Ignoring the GPU pricing issue, It was a really good option for Mac users to play games that don’t run on MacOS. One of my friends uses it to play with our friend group.

Imo, if you ignore the surrounding context, it’s a great option if you don’t want to pay exorbitant prices for GPUs just to play a modern game.

The real issue is that this problem was artificially manufactured by the companies offering the solution and is guaranteed to enshittify in the name of greed, as seen here.

As per usual, we can’t have nice things because of capitalism.
