I’ve been playing the game since it was released on Switch. It was actually pretty great. But heck, there were a lot of crashes.

I’m playing on my M1 Max now and it’s brilliant. The detail it’d been missing out on…!

I know Mac’s aren’t known for gaming but I’m so glad that this game was one of the first that got ported over to Mac silicon.

The only issue I have is that my controller drops out and reconnects every 15 mins. Have to wire it in to avoid the drop outs. Have reported the issue to hello games.

Yeah this controller issue on Mac for NMS seems pretty common. Another commenter on this thread mentioned they don’t get the issue with their Xbox controller. I’ve tried with both a PS5 and Switch Pro controller, same issue.

That is interesting about the fewer hitches. On switch is was constant. So the difference is night and day for me. But respect for the effort of porting it to the switch.

I’m really glad that Mac is starting to see some gaming love. Hope it continues, especially with the success of PortingKit.
