Yes correct.
Here is my folder size:


Isnt this against EULA?

There could definitely be some discussion about this being against EULA.
But this method has been used and shared by Official Diablo Partners since a couple of months into the game release.
And sadly with RotW increased loading times it has become more valid than ever.

Yes it really depends on your method. But you you just run them from shortcut copies. Then put command in targets

just tried this for the first time in a while and since upgrading my pc to ddr5 m2 and 9950x3d. i think it helped some but it wasn't as significant as the other times i did it. it's maybe 25% faster. maybe that's just cause my pc is faster baseline.

i'm kinda just rambling, but let us know if we ever figure anything else out beyond this to improve load times (that won't get us banned of course)

I tried the casc method and it didn't work for Xbox. How can I send files directly to Xbox? Thumb stick?

Nicely explained, short and precise. Thanks!
Do you plan to prepare this kind of short dummy-proof guide on multiboxing?
