Topic	Do you play video games or watch people play video games more often?
GeminiDeus 03/24/24 9:55:02 PM #9:	archizzy posted... Maybe its my age but I legitimately have never understood watching people play games. How streamers or YouTubers or vtubers ever became a thing honestly baffles me. Like I understand a comical skit that shows some game footage like AVGN but just actually watching people game? I cant comprehend why people like that. I always just wanted to play. I didnt even like watching my friends play in person when I was waiting my turn back when I was a kid. But to go online to watch it? Ill never understand that. bsp77 posted... I will never understand watching others play unless it is for a part where stuck It's no different than watching sports, really. I only have a Switch, but there are games on other consoles or computer that I don't have access to but am interested in. They're also fun watching a person experience something you enjoy also enjoying the game, and how they go about playing it. Watching a play through of BotW or TotK and seeing how someone else chose an entirely different path from my own was pretty cool. Watching vinesauce play Hollow Knight years ago made me want to play it myself, and I bought it shortly after seeing the first video, and stopped watching the series because I wanted to discover the game on my own. My depression and new physical limitations are also preventing me from playing the games I love, or playing them less than I'd like. Some days I only play for about 30 minutes, weeks apart. I can't enjoy video games the way I used to, but it's nice having an outlet. --- Without truth, there is nothing. <cite>GeminiDeus posted [p:979545331] in Do you pla...
