Personally I apply the pomodoro technique to my gaming and use features like quick resume to play really long games in short intervals
oh man you have to pomodoro it? I do not have kids, but I feel like this would sort of kill the fun for me a bit. It would make play feel like work. I get that maybe that's just what you gotta do, but I do not envy gaming parents.
It’s probably a cross between not as bad as you think and exactly as bad as it sounds— a bit more about managing expectations and hoping that you can pause during cut scenes
The next bad thing is now I’m apparently also old so I can start falling asleep at 11ish :-/
