Is it possible to use PIA to VPN JUST a game and not the rest of your PC so you can stream?

acow

I am currently using other VPNs for gaming on overseas servers while streaming (tried WTFast, ExitLag, Mudfish etc) but none of them are perfect. PIA is by far the most reliable in terms of connection stability. Is it possible to use PIA to VPN your connection just for your game so that the rest of your PC is not affected by the slowed VPN connection and you are able to stream to Twitch without high latency which causes large amounts of dropped frames? Or is there perhaps some sort of other workaround that will allow me to use PIA to play in a different region and still stream to Twitch without any issues such as maybe having the VPN connection ignore OBS? Thanks in advance for any help/suggestions!   

Platform: Win 10 
VPN: PIA
Streaming service: Twitch
Streaming software: Streamlabs OBS

Hello! 

Currently, we have various options to use the VPN. however non are able to single out the VPN to be used with just gaming and not affect the entire device. In example: The browser extension only protects the browser where as the VPN Application protects the device. Using both will slowdown the device but not offer any more protection that using either option.

You could use the browser for Twitch, but if your using the Twitch Application, that would not be singled out. I am sorry for the inconvenience of the issue. If you need further assistance, please let us know! - PIA CS TEAM

For anyone else trying to solve this issue: the new PIA 'App Exclusions' Beta fixes this entirely and allows you to VPN your PC including your game to overseas servers while excluding OBS which results in absolutely no connection issues or dropped frames.  Thank you so much for adding this feature!  Will never need any VPN other than PIA anymore!  Been searching for a solution for this for years.  Very happy customer!  ^^
