and they wanted to bring games to mac??, like how?
Instant ram tar compression. What else?
A good first step would be: don't make your own proprietary graphics API (Metal) and support Khronos standards (OpenGL, Vulkan) instead.
basicly what everyone is doing except apple
I mean, I’ve been playing about 100 hours of Baldur’s Gate 3 on my M1 MacBook Pro, on the ultra preset. It runs just fine, and the machine barely gets hot while being nearly quiet. In fact, it is a very pleasant gaming experience!
Could the game run better on a dedicated gaming PC? Sure! Does it need to? Nah, not for me. The fact that I can play on the couch while my SO watches something else is worth a lot more than some extra FPS, to me.
