https://daisydiskapp.com/ is not bad TBH. Blazing fast, $10 for 5 macs, lifetime. Rare sort of payment these days. But requires more user-knowledge about the stuff you want to actually kill

Finished Kingdom Come: Deliverance II. Took more than a year (release February 4, 2025) to do everything. One of the best games ever, definitely in the one row with KDC1, Stalker 2 and Skyrim.
