I'm playing through Witcher 3 for the second time... on a PS4 Pro. For $400, it's an AWESOME and HASSLE-FREE gaming experience. (Based on my experience, and what I've heard announced, the PS5 will be a day-1 purchase for me.)

Sure, it won't look QUITE as nice as running on the $8,500 rig my son now uses for Fortnite and Minecraft, but it still looks GOOD. AND you don't get surprised by Windows 10 random breakages and forced updates. AND you don't have to put up with needing to register accounts to download your mouse, keyboard, and video drivers.

Whatever bad things can be said about gaming on a Mac, I'm DONE with gaming on Windows. No mods? Whatever. No problems.

8500 for minecraft? I play that on my 13" mbpro with the integrated graphics decelerator...

The original purchaser paid that. Lightning hit it. I replaced the mobo, and 3 of the 4 hard drives. I've had it for 10 years, upgraded to an SSD, and upgraded the video card 3 times. I played on it for years. It's now my kid's box. My point is that this all Windows is useful for, for me, now.

Have you tried running a Windows VM under macOS with the GPU passed through?

I don't think there's any way to do this on macOS right now.

Oof - I left it unfinished for more than a year. Finally got around to picking it up a little, maybe a month ago, and got completely hooked until I finished it + DLCs. It was a true gaming delight - the DLCs are amazing as well, and, as a whole, it's easily the best game of all times for me - and I believe I played almost every significant RPG ever...I found it so much more worth my time than movies or playing anything else.

It really is an exceptional game. It took me three years to finish it. It almost felt that I avoided playing it sometimes incase it ended.

Now we’ve the Netflix series to look forward to and Cyberpunk 2077 from CDPR.
