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.
