A comment on macOS Catalina. Parent comment

I play games on my Mac when I can play them on my PC (travelling is one reason for this). I try buy my games DRM free on GOG, and play them either on Mac or through Steam streaming (yes you can load non steam games). My Mac game library is essentially wiped out by this.

And yes, there's this Arcade, but I have no interest in playing for something which is locked down to one platform.

If I want to play something and I already own that platform, why should I prevent myself from playing it because of its exclusivity?

Do you boycott Xbox, Playstation, Switch, DS etc. exclusives too?

What about Windows-only games that aren't on Mac or other systems? There are certainly thousands of those. Do you refuse to play those either?
