I never said they were movies - I simply said that you still get the vast majority of the experience for most games. Why? Because a lot of a game's experience it based on the plot and how that's presented which can come across in a LP. Are there expectations to this? Of course.

The difference between an LP and Cliff Notes is in the fact Cliff Notes generally just gives you the bare bones and cuts out everything but what's likely to be on a test. So, unless you're claiming that LPs literally cut out half the plot [because cliff notes tends to ignore sub-plots from what I've heard], it's a bad comparison.

Also, since you seem to be making assumptions, I don't watch LPs. I either play the game, or I don't. So I'm saying this as *both* a gamer, and an avid reader.

sa - no you didn't say it. you still treat them like one in this discussion.


if you genuinely think games aren't much more than their plots than it's really no use arguing with you, doesn't matter if you're a "gamer" or not.
