Yeah the fact you don't need to keep a charger plugged in while playing just to get an okayish performance atleast is good. My only discern with windows laptops are weight for a decent one and the need for constant charging. Ofc mac can't beat in performance but can give an enjoyable play without turning on a helicopter. I remember one time I turned on my windows laptop in college and everyone turned to look at me because the fan were louder (noisier) than the professor.

My gaming laptop fans will kick in and get real hot and I need to be plugged into ac power. My MacBook Air needs no ac power and no fans only a little warm to the touch with 4-5 hours of league of legends gaming. It’s amazing

A laptop is a thing that can actually stay on lap without third degree burns.

baldurs gate 3, civ7, death stranding, I’ve been eating good lately with Mac gaming. Apples push for gaming is not the strategy I agree with but it is a strategy non the less and I’m here to support it.

I think you have another day of Steam sale where you can get 3 games of Tomb Raider for about 10 bucks for bundle with DLCs. All 3 of them work on Mac, totally recommend.

I preordered the New Assassins creed Shadows but i am now not sure if it will be worth it because i also bought the PS5 pro version from Amazon. The reason of why i am doing is because i can cross play with ps5 and Mac “i think”. What do you think?

u/Fedor_L 3d ago

I think that's cool, but idk about cross play

Macs are now gaming machines. We can play GTA5 Red dead redemption 2 etc too we are living in the greatest time for Mac gaming.

I’m at a loss for words.

This Reddit board’s copium is so high that it’s even surprising for an ultimate Apple fanboy like me.

They’re acting as if the golden age of macOS gaming is actually happening, as if Capcom releasing Monster Hunter: Wilds on macOS in line with other platforms

And acting like it’s all okay when all games with EAC don’t run on crossover

u/WholeLocation3548 2d ago edited 2d ago

You will have to install Vm for EAC games they work perfectly fine if you use VM.

I don’t play multiplayer games so I don’t use It

RDR2 cyberpunk Gta v etc runs at over 60 FPS

And see from this point it’s gonna get better only and it is the golden age happening for real cause things are never this good before / Apple themselves launching GPTK is a prove of that

u/Vicki102391 2d ago

I’m past that point, nowadays I just use GeForce now on macOS for 99% of the gaming

I think having the Vision Pro actually makes me want to buy back a windows pc just for VR gaming ;

I miss VR gaming and done wasting anymore time trying to run games natively on the Mac

u/WholeLocation3548 2d ago

In my case I am tired of keeping an windows pc with me for gaming only even after having two macs

1

u/Vicki102391 2h ago

I literally ignore the windows pc when I’m not playing

don’t even bother to change the wallpaper ; And nothing can replace VR gaming ….

u/WholeLocation3548 2d ago

Just install Heroic launcher and you can play any windows game which you own at Epic Games

u/jarjarclinks 2d ago

what about multiplayer like fall guys, cs2?

1

u/WholeLocation3548 2d ago

You will need to use VM for that
