Play GTA 5, Minecraft and other games on USB stick?

Hi, I was just wondering if I could play on a normal USB stick, from Transcend 128 GB, to PC games like GTA 5, Minecraft and other games. Since I do not want to waste my hard drive like that. Is that possible? LG!

Theoretically already. However, it could take longer to load the cutscenes and start the game.

Thank you for your quick reply!

Btw minecraft could be problems or will create the pc files on your pc. Minecraft needs java and will therefore create "linkage" with the PC if you can say so

Oh well, yes, with Minecraft, that is still so with the memory.

Minecraft can be installed on a USB stick, GTA V probably less.

Be aware that this will result in a huge loss of performance.

It is already possible! But not recommended. You receive performance restrictions and a USB stick can only be used e.g. Move 1 000 000 GB of data back and forth. After that, it is broken, which is achieved faster in such an installation / use where it is constantly on it, as in a normal use. (The 1 000 000 GB was just one example, I just do not know it)
