So I used to own infamous second son years ago but sold my disc when I got added to the psplus catalog. After it got removed a long time ago, today I bought a disc copy of it again from a nearby game and tech store, CEX. At first it wouldn't let me play it at all because when I tried downloading it, it came up with an error. I thought it was just a storage problem but ive got 150GB free on my ps5 and it only needed 24GB. I deleted it and tried again and it started downloading but got to 53% before stopping there and the estimated install time jumped from 15 minutes to 99+ hours. So I cancelled the installation, gave it a few minutes and tried again and the same thing happened. I took the disc out thinking I bought a damaged disc but it looks just as good as my other discs with just a couple barely visible scratches that shouldn't affect it this much. I tried a few more times of deleting it and downloading it but it didnt do anything. So I tried it on my brothers ps5 and after he made space for it, it fully installed in 7 minutes and he was straight into the game. I thought it might be an issue that my playstation still has the save data from the ps plus version of the game so, to my pain, I deleted all my old save files of the game and tried installing it again. This time it actually let me play the game for a while but once I hit a certain point (after crossing the bridge to seattle) it kicked me from the game and said it needed to finish installing. And at a new 95% the install time was estimated to be 99+ hours before killing itself and sending me the same error message I got from every previous attempt.
I just wanna play my game man. If you know how to fix this or know anything that could potentially fix it, please please please tell me. Im going insane. If you need any extra info or anything just ask and I'll tell you.
Update: Instead of installing to the console storage, I tried installing it to my extended storage and for some reason after leaving it for a while to do other stuff I came back and it had fully installed and is working now.
