No idea if the games will break, but I usually reformat my OS SSD at least once a year. It won't break if you delete files or format the whole drive.

It's very hard to understand what you're asking here.

 

if you delete the files of a game, or any other application, from the drive where it's installed, the game will stop working until it's reinstalled.

Basically every SSD on the market has an endurance (usually expressed in TB written) in its spec sheet. Edit: As an example, if a 1TB drive has a listed endurance of 220 TB's written, that means you can fill up the drive, erase it, and then fill it up again 220 times before it should start to fail. 

 

Deleting doesn't really matter because deleting in a file in the OS doesn't actually erase it usually, it just designates that part of the drive as available to write new data on. That's why it's occasionally possible to recover deleted files from a drive using the right tools, because the files are still there and haven't been overwritten by something else yet.

There is no reason to use traditional HDD's now except for storage of big libraries of media (movies, etc). Even NVMe SSD's are now ridiculously cheap.

Though the endurance rating is often far, far lower than the drive will actually last. Most drives, when tested to failure, last in the PB, not the TB range.
