I don’t watch sports either. That said, that’s not a bad point, I suppose if I got into it I theoretically could watch and enjoy competitive games. Not the same as streamers playing singleplayer games though.

Alaknar@sopuli.xyz 3 weeks agoI don’t understand watching any video game streams. It just makes me want to play video games myself, why would I spoil video games by watching someone else play it?
I don’t understand watching any football streams. It just makes me want to play football myself, why would I spoil the fun of playing by watching someone else play it?

There are streamers who dedicated their lives towards a single game and become incredibly proficient at it. They don’t go pro either for monetary reasons (streaming could be more lucrative) or there just isn’t a pro scene for that particular game.
You could learn A LOT about various mechanics aspects from watching people play Minecraft. You can learn a lot of tricks and map knowledge from watching FPS players. Or it could be just a variety streamer that’s incredibly funny, like Soviet Womble. Etc., etc.

Actually though. I can’t bear football and I’d still rather kick a ball around than sit and watch it
