Might actually be a positive instead of a negative. Gaming use-cases should have not any effect on security policies, these should be as separate as possible, different auth mechanisms for your gaming stuff and your professional stuff ensures nothing gets mixed.

remote unlock is also useful when you're not gaming so that feels like the wrong aspect to focus on

Hah? It being my gaming machine has nothing to do with the problem. It’s also my FPGA development machine, though it gets used less for that. It only happens to be the only Linux workstation in my home (the others are Macs or OpenBSD).

If you care about security, I recommend investing into a separate computer for developing hardware and software and another for downloading games on.

You can setup your security any way you like, but nothing beats an air gap in terms of security and simplicity.
