I was happy with my 16gb until I went to make a small edit to something in Starfield and saw the system requirements for the toolset needs 32gb just to load the core game's master files. Without even trying to open the 3D graphical view of a map cell or any DLC esms, it easily takes 12-14gb just to have the damn .esm loaded in.
