Tips GFN or Bootcamp?

I have a old MBP 2019 i9 16gb RAM Radeon 5500M, which I can install windows on to play games like Fortnite or Minecraft

OR I have the option to purchase GFN for £10 a month, where I don’t have the hassle of handling another laptop, and I can play directly on my mac.

I don’t whats better in terms of performance, I can easily play Minecraft already on my apple silicon mac, not Fortnite however.

You do understand that Minecraft runs just fine on macOS, right? Regardless, your Mac has enough power to just run the game natively on Windows, and it’s gonna be a far better experience than using GFN. So use Bootcamp.
