TL;DR: System requirements are ranging from M1 to M1 Pro or better Apple silicon chips. The game is priced at $60 on Steam.

Yes, but it's highly unlikely they can reuse that effort. TF2 uses an older version of source, so you either end up having to update everything to a newer version or redo all the effort you've already put in to porting source, but for an older version. Now multiply that by the number of source games.

Valve is worth billions of dollars. TF2 almost certainly generates enough income to justify the resources needed to recompile the game. Again, I totally understand that it requires effort but it’s still dumb.

Oh I'm sure they can justify spending the time porting the game. I just can't blame them for not doing so when Apple's policy is to not give a shit.
