I think every subscription that I have went up in price in the last 12 months. I'm so tired of it. Time to reevaluate what I actually need.

With the technology they have in Apple Silicon... it's just completely bizarre that this is all they have on offer with regards to gaming. Yes, there are ports of blockbuster games such as Resident Evil etc... but they are in the minority. Even Apple TV as it is could be running so much more than this...

Are the same team that developed the Touch Bar, in charge of gaming on Mac too??? great technology, extremely poor use of it.

Apple’s relationship to gaming is really weird. It seems like they’re always on the cusp of embracing gaming only to refuse to pull the trigger on any real gaming moves. It’s odd that a computer company like Apple has gone all in on services and their own streaming service while gaming seems like a secondary consideration.

I got three free months of Apple Arcade when I purchased my Mac Studio. The best game I’ve found and the only game I have installed, is solitaire. I’m not going to continue the subscription when my three months are up.
