was it autism?
>ever watching another human play a video game
are you 10?
Depends on the game, though I watch shit for background noise more than anything.

No, that's actually the only excusable way to watch LPs.
>>384563743
no just friendless
No you're completely fine. To think there are people out there that have watched a Bloodborne or Souls LP before playing the game themselves.

Yeah i'd say you have autism.
>>384563697
I can't watch anything in English anymore dunno why but I just cringe
I can't really stand watching let's plays unless they're speedruns, when there's some skill involved it becomes interesting, sometimes
>>384563697
No, that's the best way.>>384563743
Humans are inherently social creatures and we like to watch other humans experience things. If it's things we've also experienced, it makes it that much better. I think our need for social acceptance makes us want to watch other people react to the things we react to as a way of affirming our own reactions. Either way, it's completely natural.

Same happens for me (german) in german. Can't stnad german youtubers anymore, so weird.

I also do this, unless it's some good story/shit gameplay game I'll never be interested in actually trying.
>tfw watching only russian streamers and youtubers

>be slightly autistic
>need to explore ever nook and cranny
>take way to long to explore every level
>later watch lets player play the same game
>he misses all the cool things you found through exploring
>want to scream at the screen for him to turn around and go back.
Everytime. Either play at the same time he uploads his series or afterwards.

I'm kinda the same way.
If it's like a DOS game from the 90's I can't be fucked downloading I'll watch it but otherwise I have to play the game myself first.
I watched the Persona 4 Endurance Run Giant Bomb did before playing Persona 4 myself and it fucked up the whole experience for me

>Watch let's play
>Decide to play the game
>Now I know everything and it's not fun anymore
I used to do the same thing with video walkthroughs and somethingawful It's a curse.

>this meme again
There is nothing "social' about watching other people play due to a lack of having any real friends. Just like with antisocial media.
