Hi y'all. I've been a PC builder/owner for over 20 years. My current PC is now many years old, thanks to marriage and children, but am intending to finally get an upgrade this year. Here's the thing ... I'm a web developer by trade and use a Mac every day and can't imagine using anything else for programming, certainly not Windows and I'm not overly keen on Linux, not to mention building React Native apps for iOS means I must have macos running. I'm also a gamer historically, so I can't quite let go of that side of me.
Let's assume I'll be able to afford a top-end Macbook Pro and a 4k/5k 27" monitor to go with it. Will that last for a few years in terms of mid-level gaming, or am I utterly shafted in that respect? I'm not after maximum resolutions/frame-rates on the latest games, but I would like to be able to run something released this year at a setting that wouldn't distract from the game, for example.
I realise that, for the same budget, I could get a mind-blowingly good desktop PC and monitors, but then I don't get my macos development experience that I crave.
Would really welcome some subjective, personal opinions from people here, especially if they enjoy using a Mac but are also, at least historically, PC gamers.
