Shogun total war 2 : Fall of the samurai

[omarthefirst]

I ‘ve bought the game (Steam Game) and it is consisting of 3 disks and while am installing it ,I noticed the following:
1-Disk (2) wasn’t even mentioned for the installation process
2-The game need days to be playable (Need to download nearly 11-13 GB)

Is that NORMAL??

Thanks in advance for your any sort of help

I haven't bought FotS on disk, but I didn't get anything like that when installing.
What I think you've done is you started downloading it off steam instead of installing.

Make sure that you put the disk into your computer and run it from my computer and switch disks when it tells you to.

If you have Shogun 2 already installed you won't use all the FOTS disks, as I discovered when I installed my retail copy of FOTS. It appears FOTS comes with a lot of the data for Shogun 2 to allow for the FOTS Vs Shogun 2 Armies multiplayer, which it of course doesn't need to install if you already have Shogun 2 on the system. As for the large download, I think I also had that happen, but it was a while back.

As far as I understand things, the discs are obsolete and worthless due to updates etc. You're actually downloading the whole game from scratch effectively.
