        I want to signal boost that GeForce now option! It looks gorgeous at everything ultra, although it’s not really necessary for the game to make an impression. But it is nice to look at via GFN ✨

        But I realize that we probably shouldn’t lean too heavily on that option, lest we discourage devs from actually making native Mac ports…

    Just an additional note that Sonoma’s ‘Gaming Mode’ has bumped up the frame rate quite considerably for me.

    I never play on Mac M1, should I? I have a ps5, how would performance compare to that? If m1 might actually have comparable performance I might need to get into it and have games streamed using steamlink to my tv.

      Currently it doesn’t really matter how good performance is on a mac there are very few games supported. This will probably change in the future with the new game porting toolkit tho.

      Wait, what? I didn’t know they had newer games as well. Did that change at one point or has it always been this way?

    Going to get this just encourage the Devs.

    Bloody with Valve. would recompile any of their Mac games to be 64 bit/M1 compatible. I want my TF2 back!
