PoE 2 on Mac with Apple Silicon proc (M1 - M4 max)
Please GGG, when will you make a fully playable and optimized PoE2 game (also PoE 1) for Apple silicon processors?
I have an M4 max processor in my MacBook Pro, and the end of the game doesn't work for me with CrosOver, Whiskey, or Parallels. For example, when I run PoE 1 in CrossOver via Steam, for example, a build with a strong character and a battle in tier 16 maps completely crashes the game and it's impossible to play smoothly. You took a lot of money from people, so fix it as soon as possible, because we've been waiting for Apple silicon support for years. Thank you. Last bumped on Jan 23, 2025, 4:29:43 PM

The Mac client is not yet finished, but they said it will come. That you can't play the game right now, is because of Apple.
They dropped libraries from MacOS that are required for Proton. I play the game on Arch Linux, its running like a charm with Proton and DXVK. But steam stopped Proton development for Mac because of the above. Apple is the problem here. On Linux the game is playable already. Proton would work on MacOS as well, as its not that different from Linux. And it will be playable for Mac sooner or later. See it from a business point of view. The reality is, Mac gamers are rare, steam statistics from Dec 2024: OSX 1.61% +0.20% And for PoE its most probably even lower. Nobody in the world would prioritize workng hours for less than 1% of the player base. Same is for Linux. Last edited by Zalkortis#7661 on Jan 23, 2025, 3:53:21 PM

" Thats just not true. I don't like Mac as well, and I would never buy one BUT from what I see, its WAY more reliable as any Windows PC whatsoever. Windows is getting worse and worse. I see that every day, I need to work with Windows on my job and people in my office who using Mac have almost never issues with productivity, interruptions from Windows Updates, Blue Screens you name it. What I dislike on MacOS is, you have an underlying Unix but are more restricted on using it as if you had Windows installed. But it is reliable, you can't argue upon. I used Windows for more than 30 years now, and its getting more and more a nightmare. With my last computer I made a decision, as a colleague of mine playes Battlefield 4 on Linux online, and I said what? thats possible? 2020 I bough my current PC and said to myself, I will try it out and this PC won't see windows. Started with Fedora, now on Arch Linux. I will never turn back to Windows. I can do all I did with Windows, Office is also no longer a blocker, as all the office apps are online with browser available if you really need this. Never made a better decision in my life. I play all the windows games I played before, even with better performance. And no, wine is not an emulator ;-) Last edited by Zalkortis#7661 on Jan 23, 2025, 4:32:47 PM
