Dang we are actually getting "SSD required" on the system requirements
You think a mechanical hdd is sufficient for playing a 100gb game? That would be so painful it’s not even funny.
Ps4 had a mechanical hard drive and I played a few enormous games on that. Don't remember it being a problem so I don't think that's such a hard and fast rule
It's not. The size of the game isn't the limiting factor.
Anecdotally, I played Horizon Forbidden West on PS4 and occasionally got loading screens while out and about in the open world. I assume the HDD was the cause of this.
