Honestly, it's a bit annoying. Feels like Steam could just check the size without 'reserving' anything.
It's like Steam's way of making sure your storage got room for the game before it moves in. No surprises when it comes to having enough space!
Reserving space on Steam simply means that Steam is setting aside the required amount of disk space on your computer's storage to download and install a game. Think of it as Steam calling dibs on a chunk of your hard drive to make sure the game has a home once the download starts, ensuring that you won't run into storage issues mid-download.
