What's the problem with buying on the app store?

[–] loutr@sh.itjust.works 10 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

If you buy the game on the app store you can only play it on Macs. It's an issue if you own both a MacBook and a gaming PC/Steam Deck.

On Steam you get all the supported platforms + (most likely) save syncing.

I have a Deck, and don't want to be limited to Mac if I get a gaming computer in future also.
