Have you answered any of my original questions? No Have you been helpful? No See you later Lampard

Very cool my dude

None of this is giving me an answer to my question. So frankly, stick your lamparding and **** off if you've got not got anything helpful to contribute

Did you also read what I said? Or have you too made a rather reasonable assumption?

Really, because I can't see it here: https://www.footballmanager.com/news/football-manager-2023-out-now or here: https://www.goal.com/en-gb/news/football-manager-2023-release-date-new-features-price-full-game-devices/blt27fc5ae682e97644 Here it seems to list the system requirements for FM22, despite it being a an article about FM23, which could've been confusing: https://www.footballmanagerblog.org/2022/09/football-manager-2023-system-requirements-fm23.html But, anal retentiveness aside, my point is - it's a game I've been playing for a long time, and all previous versions have worked perfectly fine. I'm clearly not the only person that has made the rather reasonable assumption that it should work fine on my operating system (plenty of people have queried this too on here) but I don't understand WHY this decision has been made and developed in this way, and why it is unable to be made compatible? Do you make a habit of checking system requirements for every game you purchase before buying? Is it unreasonable to expect the game to work on an OS that has been supported for every year previous? If the answer is Yes to either of the above, well... you must be fun at parties

Thank you for the quick response, but can I ask WHY it's unable to be supported when last years game ran perfectly fine?

Is there a reason the game is released so as only to work with Mac OS 11 and above? I've just bought it last night, very excited to play as I'm a long-suffering Nottingham Forest who's elated to see his team finally back in the Premier League after all these years. I buy the game every year, it's my favourite game in the world. I can't even tell you how many months have been lost wrapped up in it. Last years edition worked fine on my mac running OS 10.15.7. But this year, without making clear in any advertising materials, it's only been released for OS 11 and above, which my mac isn't able to be upgraded to, despite it running perfectly fine, great RAM specs and all that... Now I'm used to the b*stards at apple trying this kind of exploitative practise to get you to buy new devices every year, but I think it's a damn shame that I'm now unable to play my favourite game without having to upgrade my whole laptop, something I'm unable to do currently as I'm low paid and we're in the middle of a cost of living crisis. So I ask developers - is there a GENUINE reason (technical malarkey I'm never going to understand) it's only been made available for OS 11 onwards, and if so could it please be explained in idiot-proof terms, or is it possible to be made available for earlier operating systems so long term fans like me can just crack on with getting Forest to win their third European Cup.
