Better than it used to be, but still not ideal. Apple Silicon gave it a nice boost—M-series chips run a lot of games shockingly well, especially with Metal and new tools like Game Porting Toolkit 2. Still, you're dealing with limited native support and a lot of devs just don't bother with Mac ports. It's fine for indies and some AAA via wrappers or ports, but if you're serious, you're better off dual-booting or just grabbing a Windows machine. Mac gaming is like vegan cheese—technically possible, sometimes surprisingly decent, but not the default for a reason.

it doesn't even make sense, it's not even a good food analogy. What the fuck does he mean by arbitrary needs? What problems do PCs have that macs don't?

I will paypal $100 to anyone that can link to a reupload of the video where he complains about getting bullied online while playing skyrim at 10FPS (cut down to 5FPS) on his mac.
I remember that it ends with him sighing and going silent once he's killed in the game, as if the game itself joined in on the bullying.

Would you rather get a $5 meal from McDonald's in 5 minutes or spend $40 and spend 45 minutes preparing your fruits and veggies platter?

even an M3 ultra, apples highest end chip at its best is equivalent to a 4070 in AAA titles
however, they perform great in MMO's where shit like players actually bring down performance the most: WoW, FF14 and Runelite all have native support and even a base M4 performs similarly to the highest-end desktop CPU's
