My old PC is hooked up in our family room for gaming on the Big Screen. I tried to buy a Steam Machine just to make that process more seemless. Am I annoyed that I have an 800 game library and have been snubbed twice (first the controlled and now the machine)? Yes, but is probably a blessing though. Fingers crossed that the 2nd gen machine that we will see in a 1-2 years will be better and the same price or cheaper.

If you have a modern TV is there a reason you haven't just loaded Moonlight on it so you can just remote play from your gaming PC?

Gaming on the big screen typically means family gaming, I have have found remote gaming with multiple controllers is a cluster fuck. I have a 55" Odessey Arc in my office, so gaming solo already feels like a big screen experience. I also have a recliner in my office that I can slide over if I really feel like poop-socking.

I fully realize my gaming problems are 1st world gluttoneous american problems

Im not even joking. 1k for them to play my giant library. They don't even know games look better. They have a switch

I have two kids who have friends. And even split screen Minecraft on the ps5 is awesome for them.

More than half the shit that offers local multiplayer on a ps5 or switch do not on PC.
