Blizzard used to support Mac very well. Diablo and WoW always supported Mac. Valve as well, most Valve first party titles released for Mac. Played lots of Portal 1/2, CS:GO. Also played Minecraft, Sims, KSP.
For a while it was Intel and ppc but similar graphics back end. Then it was Intel on both. But Mac had a special graphics back end. Now with Mac it’s arm and proprietary graphics back end both. While they’ve been willing to put up with one or the other in the past. It’s just not worth it to deal with both for such a small user base.
MS have been pretty good at putting their games in rival stores to appease regulators, I could see them trying to get them on Mac too, especially with apple playing for the games market now too with their new chips.

Ye, but why? Probably some deals between the two companies.
When Microsoft - Activision deal will finalize, you can forget about that too.

Exactly, and they can simply use Windows in a virtual machine anyway.
