Most of the games I remember from that time would only run from an installed folder on a HDD, and came with an install script to unpack a multi-disk-spanned compressed set of files from the floppies. This was presuming that you had something like a 40 to 60MB hard drive in your PC, or larger, and wanted to dedicate 10MB of it to the new expensive game you just purchased.
