Bought a brand shiny new MBP 14" M3max days ago; Parallels 19, Windows 11 Pro ARM, Steam, gaming modes in both VM and Windows.
Very same issue on
AOE2DE; tried to impose the SKIPINTRO to the Steam game commandline with no effect: jumped the splash screen but stays black as before, while the music is still going on.
AOE4 won't start either, probably the fact Parallels 19 is not DX12 Ultimate compliant yet is a factor...
The game is declared unplayable in Crossover 23 and Gaming Porting Toolkit.
Silicon M3 is a crunching beast, but in the gaming arena there is the same old gap with the Windows world
As of now, I can only play Baldur's Gate III with my new work+fun computer...
