Cyberpunk 2077, bought it on sale and my 125 gb SSD, FX8350 and rx580 weren't terribly happy. Grabbed a used ryzen 3600 and used 2080 super for $200. Board, ram, and m.2 drive for about the same new. Now I'm debating the 5600xcd or just hold off till I want the AM5 chips, that'll depend on how Starfield runs.

For me, it was Cyberpunk 2077. I wanted to run around Night City with ultra graphics and raytracing. Too bad it launched in such a badly optimized state.
A few games have gotten me to do that over the years.
Mass Effect: Legendary Edition was what finally convinced me to fit a 1TB SSD, and Control was what convinced me it was finally time to get a ray-tracing card.
My first PC ever was built because I really wanted to play modded Skyrim, Minecraft, and Metro 2033. i3 3225 and a 7750, later upgraded to a 2500k with a 7950. That machine was insanely badass. When the i5 and 7950 were overclocked, they outperformed my brother's 4th gen i5 with a 970.
While this wasn’t the sole reason (I was just kinda due for an upgrade anyway), I was interested in playing Half-life Alyx and Star Wars Squadrons in VR.
Half life alyx was the inspiration for me too. In the end I mostly play Slay the spire and cities skylines on it...
DCS World is the biggest reason that my most recent build had 64Gb of RAM.
