That still doesn't make the SSD as minimum requirement for the bulk of PC games. And bulk of games using HDD as baseline.

What games require really is up to the developer.

The hardware is there for them to use, has been for years, guess the wait was for the rest of the industry to catch up.

But some games on PC did showcase advantages with an SSD with less object and texture pop-in, higher load times and so forth.

With console finally moving to that standard perhaps in a couple years PC will also have SSD as minimum (or similar solutions as you put with RAM) so more changes mainly on how game is made and played can be seem.
