Does *.pdb is necessary?

For playing or just for debugging purposes?

Why are you looking to delete random files?

I'd keep them, even copy them somewhere else now before they get removed in a patch. Could be very useful for modding etc if they are really debug PDBs.

Are the timestamps the same as the executable and DLLs? Could mean that the game is a debug build which would be less performant

I saw suggestions to download pdb files separately, which means they are not very important for an already compiled program, only for debugging
