I play a lot of windowed games on my PC as I watch less engaging content like TV I’ve seen, Youtube. Lately Balatro, Peglin, a racing game called art of rally, Mini Motorways. Interested to hear other people’s preferences.

I generally want something that runs well windowed because I use a third of my ultrawide to run the video, so no shooters or “big” games usually.

    I think there are different levels. I love the office, I’ve watched it through a few times. But sometimes after a long day I like to toss it on and just relax. It’s a comfort show. But having seen it so much, it’s easy to fiddle with a game while I watch. It’s a way to destress after work for me. It’s not that I don’t like the show, I’m just experiencing it a different way. As comfort background viewing, apposed to when I watch a show I really enjoy and am seeing for the first time.

      I do this but it’s usually with a Brit murder mystery or classic movie. If I’m watching something I love like Silo or Severance then that gets my full attention.
