Something Is Taking up all my storage

So I Install Crossover then Steam then BeamNG Then I Delete Crossover and the steam app since BeamNG does not exist in the applications. but somehow in my applications folder it has took up 62.84GB Of Storage? BeamNG is About 57GB But I deleted it. but then I realised it was the system apps that I don't need taking that much? but they are not that much. the maximum was safari at 1.64GB.

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 13.7

Aside from everything else, Steam games you install are never in /Applications. They are installed in a steamapps folder somewhere in your personal Library folder (not the root /Library, the one under your home folder). If you deleted Steam from /Applications without removing any games you downloaded from inside Steam, they are still there taking up space in your Library.
