I recently got a job after finishing university, all is good. However, after 5 full days of being behind desk job, I feel a bit exhausted of being behind desk.

Thus my desire to game on PC has soured immensely. Despite having a huge backlog and actually want to finish games.

I’m debating to purchase a Steam Deck OLED in the hope, I can actually play some decent games on there without getting fatigue of desk/ screens but that’s a big investment (€670-700).

So I was wondering; how do the adults of Lemmy with 5 full days of work still get the time and desire to play their games?

    How long have you been working a day job? It might just be a period of adjustment.

    For about 2 months and a few days now. So I think, I already adjusted to the changes.

    School life vs work life is a lot different, so it takes time to adjust for most people.

    Definitely! It was tough the first few weeks, lol.

    Also, if you work from home, that may also be a factor. If so, try not working where you game if possible. That was a huge thing for me.

    At the moment I don’t yet, I purposely asked if I could work full time at office. I still live with parents and the distractions are a bit much. Might try working from home sooner or later though.
