I worked in games for a number of years, so on top of being exhausted coming home, it was near impossible to not fall into work mode when I tried playing games for fun.

    Got into making games as a hobby a few years back and it basically made it impossible to play games like I used to. Took a while to separate those parts of my brain.

    It definitely takes an active effort to enjoy games when it's also your work. What worked for me was finding the weird niche stuff that didn't resemble the stuff I worked on at all. I imagine if you're a developer that it could also help get the creative juices flowing too.
