You have to know what compression a game is using.

Your archive is larger because you did not deduplicated the data (srep or xtool:dd1..5) and you did not compress the data at the end. However if you precompress the data with xtool zlib and the archive is larger than the original input, you have possibly found out that the input is zlib compressed.
