Do equipment changes really make a difference for most golfers? I understand someone who has ten year old clubs upgrading, but someone who plays regularly changing clubs a year or two after buying equipment, will it make that much of a difference?

Yes, absolutely. Went from a TSR2 driver to a Paradym and picked up 15-20 yds, and my dispersion chart is so much tighter. Paradym is literally the best driver I have ever hit.

1) getting the right lessons
2) having a good fitter
3) club technology
That is usually the order of help - if you are already decent, then yes, technology can help if paired right with your swing

Golf is a weird psychological game. If you don’t think it will help changing often then it probably won’t. If having new gear gives you more confidence then it probably will help. That’s why some pros constantly mess with their bag, some have 5 year old irons and woods and 10 year old 3 woods. To say it isn’t going to help us an ignorant statement.

Depends on the golfer on whether it helpsor hurts I guess.
Changing clubs has always been a hobby for me from the bombsquad golf.com days. It never hurt my game and I never had kids to put through college.
I think the new foam injection molded irons are the best thing to happen for the average golfer now.

I club/shaft fitting will make more of a difference. If it's just a 2 year gap, no, it's not making a big difference. Taylormades new driver is basically their Sim driver from 2ish years ago but instead of blue, it's red.
My newest driver replaced a 4-5 year old driver, and I get the same distance but it is definitely more forgiving. But for all I know the Calloway driver from 4 years ago was more forgiving than the Ping I was hitting at the time.

maybe, but buying gear is the best part of any hobby
