minus-squarewise_pancake@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up8·10 months agoRosetta 2 seems pretty good still. It’s not free translation, but it’s viable. I don’t expect macOS to be the best platform for games, I just want them broadly playable.

minus-squarekautau@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·10 months agoA lot of that work is going directly into https://developer.apple.com/games/game-porting-toolkit/ So there is certainly overlap, though as you said, architecture emulation is a different beast
