Forums - Gaming Discussion - Do you follow game streaming/let's play channels?

No, I’m probably to old and just don’t see the appeal.

Sitting in a couch next to a friend that is playing has happaened many times, but that’s different, it has a social aspect to it.

I don't see the point. If I want see gaming, then I play the damn games.



I stopped watching Let's Play and just watch streams on Twitch.



Not really because I am not part of it.

I do watch speedruns of older games though and like for example an e-sports tournament or a poker tournament,

I have my own channel for trading cards though. In that one people at least participate in it so there is a reason to watch lol.



 

 

Nope but i do watch a fair bit of Spawnwave, beat em ups and RGT_85 along with IGN, gamexplain, DF and a few other channels. More news, updates and reviews type channels.

Oh and lets not forget Arlo, i think he used to bo on here before he started his YT channel. Its booming now.

I don't watch or follow any of them. I get some stories about games and such from Facebook posts, and that's about it for me.



No I don't and I don't see the appeal either. Just seems incredibly boring and then you additionally get to hear stupid and over the top commentary. No thanks.

I only watch a bit of speedrunning, but only during GDQ or ESA. I'm pretty much dependent on commentary there since I wouldn't know what is going on but even there are some incredibly annoying people and tons of cringworthy memes...



I'm not big into game streamers (I'd rather play the game myself), but I follow TheKnownWorld for his excellent HOMM3 playthroughs, guides and challenges. Also ryukahr is fun to watch for his Mario Maker playthroughs.

I occasionally watch videos from VGC members. As for streams, I jumped on GribbleGrunger's streams a few times in summer 2017, and sometimes, but not often, watch a couple of my PSN friends. Neither is generally my bag. I don't bother very often, and I have to at least kinda-sorta know you to do it at all.
