Starfield also requires an SSD, a first for a modern triple-A PC game.

I recall the same being said about Cyberpunk 2077, and I'm not sure that was the first either.

Cyberpunk doesn't require an SSD, it had "SSD recommended" under it's storage but not required. Starfield lists it as a requirement.

Cyberpunk also has a "HDD mode" in its options.

Because you load every time you walk through a door.

I stand corrected.

To be fair, Cyberpunk 2077 came out in the peak of Covid GPU scarcity, I was still gaming on a GTX1080 at it's release and the only way I could have a decent experience was running it at 50% resolution scale with 100% sharpening.
