All platforms struggled to play this game and keep cool.
I have run Subnautica since it was in Early Access. Currently, I am running some older games - Elder Scrolls V Fallout 3 Elder Scrolls IV Disco Elyseum Dark Souls Remastered and Subnautica. Now, a virtual machine interface called Parallels allows me to run more Windows games.
Other games that require Windows can be run via a Wine wrapper called CrossOver. I can run some games natively via Steam (MacOS). Gaming on Apple is a mixed bag since most developers have ignored that platform for good reason. But, my expectations for replacement machines have come way down.īack to the M1 topic at hand. I will always need to have a gaming laptop for work-travel. I whole heartedly agree with Fox that desktops are the way to go. But, I quickly realized that I had virtually no control over these expensive pieces of hardware. I drooled over getting my P870 and then my Eluktronics. If we are going to have BGA rammed down our yacks, at least have some control over what we get. Upgrades to these items defeat my goal for getting this machine in the first place - to experiment. There were a number of questions I asked myself before getting the Mini such as how much RAM and SSD storage I would need. Why do I need to listen to the RTX 2070 Super Turbo or the custom cooling pump and radiator fans? Hardcore gaming - hell yes. When sitting in front of a computer at home all day, listening to My $5000 Lumos all day gets old.
While sitting on my brains realizing I haven't been to my office in Germantown, MD since March 2020, I wondered if the Mac Mini could be used for daily routine tasks such as teleworking watching Youtube videos check NBR forum posts etc. My Digital Storm Lumos is connected via the DisplayPort. I have it set up with an HDMI cable to my 27" 1440p display. At $699, the M1 Mac Mini is essentially a throw-away.
Considering how turned off I have become with buying BGA turdbooks, I felt an urge to get a cheap M1 Mac Mini and start experimenting.
