Review Note:

Game runs very smoothly with DXMT and MSYNC. However, the dialogue audio during cutscenes is either extremely quiet or completely silent and therefore not an enjoyable experience. The common Windows fix of switching audio from 5.1 to Stereo doesn’t work on Mac. I wasn’t able to get the Metal benchmarking tool to work in this game, so I don’t have an exact FPS count, but performance felt very smooth. D3DMetal kept tabbing me in and out of the game and DXVK kernel panicked
