So I bought Days Gone on the Winter Sale on Steam and before I play any new game on Steam I check the guides section on Steam to see if there are things that can improve the game. so I found the guide on how to reduce the game size which is not that much like it's just 15 Gigs but hey if you are like me and like to have a lot of games installed then this script is for you.
How It Works:
Note: the siepresents.pak file should not be deleted as it is a required file the script takes care of it so don't worry.
Source Code (its a mess):

How It Works:
- Download and extract the zip file.
- Paste the file in the base folder of the game installation directory (name Days Gone).
- Execute the included script (Remove_Unused_Lang_Files.bat).
- Follow the on-screen instructions to select the language file you wish to keep.
- Enjoy!!
Note: the siepresents.pak file should not be deleted as it is a required file the script takes care of it so don't worry.
