  1. thinking about what it would look like for Apple to do a real push for videogames on Mac. i don't think they would do it, i think the tactics necessary to succeed are completely non-Apple. but i think they could if they wanted.

      this inspired by one of the shiny product images on the "upgrade to Ventura" page being No Man's Sky, a game that came out in 2016 and still isn't available on OS X
