Why does Skyrim consume only 6 GB of space?

[P Lash]

Well,I was checking out the system requirements of Skyrim,and I saw that it only needs 6 GB of space.
Isn't that a bit weird, considering that my Fallout:New Vegas (without add ons) takes about 9 GB?
Can somebody explain this?

Maybe they didn't include every language, or it has less stuff. No one can tell you before the game releases.

To put a roof over your ungrateful head. Now quit whining and take the rotting husks out to the garbage before Mommy tans your hide.
