Steam works, but most games can't be bothered to provide macOS builds, and some that do are 32 bit and thus cannot be run (macOS only supports 64 bit executables nowadays).
- mayoff 2y agoLots of older Mac Steam games support 64-bit but show the incompatibility warning in the store anyway. It’s annoying but with Steam’s return policy it’s not a real risk to test such games.
- vanchor3 2y agoLots of newer Mac Steam games do this as well. It's quite annoying as it also hides them from your library when you use the macOS filter.
- ddtaylor 2y agoYes, but I am not running games for Linux. I play mostly games that are built for Windows, but they just launch in Linux because Valve made Proton. I don't know much about it because I only use x86 on my workstations, but I believe it even can work across architecture because the Pi guys have done that too.
