(Anonymous) 2013-02-23 09:38 pm (UTC)(link)Personally, yes. I prefer playing games myself because gameplay is a huge part of VGs for me. And there's that whole feeling of accomplishment when I defeat hard bosses or clear a higher difficulty *eyes Metal Gear anything* and I refuse to watch LPs.
But that's just me. Some people just aren't very good at video games, or don't like playing them. For whatever reason. If they still want to experience the characters/story - especially in RPGs, which can be extremely long - why begrudge them that if the LPs are available anyway? There are people who haven't watched entire TV series or read every last comic issue in a series, but if they do all the proper research, so what?
( you're so right about MGS4, I'll give you that. But again the feeling of accomplishment - even the OH HEY I MANAGED TO ACTUALLY STAB VAMP WITH THIS SYRINGE - is still there. :))

Yessssss, that's a big part of what I enjoy about video games.
Watching an LP doesn't mean you can't still grasp the story and the characters personalities, but playing a game gives you a certain sense of accomplishment when you beat it. Some people don't care about that part; they just want the story. (Or can't afford the system and games, etc.) It's perfectly acceptable.
