Having failed to get a straight answer from the official Parallels website and Youtube videos, I thought I'd take the plunge and finally get to the bottom of whether one can actually, honestly run games using Parallels 15, due to it's now inclusion of DirectX 11.  This video is unedited to show you how long the whole process actually takes for everything to load, run, etc.

My computer set-up: MacBook Pro 2017 2.9Ghz, 16Gb Ram, 512Gb SSD, eGPU Asus XG Station Pro & Sapphire Vega 56
