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

I did 1. I also don’t have as much patience for fiddling with or upgrading things, so it was the easiest. I don’t play that as much either, different priorities and limited time each day.

I still like complex stories, but my unfinished pile is much larger than it once was. I also play things on easy more than I might have in the past because finishing it is more fun than the challenge to me now.
