The performance of FFXIV Mac version is worse than that with Boot Camp

On this occasion, the voice of players to get native Mac client is growing. Late last month, the long-awaited Mac version has finally come out coincided with the release of Heavensward. However, problems also float on the water soon.

The major problem on Mac version of the client is that it is launched without making any modification or optimization of Mac system. Instead, it just copies the Windows version and releases with different package, which leads to the result that a Mac client suffering from lowered frame rates, as well as problems loading assets. Many Mac users say it is even less fluent than using the Boot Camp to run Windows version. Thus, boot camp is still probably the best way to go for the new system for kicked players and boat in FFXIV Heavensward that introduced on Safewow. With large lead in the CG technology, Square Enix is still out of practice on Mac. In addition to the optimization problem, the requirements of system configuration are also vague. Players may not know whether their own Mac computers can run normally or not, leading that it can't meet the requirements of the actual configuration even when they buy them based on official configuration instructions.
