Customer Reviews
Nothing to do with mac or macOS!
Don’t bother. Those guys don’t play mac games at all. In fact, they remind you in every single episode they haven’t played on a mac for years.
Indeed, they don’t know which games run on a mac and how, struggle to remember titles of newly published mac games, have no idea about settings used, performance, screen sizes, peripherals, save-games compatibility between devises, etc. I’ve been listening to them for over a year, no mac stuff in this show.
What they talk about 100% of the time is Windows gaming. And occasionally Steam Deck. That’s all. Nothing else.
Obviously they don’t follow the tech news on mac games. In the last episode, for example, they spend 30 min. talking about Steam discounts for digitalised board-games, only at the end remembering vaguely about the first ever AppStore discounting of many games.
Fun fact - on a a side topic, all digitalised board-games have mac versions, but the talkers were obviously unaware of that fact, well, how could they know, if they don’t play or own a mac?!
