SSD requirement is utter BS

[ShatteredPumpkin]

you dont need an SSD at all the game almost still looks and runs the same as the legacy version and loading times etc are no different i dunno what rockstar smoked and why they came up with lets tell people you need an SSD which is not true at all loads just like legacy no additional stutters or anything the game feels the same on my HDD like before was expecting maybe get a few stutters when it says SSD needed but as said thats utter bs game runs fine like legacy xD

The whole thing was to bring GTA + to pc

Good thing you got the Legacy.

No SSD in 2025?

At least you can play the legacy and not have an issues because if you do not have an SSD now, then your performance might be a huge hindering factor

It says Win10 in minimum, so you don't NEED Win11 to run it

Even Windows is painful to use with HDD

I suspect the decision was made to improve load times, which it hasn't done.

exactly :D thats why i dont waste space on my SSD for a game that states it needs to have an SSD while it doesnt xD theres games that actually do need it otherwise the will have awful tons of bugs and loading issues like dead space remake and a game like gta enhance who doesnt need it at all xD

An SSD is required if you want to take full advantage of DirectStorage technologies,preferably a Gen 4 drive

SSd space is cheaper these days, maybe you need an upgrade if you don't have the space
