Ah, but you see, there are some people out there who are not gamers, but still wish to enjoy the product you've created in some capacity.

Like me? My depth perception is wonky, and I have bad reflexes. I also get upset/frustrated easily. So trying to play most games (outside of things like "Animal Crossing") are just an exercise in frustration.

But if I hear people getting excited over a game for its story, I'd like to enjoy that part. And good "Let's Play"ers help you feel engrossed in the game in a good way.

If game developers made games that I could play, they would be far too simple for your main demographic. So I take what I can get. :)

that's perfectly fine, as i was saying! there's lots of ways to enjoy a medium and each is equally valid. that's definitely not what i'm objecting to. what i'm objecting to is claiming that watching someone play something is the same as playing it yourself.

(i'm sorry i'm probably repeating myself but i have the feeling a lot of people in this thread read my comment as me saying that playing a game is more fun than watching it. not comparing one to the other is actually really my point :/ i think it's because people who mainly watch let's plays get flak from "gamers" for not being real fans and feel very defensive about it, so they make that claim? it's such a ridiculous feud, we all love the same thing!)


also totalbiscuits review of "long live the queen" made me start playing and enjoy it, so i'm the last person to underestimate the power of good let's players.
