I admit, I used to like him, but now he is full-blown juvenile
>>
>>333797628
I doubt there's a psychological divide, outside of maybe raising an eyebrow after seeing something like a shit ton of parts (40ish) and questioning what the person does with all their time I imagine most people who hear the concept just see it as someone recording gameplay much the way you'd see the games advertised on some game review show that used to be on TV.

Let's plays are specifically catered to teens and children. If you are an adult you most likely will not be enjoying it because it's not good. Low production value tends to be that though. Kids don't care about it being actually clever or funny. As long as it has goofy voices and faces it's good enough.

I noticed the adults that do actually enjoy it (no not you, "it's alright" faggots, I mean literally LOL at it) are literal man children/betas.

So to your question OP, you don't. YouTubers are merely children entertainers who make lots of money. Don't bother watching it, it's not for you.

Root beer is broken. It's basically The World in the form of a delicious drink. Bump 6 hours down to at least half an hour and that would be a lot more balanced.

Yes, technically, but combine Diamond and Ghost, and you're looking at insane damage in the long run, since Ghost makes it HIT twice, you'd have a 75% chance of doing 250% weapon damage, and 25% chance of doing 500% damage off of a single attack.

Frost + Ethereal.

It slows them down and ignores their armor, meaning big strong armored guys are SUPER slow and their armor is fucking useless, a hindrance even, and fast guys are slowed down to a more manageable level and probably can't hit for shit.

Drakes get two colors. Not sure if there's a rule on doubling the same color. I would assume doing that would multiply the pros and cons of that color by 2 if that is possible.

With the free unlock thing with the packages, do those count towards the Bonuses or do you get those in addition to the 5 bonuses? Also, can you double-up on ones like Additional Servant and Long Path?

This is WAY to generous with perks / packages. Too much choice that I won't even participate.

>esports/world record speed runs = sports
wide appeal, can be invested in who wins, that kind of stuff.

>skilled let's players = watching professionals training regiments
niche appeal. Hardcore fans would watch for fun, and for people who want to get better it can make for good learning material

Basically everything else has nothing to do with the games, and is because they like the person. It's like watching a comedy show. To each their own, but I don't get it (even ignoring that they're effectively aimed at children). I could see an hour or two a week, but I would get burned out as fuck with any more than that.

"...why are you watching someone play a game? Why not just play it yourself?"

>>333803350
Sort of. The difference is that the people who watch top gear could never do the things they do on the show. You can do the things in let's plays (unless the person you're watching is a way above average player maybe).

It'd be more like if Top Gear had the same hosts (so to be fair a lot would still watch it because they like those guys), except all they did was drive corollas to and from work, or the mall.

Yes it has something, but it allows you to take everything you want easily, unless you are super greedy and want everything. It's fun making trade offs, it'd be better if it was one package + 2 perks, for 3 total.

I was among his first 100 subscribers, I warned him when he began his Happy Wheels LP and I unsubscribed not long after.

He wasn't the funniest guy around but he showed me tons of cool little games and gave opinions worth listening to. I feel like humor isn't the guy's strongest suit but he's stooped down so low on the humor chain it doesn't even matter.
