Whooo, they are on a GTX 1080 level, such success in 2023 for that price. Somewhere around 2034 they'll get to an RTX 4090 level.

why are you comparing wow to FFXIV? wow has nowhere near the graphic load FFXIV does and still runs like crap on Macs.

Launcher doesn't change the game itself which is still a sort of a Windows version run through Wine. What is changed is Wine configuration and third-party plugins if you are into that. And AFAIK it allows using a Windows license instead of having to use a Mac one (and you can't have both licenses for one account if I recall correctly).

Compared to WoW native Apple silicon version of the game the FF14 on Apple silicon runs way worse than natively on Windows.

Square Enix offers Final Fantasy XIV for macOS via an official launcher, but it is just a wrapper and a poorly optimized and outdated one at that. The folks at XIV on Mac offer an open source alternative written in Swift that works natively on Apple silicon Macs with much improved game performance and support for the Metal 2 API.
