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.

Ok surely it's not VRAM. But my cpu is a 12700k, and while it's not the fastest anymore, you would think it's enough for this game. It's using some fairly standard DDR4 ram, though. Not the fastest nor the slowest. I do wonder if memory bandwidth speed has anything to do with it, but it's all speculation.
