For me, it is any city/building construction game like City Skylines, Two Point Hospital, Planet Zoo etc.

    None.

    I have absolutely no interest in watching someone else play a video game, excluding short clips of gameplay to get a feel for the mechanics.

      I watched some gameplay of Shattered Pixel Dungeon, just to help me not suck at it. It’s a roguelike with a damned steep learning curve. 25 short dungeon levels to get through and it took me like 42 attempts before the first time I beat it.

      Same here. With the exception of if it’s in person. If I’m playing with or showing a new game to someone physically there with me, I enjoy watching them play. But that’s pretty rare, so I might as well say none.

      I also cannot stand watching any type of televised/broadcast sport, so that probably has something to do with it.

      I was talking to a friend about a parallel topic yesterday, regarding movies/TV shows about video games. I argued that it’s like watching porn when you can be having sex - I’d much rather be in control than watching an idiot fuck it all up.

          “oh no baby, I’m cumming so hard I just sharted on the dog” as the dog starts to bite the guys sack, the camera falls over, she’s screaming and he’s losing a heavy amount of blood, the emergency services arrive and the video ends with their OnlyFans link

          And I’m like “…and I paid pornhub for THIS?”
