If developers actually supported macOS, it would be a way better form factor over PCs. PCs consume ludicrous amounts of power, while my M1 Max MacBook Pro could run Baldur’s Gate 3 at max graphics with no performance issues. On battery. Over extended periods. Make ARM better already.
It seems Apple is making a run at this again. And they have all the pieces this time. And the industry is very mature, and the tech landscape has become rather flat across consoles and PCs.
The PC world as a whole is now seriously eyeing ARM as their base too.
The Switch is already ARM, and very successful. With a follow up that will be the same architecture.

Now’s the time if there ever was one.
People being the people making the games.
Apple’s love affair with Metal and the utter lack of Vulkan support for ages on Apple silicon slowed down/totally killed anyone porting games.
This really didn’t get sorted out until pretty recently, and shit’s gotten better in the last six months or a year.
Hopefully it keeps getting ports and such, but it took WAY too damn long to even be in a position for this to start happening.
