Why is it so much more amusing to watch someone play a video game than it is to play the game itself? - eviltoast

I’m old now. I’ve finally realised I get more enjoyment from watching someone play than to actually play the game. Why is that? Do you experience that as well?

    The older I get, the more I want from games is an interesting experience. Watching can provide that. I don’t have the time or interest for games that are deep loops of grind or challenges designed to be repeated. I get enough of that from adult life.
