I saw Alan Wake II is also recommended to be run from an SSD. I don't play the latest titles so my question is, is this a new trend or has it been like this for some time?

SSDs have gotten so cheap and fast recently.

Most games now assume you have one. Games are generally built around having minimal or even no loading screens. So fast storage is a must.
