Yes, but recommend isn't the same thing as required. Because that means the game is still completely playable on an HDD regardless of what resolution and fidelity you run the game at. Assumingly, the experience will be compromised. We'll be finding out here in a couple of weeks.

I'm lowkey looking forward to seeing YouTube videos of people trying to run the game at 4K, Ray Tracing set to Ultra, and Ultra graphical fidelity settings on an HDD. I wanna see what kind of shenanigans it'll cause in-game

Its likely that there might be slowdowns for some parts of the game (like special effects) or long loading screens.

Oh yeah I'm fully expecting long loading screens. Basically the big question will be how will rift jumps work on an HDD? Which now that I think about it, I wonder if Nixxes was able to circumvent the lack of an SSD by instead of loading the worlds you pull yourself into in real time, they use the inevitable long loading times to load every world you'll be accessing in that level so that there isn't any hiccups in gameplay.

Idk, I'm just talking out loud on that one lol. I'm anxious to find out soon though!
