Physical, no. Mental, varies by game, but usually a bit

There is an inertia to even open the game

That's true. I suppose I was thinking more from the perspective of playing the game, not getting the cartridge in or installing then opening the game.

I found it helps to drag yourself into a physical game

I'll put on my VR helmet, and be like:

"I am too tired to spend another day in a post apocalyptic hellscape, I am full of burrito"

And then the edges of my vision will fill in with color, and I'll dig my boots into the gray ashes, listen to the howl of the wind, gaze out at the two huge planets hanging over the horizon, and observe the whispers of a civilization built upon successive graveyards, gliding my fingers over carvings, wondering about the lives of the ancients.

Brain: I'm sorry what the fuck was the question? Holy shit.

Edit: The game is Kenshi. Into the Radius (VR) is another experience.
