The main problem is that they include all of the 2K-4K textures. Aside from physical blu-ray release, digital downloads should give the option of downloading the complete all res option installations or just the 1080p with reduced install and download size.
Maybe 1080p as default and then 2k-4k standalones "patches".
Games have offered hi-res optional downloads for years, both for higher-res monitors, and GPUs with the power to store and process the richer textures. No reason they couldn't offer the same here, if indeed they aren't.

Quit inflating the hardware requirements and making people flip, I thought Toms was reliable. lol
Mind saying exactly where that came from? Or better yet, how old it is? Recommended specs can often change throughout development. If that's an old pre-order box, there's nothing saying the specs listed there are guaranteed to remain the same. I don't speak German, but I'd actually be very surprised if it didn't say somewhere on that box that the system specs were subject to change.

I still can never get over the fact that developers sometime list requirements that have gpu's from two different tiers.

It depends on how the game was coded. There's nothing strange if a game can run just as well on a weaker NVidia or AMD card if the graphics were optimized for one over the other.
