Baldur’s Gate 3 is currently taking up all the storage space I would give to Bethesda’s sci-fi RPG.

    Damn dude. You only have ~200GB of storage space? Upgrade your HDD/SSD, for real. I don’t even review games for a living and I have 2.5TB. I can definitely fit both games. And then some.

    This artificial battle of the VASTLY DIFFERENT STYLE RPGs is fucking bizarre and just a made up issue to get clicks, I swear to Christ.

      Starfield has ssd listed as “required”. Even if it runs from a HDD it might be horrible, like with No Man’s Sky.

        Eh, With games like these a 1TB M2 SSD is kinda required to have, I have one and I’m wanting to have two already tbh.

          When it comes to cheap ssds M2 barely has an advantage over SATA, not in any practical sense anyway.

          Just got another Crucial one for the wife’s PC. Was like £95, but that is PCI-E 4.0 rather than the Evo 970’s PCI-E 3.0.

          Won’t make a jot of difference for what she does, but nice to have it in case gaming actually uses that extra speed in the future. I don’t even think most PS5 games make use of the extra speed right now. Certainly nothing that shows up in loading benchmarks, but I suspect when it does show itself it will be from single frame hitches where it’s loading things on the fly.
