Creating a game vs playing other people's games

I always find myself torn between two options:

1. Working on my own game
2. Playing other people's games

And there are a bunch of reasons why:

1. I'm really tired after my main job.
2. On top of that, I need to load the entire game context into my head.
3. There are a lot of routine tasks involved.

More often than not, I end up just turning off my brain and playing other people's games instead.

Does anyone else struggle with this?
