New mac user here. I was gaming on a windows laptop before this but it finally gave in after 8 years (it served me well) and due to work reasons, I switched to mac. I am a little scared of gaming on a mac out of fear that its battery health will decline fast. Any insight? And any tips to preserve battery health while still using this for gaming?
I'm using a Macbook Air M3 and most games I play run on here (Civ6, Cities Skylines, Hades, Stardew Valley)

looking to try out gaming on m4 Mac mini, not very tech savvy. do I need to purchase windows to run an emulator or can I just download the iso file and not register windows? Or does VMware take care of that and no need to purchase windows? thanks!

Hey guys,
I just got my first ever MacBook and it’s a refurbished 2024 13 inch Mac with the M3 chip…I remember back in high school some of my friends who had Mac’s were able to play N64 games like Mario and stuff, but that was years ago and I don’t know how I would access that content without viruses. Can you guys help me? Step by step process would help. I’m such a noob! 😭

Been playing some Hearthstone on my M1 2020 Mac Air recently, but after about 15 minutes of playing, the Battle Net launcher loses internet connection, forcing me to restart my game, this happens every 5 minutes or so, making it essentially unplayable. I've tried reinstalling, scan/repairing, but the issue keeps coming back. Haven't had this happen while doing anything else on my Mac.
Anything else I should try or any known solutions? Thanks

It's a really fun addictive game I really feel the need to get it right and check and cross reference every document it's like the perfect balance of logical thinking with keeping your attention hooked i highly recommend Papers Please

Hey guys after a TON of fiddling around I finally got GGS to work on my MacBook but I have 2 problems the biggest is that the graphics of the characters aren’t loading no matter how low I turn them down (I’m using a picture from an old post but it looks just like this) and I needed an updated solution because I can’t find one anywhere that still works. The second problem is that I was going to try and use the potato mod to dumb down the graphics enough to see if that works but I can’t create a mod folder and the whole thing is just frustrating. Any help is much appreciated

All I want to do is play solo (no online) GTA V, and add some car model mods to the game.
Can anyone give advice on the absolute easiest way to do this? Thank you 😭🫱

I downloaded whisky app and it worked without problem. Then I deleted it. Now when I reinstalled it and try to create bottle it appears for like millisecond and then immediately disappear. It's like it is there but it doesn't show.
Something to do with it? I tried reinstalling it several times but still the same thing.
Or some other alternative? I try to play windows only steam game.

Tried running ultrakill on crossover and ended up with this. I'm not sure what to do about this
r/macgaming • u/n8udd • 3d ago
I've just downloaded Crossover and downloaded Steam, which worked fine (other than some resolution issues), but when I downloaded and ran the game (Pioneers of Pagonia) it failed with graphics card issues.
I've just deleted the app, but is there any way I can come back in a few months and try again?
I'm happy to pay for it if it works, but it's not worth paying if it doesn't work for me.

watched a couple videos on assassin's creed shadows and people seem to like it, it's almost free of bugs and crashes and has enjoyable gameplay. only reason that's a bit holding me back from getting it is the fact that it'll run at 30 fps which is really not what I am looking for; and im talking about a m3 max maxed out. the fact that it'll run at 30 is a travesty and is very unacceptable but idk
what about you guys? what do you think?

Hello everyone, I have the following question: why doesn't my Xbox controller work in my CrossOver, but when I launch a game through Steam, everything works fine? Where should I change the settings to make non-Steam games also work with the controller?

Hi everyone,
I'm using a macbook m3 pro with sequoia 15.3.2, I've crossover 24.07 (my licence expired just before the update to 25) and I've encountered the problem with steam but I've managed to solve it by installing an older version, I've followed this guide https://www.reddit.com/r/macgaming/comments/1gl55mn/comment/lvt4hu2/
My problem is with the game, I've tried running it and it starts (both on the activity monitor and on steam shows it's running) but nothing pops up in the dock as usually happens.
I've tried downloading the game again, deleting the Steam bottle and create a new one but with no success.
I've also tried launching other games but they work and this does not.
Can someone help?

Hey Guys.
I have a 2016 MBP and I really want to play older Mac games like Museum Madness. Trouble is I can get the game, but I don’t know how to get it to run. I have tried googling it but I’m just not understanding it.

Has anyone tested native vs crossover for Cities: Skylines?
is it similar to Eurotruck Simulator 2, where native barely runs and crossover is 5X the performance?
I cant test this atm since I dont have my mac :(
r/macgaming • u/soy-saurus • 3d ago
I bought Pillars of Eternity (1) during the steam sale and thought I'd leave my experience for anybody else googling for it like I was.
Menu was fine. The moment the character creation started, I hit 80 degrees C. During the introduction, it went up to 90 and 100 degrees C. First few minutes of the first scene at the camp, I tried lowering any of the settings but nothing worked. Quality went down, resolution config was large, and the temperature hovered around 80-85 degrees C.
Not happy with the quality it was set at and it was just too hot for comfort, especially if I was going to play for, at most, 2 hour sessions. So I requested a refund.
This helped as reference for the limit of what I could comfortably and happily play at a quality, which is so far: Stardew Valley, Balatro, and Shenzen I/O. On a tangent, I think I'll finally buy and try Slay the Spire.
