I don't play video games, so I have no opinion of them. I actually do play Kerbal Space Program, though I think that it is a few hundred megabytes, certainly not even a single gigabyte.

In that case, I feel that I'm getting a decent experience for the size.

Would you argue the same for a 60 MB Hello, World application?

Depends, if someone presented a hello world example in unreal engine I would expect the binary to be larger than 60MB.
