The fact that the game is unplayable on an HDD is really upsetting. That's it, I can't form an opinion on the rest because the stuttering is so bad that I cannot play it.
I've gotten a lot of replies to this and I don't really care to argue. I know SSDs are better for loading assets. Tech is my job. I understand that. I do not agree that HDDs are deprecated. Y'all are really angry about this and should take a few steps back.
An ssd is the best bang for the buck upgrade to a slow machine in my experience. Putting even a cheap $40 Kingston one in my grandmas old ass computer took it from unusable to decent speeds for web browsing/office applications/etc. I highly recommend you get one.
I have an SSD and an HDD. There's not room on my SSD for games.
