Anyway to play Skyrim without massive download?

What is the point in buying a hard copy of Syrim when it automatically downloads the full version from steam. I understand it may need a small update, but 5GB?!!?!?! surely theres a way to just put the disc in, install the game and play?Anyway to play Skyrim without massive download?
It was starting to do that for me too, because it said the steam servers were overloaded. just delete the game in steam app, then delete it from library so the game is greyed out and not downloading. Try installing the game again from the disk. It took me 3 tries until it didn't show the server overloaded and unable to handle your request error, and actually started to install from the disk.Anyway to play Skyrim without massive download?
