I am sitting on a desk PC the whole day at work, which I believe has caused my ability to play games on my PC to diminish. I have found the following solutions, so I am asking to see if any of you has done something like that:

  1. Buy a console (the easiest)
  2. Connect the PC and the TV to a router to form an Ethernet LAN, and stream from the PC to the console using Steam Link
  3. Connect the GPU’s HDMI output to the TV’s and the computer screen’s inputs using a 1x2 HDMI switch

With solutions (2) and (3) converting the PC to a console so I can sit on the couch and relax.

Also, have you found your tastes change after starting work? I used to be into games with complex stories and/or challenging gameplay but now I feel to tired for that.

Thanks

    Very much the opposite for me, I struggle with game games, the arcadey high score chasers and MP shooters, because I feel like “I’d really at least take something out of this experience”. I really, really prefer either co-op with other people or single player games with at least some sort of narrative to have thoughts to. Can even be bad thoughts, like “wow this is garbage and why”, but at least some thoughts
