MacOS Catalina & External Drives
I updated to MacOS Catalina, I have an external SSD that I install all large games to.
Ever since the update, however, games will not run off of the external drive until I manually launch each and every game from Finder, then give it permission to read/write to external devices.
It's great that I've found a workaround, but, this is a mess.

I have found that if the game has online content, then it now requires a one time consent to share access online, offline games like Mini Metro have no online content so they run without a problem (games that are 32-bit only will obviously not work anymore). I guess I will be using Bootcamp.
