"body": "He meant the unpacking of the files you did download. This can take a long time if your CPU or mass storage is slow.\n\nBack when the game (PoE1) released on Steam you had to repack the whole game every time you did change anything on it. This meant a hotfix with less than 1MB in size took 1 second to download but then you needed like 20 minutes to repack the whole game. Back then it was like 25GB tho...\n\nSince then GGG changed how the files get patched and packaged and fixed this issue. I think thats 2 or 3 years ago now. So I expect PoE2 to be quite fast, but we will see in a few days."

To accommodate this, we’ll be making the standalone PC client available for download at 5pm on Thursday, December 5th (PST). Please note that when patching begins for Path of Exile 2 Early Access you may also have a few remaining files that you’ll need to update as well.\n\nAfter downloading the Path of Exile 2 client, you won't be able to login until Early Access launches at 11am on Friday, December 6th (PST). If you're not sure, check the timer on our [website](https://www.pathofexile.com/).\n\nThe client download will be available through the Path of Exile 2 website, but we'll also be providing a torrent with the client download at the same time.\n\nWe're still looking into making pre-download available for other platforms and will update this post when they become available.\n\nUpdates for other platforms:\n\n* Xbox - pre-download is already available. There will likely be updates on launch.\n* PlayStation - Founder's packs should go live 24 hours before Early Access starts. Purchasing one of these packs should allow for pre-download on PS5.",
