What game encouraged you to make your new PC, or upgrade? (self.games)

Since the minimum and recommended specs for Starfield have come out, I've been budgeting to do a big upgrade on my PC with an AMD 6800 xt and a fancy new 1 TB SSD (which is the first game I've ever seen that requires an SSD) just so I can run the game in all it's space epicness.

What was the game that you were so excited for that you made the jump to upgrade your PC to the next gen of hardware? New or old!

Do not buy parts for Starfield until it releases and reviewers report in.

I most recently upgraded due to no mans sky constantly struggling. But upgraded enough to get cyberpunk and path tracing. With it being out for iver 2 years when i upgraded, those hardware targets were known.
This machine should cover me for starfield though.

Starfield is unknown.
