You claimed SSD's were overhyped because we still have load times but DeS proves that wrong. 

And we still do have load times today. Did God of War 2016 have load times back on the old PS4 HDD? I certainly did and they were disguised very well.

You honestly think DeS couldn't be achieved on previous hardware even with no loading screens. Its as linear a game as they come.

Third party games aren't going to be utilizing the capabilities of the SSD especially for multiplatform games that are cross gen. That doesn't mean that load times can't be optimized to 2 - 3 seconds like in Miles Morales or Demon's Souls, and it doesn't mean third party developers won't optimize load times for the SSD once they aren't shackled to last gen hardware. When it comes to DeS, it certainly can be scaled back to run on the PS4, but it won't load nearly as fast.
