How do you like to watch game play videos online?

BitMasterPlus · Sep 27, 2021

A question I've been wanting to ask around other gaming websites for a while now. Just wanna know how people like to watch game play videos online, wether it be looking at a walkthrough on how to beat a game, or watching someone play a game either you don't want to play or you just enjoy their commentary and reactions.

Either or.

Preference is for no commentary, or maybe minimally functional to explain something that might be happening (though subtitles are fine there as well).

Will only watch let's plays if they are the only thing available for a given game when I am looking for more than a review, or happen to be super high quality graphics, and usually mute them.

Being a naturally compelling let's player is a bit like being a natural comedian, which is to say generally does not exist and any that are inherently funny have probably been doing it for 30 years.

No commentary. There's very few YouTube personalities I enjoy. If I'm just checking game footage out, I especially don't want commentary over it.

It depends i guess, if i want to se how the game looks like, how it plays and the combat etc commentary could give you a clue what the player is experiencing, sometimes you just can't tell just by seeing. Just for the few first levels and i stop if i care about the game, before something gets spoiled for me. Unless the guy that's commenting is annoying or something..

no commentary, when I’m watching someone play, I just want to hear the game.

If it is a youtuber i am watching for many days i prefer commentary.

With commentary

A little bit of commentary

Commentary, not with people speaking, but with text in front of the game play

No commentary whatsoever, just wanna see the damn game without talking/comments
