This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

TL;DR: yep

I use steam remote play. I've got a mini pc in my garage, another in my living room, and a third in my bedroom. There's CAT 6 between my office and bedroom but the rest is wireless.

I spent more than I had to because I wanted all of them to be able to play less intense games like Hollow Knight and some emulation locally so if I have family and friends over we can have 3 games going at a time.

It's one of the few PC tinkering projects I've taken on outside of work in the last several years because I've grown to mostly hate it. But this was super satisfying because I ended up with something that I could enjoy alone and with family.

I beat Shadow of the Erdtree on the one in the living room so it can't be too terrible. I probably wouldn't advise it for anyone wanting to play competitively but for casual gamers, couch co-op, RPGs, or friendly online games I can highly recommend this kind of setup.
