You don't *need* one, but having an SSD definitely enhances the Starfield experience. Who wants to wait forever to land on a new planet?
Hot take: SSDs are overrated. Just turn down the settings a bit and you'll be fine on an HDD.
I played the demo on my buddy鈥檚 SSD-equipped machine, and it was buttery smooth. Totally worth the investment!
