Why are Apple Silicon VMs so different?
For gaming, you want to use Crossover or the FOSS Whisky app. Parallels only runs Arm Windows which then emulates x86. This is much much slower than using Wine to translate system calls and Apple's Game Porting Toolkit to handle the Vulkan or DirectX graphics. Crossover and Whisky take care of the internals of those for you. Give those a shot, I think you'll find it much better than a full VM. In my experience some games do run better this way than the MacOS versions, though that's usually because the Mac client wasn't compiled for Apple Silicon and so Rosetta is emulating. Unfortunately, I'm pretty sure WOW is already Apple Silicon native, so you probably won't get better performance this way.
For the mouse stuff, try a USB mouse if you're not already using one, combined with https://github.com/ther0n/UnnaturalScrollWheels
That works really well for me to get a Windows-like mouse curve.
TLDR skip the emulation and go for translation layers via Crossover, Whisky, and GPT. It'll be much faster. The mouse thing is separate and has nothing to do with the graphics layer.
------
Personally though, I'd just pay $20 a month for Geforce Now. It is much much faster than even the highest end Mac.

Free Tech Tools and Resources - Mac Scrolling, Load Testing, Win Server Switch Tip & More
A Free Tool UnnaturalScrollWheels is a MacOS app that allows you to invert the scroll direction for physical scroll wheels while maintaining the normal function for trackpads. aew3 recommends it "for those like me who go between dock and laptop and prefer my mouse to have a different scroll direction to the trackpad." Another Free Tool Locust is an open-source load testing tool that allows you to define whatever user behavior you like, and then swarm your system with millions of those users simultaneously. certTaker suggests, "If you want to test an actual application and how it handles network latency, potential buffering, QoS etc, then you could use Locust to stress-test REST-based applications and their APIs." A Tip Synssins shares a method for replacing an older Windows File Server with new, while keeping all shares and DNS intact:

- Is there any way to reverse the scroll direction on JUST the external mouse, but keep the default on the touchpad?

New MacOS user, should I force myself to use the default natural mouse scroll direction behavior or reverse it it to act more like Windows?
“For some reason in macOS, toggling the "Scroll direction: Natural" option in Mouse settings also changes it in Trackpad settings despite being in separate places.” Check out this app too which also takes care of acceleration. https://github.com/ther0n/UnnaturalScrollWheels

Winlator: Android app that lets you to run Windows apps with Wine
Not exactly what you were asking, but winevdm [0] does use code from Wine to run 16-bit Windows applications on 64-bit Windows installs that don't support it natively (via ntvdm).

This, along with Windows's own compatibility mode tweaks, should run almost any game that has ever been released on Windows.

You can repeat this command as many times as you need to for additional records. More information can be found here. Total downtime in a VMWare environment is less than five minutes, barring any DNS server replication in play." Yet Another Free Tool winevdm enables you to keep old Windows programs on life support by running 16-bit Windows (1.x, 2.x, 3.0, 3.1, etc.) on a 64-bit Windows system. Ojakobe explains, "Had a special case of a user who clung to their Windows 7 PC because their work was reliant on a 16-bit program from 1997 (and even on 7 it didn't run properly). Used the program above to make it run reliably on 10." One Final Free Tool LocalAI is a self-hosted, OpenAI-compatible API that allows you to run language learning models locally or on-prem using consumer-grade hardware without the need for GPUs. This RESTful API supports multiple model families that are compatible with ggml format. Our thanks go to mudler_it for this one.

Anyone know how to get ActiveSync on windows 10?
After that you should now be able to install software. One final sticking point is that some older programs are wrapped up in 16-bit installers, however these can be installed by running the installer with something like otvdm.

Why won't this run on my windows 11 pc?
Try WineVDM because NTvdm never got a port to 64-bit since the CPU mode it relied on for fast 16-bit code execution gets disabled when a x86 processor is switched into long mode. WineVDM is likely translating 16-bit instruction calls to 32-bit and then passing that off to Windows
