That's how I am playing but it bugs me because my backlog consists of physical games piled up in the corner.

>>330505532
I remember doing that as a kid, ended up never finishing any game, except for GTA SA which i finished like 6 times.

I finally did it. I started watching playthroughs of games in my backlog. And it works. I'm satisfied. And let me tell ya: it took me like 1/5th of the time it would take me to play these: Already watched: MGS4, FFIV, Koudelka, Drakengard.
Boring/grindy part? Skip
Backtracking? Skip
