Is watching someone play the game the same as playing a game myself, absolutely not.

Can I get satisfaction and an understanding of a game I know I never would’ve played otherwise, yes.

I’m not going to put in enough hours to make it through difficult games like dark souls or Hollow Knight. But I’ll put a walkthrough on while I do work or chores so I can experience those games in some way.

I’m all for it, but it scratches a different kind of itch than playing a game does.

It’s problematic. I was on a 5 hour flight this week and I played wheels up to wheels down and legit didn’t realize it until the bump on landing.

I haven’t been sucked into a game like that in decades.

Well they are actively trying to put NFTs into their games.

That’s where I am these days.

I’ve been the person to buy a console when there’s the killer game/feature worth upgrading for.

Historically I’ve bought the bundles with a few games just in time for the new launch of a new software.

I ended up with a PS2/GameCube/Wii, a PS3/Xbox360/WiiU and PS4/Xbox One/Switch. I don’t mind buying consoles to play a few games.

That moment just hasn’t happened this generation. I can still play most of the big exclusives on the last gen hardware anyways.

And is what they should do rather than trying to delete it.

Provide context so that future generations can enjoy what’s good about the media and acknowledge how parts of the content/media are problematic and not appropriate.

I can get reposts every couple of hours on here.

I think the issue was there was artificially very little supply allowed, so not a free market.
