MacBook Pro M4 or Gaming Laptop?

Hi guys. I am a gamer and a video editor/photographer in the UAE. I have a M1 iMac at work and a Steam Deck OLED and a 2017 MacBook Pro 13 inch at home. I have been saving money to buy a computer for myself, which I have to choose a portable system for now because I do stay with 3 other guys in a large hall and there is a thief risk and not enough space in having a desktop gaming PC.

I am attracted to the new M4 MacBook Pro but also bums out that once I have it, I will not be able to play high-end fidelity games on it, which also my Steam Deck cannot. I have had my eye on the Asus Rog Strix G16 with the RTX 4080 for a while but decided to wait until the RTX 5000 series is out next year.

Do you think that I should go for the M4 MacBook Pro (mainly to improve my work and watching media) or wait for the RTX 5000 series laptop or wait even more to eventually get my own room and get a desktop gaming PC? 

Note: I also have an iPhone 15 Pro Max, Apple Watch, and AirPods Pro 2, so I like the Apple ecosystem.
