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

    Maybe try gaming and stuff before work rather than after, if you can. I find trying to squeeze the stuff I want to do after work in the evening is/was way harder.

    I also got a monitor mount and a 32" monitor that I can move around my space and then sit back on a couch behind my desk and play from there in the same room, but just sitting back with a thermos of water and my phone on a side table helps get me into the headspace to game.
