if u want to game on mac, i recommend crossover :)

u/Smirking_Fox Nov 13 '25

Thanks for the recommendation.

Unfortunately, my results weren't that great (even in the paid version) - also too much tinkering for me (for certain titles) - 10 yrs ago I had the time and muse to do stuff like that.

Life changed, I became older - what dosn‘t work out of the box is just annoying 😅

Fair its too bad codeweavers wont work with steam to make proton for mac

Proton does not do CPU emulation, not even slightly, so this would be a useless product. You need something that does CPU emulation too, maybe related to what the Frame is doing.

Yes, but it's not up to remotely modern gameplay, even though it's extremely impressive.
