In reality though would you really want your games to be installed on the same machine as your daily driver?
Game companies and their parent companies tend to install some shady spyware on your machine in the name of "anti-cheat software" (ie, installed in the ring0/kernel space). I am kind of relieved that I have 2 separate machines.
Although if they develop virtualized environments to sandbox games from the host machine (similar to QEMU) then I suppose that might work.

Yes. The vast majority of people that I'm aware of don't buy multiple desktops. If I spend $1000+ for a gaming machine, I don't want to spend hundreds more to have multiple machines to jump between and to manage connections to and to take up space in my office.
