Do you go to restaurants just to watch people eat their food too?

I always wonder whats going on in the heads of the streamers. Not the popular kind I get those. But those 'normal' neckbeard type of guy who suddenly think "Yeah people would luuuv to watch me play vidya there aren't enough people doing what I'm going to do" and then churn out 3 lets plays with 20 views combined and resign disillusioned.

I enjoy using them as background noise to find games i'd never try playing otherwise, but i don't know if that's a common situation.

It's pretty expected that friendless single kids with no siblings would find it amusing to watch others play.

It all comes to them being lonely and overall friendless, as a kid since I wasn't a loser like them I grew up playing vidya with my friends and siblings, if I wanted to see someone better at me play a game I'd look over my brothers shoulder...etc

These people lack friends and are overall losers so they cling to internet personalities and delude themselves that these personalities are there friends while proceeding to give these "friends" money just to continue on pretending they are there friends.

It's sad really, pathetic lonely children.

But I dont watch, nor play. Its boring shit.

HOWEVER, anyone can get good at videogames. Barely anyone can get professional level for sports.
>>
It's like a podcast about the person's play through of the game while also watching the footage of the playthrough in synch.

It's the same with watching sports and listening to the commentary, except with this the player is commentating cause he can, cause he isn't running around a field out of breath.

There's shit and there's good commentators. The shit ones do the games that gets the most views from 8 year olds, cause that's all they care about getting paid more.

The good ones do the good games and do decent commentary cause they're actually enjoying the game. You hear their points of view on aspects of the game and shit. As long as they're not retarded they can be interesting to listen to.

Can you faggot fucks pls stop embarrassing yourself?

Sports is a social event, people watch it to socialize they drink alcohol they have their sport buddies wear their teams jerseys eat nachos and shit talk kne another as they watch the game.

This is NOT equivalent to you staring at your monitor in a dark room all by yourself.
This is not equivalent pls fuck off with the stupidity.

I'm the same exact way, also we are alone not lonely.
We don't seek social stimulation these people who watch streams do because they are lonely AND alone.

I mean I understand thinking like "man it would be cool to hang out with Vin Diesel" but I don't see how me watching all his movies would make us best buds.
Do people really think streamers/let's players/etc. are their friends? The only person I think is a friend is one guy who's videos I watch literally said I was a good friend, and even then I'm skeptical.

Just look at female twitch streamers. Some people are so lonely that they will throw money and girls so they will put their name on a board or show off their ass or some shit. Streaming is literally who is the biggest whore contest. Not good looking?

Streamers are willing to actually call people their friends though, if you fork over cash.

And unsurprisingly people are willing to do just that if it means being oh so closer to their E celeb.

Honestly, the sport analogy just makes let's plays even MORE retarded. When people watch sports, they're watching pros. When it's some kids or pieces of shits playing that just want to have fun, only the parents, trainers and maybe a few randomfags watch it. It's the same shit for vidya, when there's high skill tournament going on there is a reason to watch. But apparently for some reason, people also fucking watch some fucking ramdom, worthless whinny faggots that don't even know how to play vidya. Just look at DSP, that guy has absolutely no reason to be famous, and yet, people watch him religiously and shit.

No, nobody other than children and the mentally ill feel like this. There are streamers out there who are very vocal with the chat and interact with them, not for free though. I don't get the phenomena myself but there are shows I like, and for many reasons. Maybe there's a game I can't play and want to know more about and have some commentary on, or if I don't want to hear them screaming and yelling I look for gameplay on its own. Remember pic related? A whole goddamn television channel? It's a little different now, but it's the same thing, just on the internet.

It's pretty obvious with the dumb ass excuses people are willing to toss for why they are willing to watch others play vidya to be proof of how much in denial they are about their loneliness and how pathetic of a human being they are.

These excuses are just simply pathetic.

Listen, gramps. I'm saying G4 showed gameplay and information about the games, and provided entertainment and commentary about them. You seem to have a very shallow understanding of what kinds of content is being streamed and just lump everything together with the likes of pewdiepie and markiplier.

>>345454517

No I know full well of what is being streamed retard, NOTHING equivalent to that of g4 out there.

In an age where reviews are everywhere, in an age where trailers are by abundance, in an age where you can see gameplay footage of any game there is a reason g4 was cut, it no longer had a purpose.
You don't seek information considering it's out there by abundance what you seek are internet personalities for you to cling to like the pathetic fuck you are.

I'm rightly assuming that everyone here is a lifeless piece a' shit NEET autist fucktard.

That being said, it's not unlikely that some of you have actual friends. No, not your cat. You know, actual friends to play vidya with. I know even you had those at one point in your life you dirty fuckin cucks.

Now can you remember what you did when you went over to your friends house? other than sucking each others dicks

That's right, you both sat down in front of the PC and watched each other play. If you were lucky you had a console. If you were EVEN LUCKIER, you had a two player game in your library that wasn't utter shit.

Now you're probably busy with the NEET life/shitty job/college and you don't have the goddamn time to throw sausagefest parties anymore. But you still miss being a carefree kid.

So that's why you do it. To fill the void that the passing of time has left in your soul.

You WILL die alone.

I guess people do it for entertainment or the gameplay. The quality of entertainment may be shit but there are many people who don't care for quality.
And sometimes people don't have the game, are too shit at the game, or are just too lazy to play.
You can't tell me you've never watched a video of gameplay from your favorite game. You gotta ask yourself why did you watch it.
