How to play STAR WARS™: The Old Republic™ on Mac

STAR WARS™: The Old Republic™ has no Mac build, but the Windows version runs on Mac through CrossOver, a compatibility layer built on Wine (the same technology behind Steam's Proton). ProtonDB rates it Platinum, so it runs great right out of the box.

Install CrossOver (or Whisky). Get CrossOver from CodeWeavers. It's paid but has a free trial. Prefer free? Whisky is an open-source alternative built on the same technology.
Install the game in a "bottle". Open CrossOver, search for STAR WARS™: The Old Republic™, and let it create a bottle (a self-contained Windows environment), then install the game from Steam, GOG, or Epic inside it.
Apply any tweaks. CrossOver usually applies the right settings for you. If something's off, ProtonDB's community reports for STAR WARS™: The Old Republic™ list the exact fixes other players used.
Play. It runs right on top of macOS, with no full Windows install and no rebooting. One caveat: online modes with strict anti-cheat can be hit-or-miss, so CrossOver is most reliable for single-player.
