RE: How streaming and gaming become new TV

in #gaming6 years ago

I'm really an old hand at games. I also love the way you celebrate the good old Playstation One, even though it wasn't by far my first console.

But call me old-fashioned or something, but I don't care about Let`s Plays. I'd rather play it myself than just watch someone and the fascination behind it is also personally incomprehensible to me. The same applies to Twitch streams.

When I watch someone play, they need to be special. Something that interests me and doesn't bore me. For example a speed run or he plays the game on a
Difficulty I would never manage myself.

Don't get me wrong, I can already understand somewhere why some people watch something like this, especially if they don't know a game and maybe think about buying it. But it is always a better experience to play a game than to watch someone doing it.

It's not a criticism of you, the numbers prove you absolutely right. It's just my personal view of things.

I need to agree. It's all based on personality and personal experience. Even if I'm streamer it's hard for me to watch other people when they do streams. I don't have time for that and also I can do stream myself to grow up my channel :D Thanks for sharing your thoughts :D
