People always say things like this or "Apple doesn't care about gaming" which simply is not true, especially when we look at how far we've come in recent years:

We have the METAL API which is getting constant updates. Apple silicon is getting constant eGPU upgrades and getting fast and faster. There is a new Gaming Center that is in the new betas, and more AAA titles are coming to Mac like Cyberpunk, Balder's Gate, Death Stranding, Resident Evil 7, Rise of Tomb Raider, Borderlands 3, Assassin's Creed, No Man's Sky, and Valheim to name a few. Not all of these are AAA, but they're great games nonetheless.

Apple is putting effort into gaming, but it's simply not going to happen over night. This doesn't sit well in an instant-gratification age. I'd love to simplify my desk setup and get rid of my gaming PC, but we have to be patient.

I don't understand people who say "Mac will never game" as if they have a crystal ball. Is gaming a priority for Mac? No, not exactly, but we can't deny they are working on it and they have the resources to do it.
Instant gratification? You’re probably a Millennial, as we have been promised great Apple gaming support since at least 1994, just be completely disappointed after each unfulfilled announcement.
Go ask Gabe Newell or any of the really big developers if they care about Metal (or basically every API supported by Apple before it).

Apple Arcade is for a different audience and Apple will lose subscribers if they jacked up the price.
So Adult Apple Arcade ,,,,,,, that would be AAA games. 😂

Absolutely depressing, nothing else. Shut it down and give it up, Apple.

I wish Apple jacked up the price of Apple Arcade to $15 but include all the AAA games that Apple Silicon has to offer
