Gaming Youtube Channels

[Pink Gregory]

An entire generation of people finding entertainment in this. It's just nothing. I don't get it don't you at least want some kind of talent like singing or dancing or acting or comedy?

It's like people who watch people talk or play games on twitch. Just talk to someone or play some games. It's so strange. Feels like it's capitalising on some inherent mental illness.

Granted I went off Let's Plays years ago but you don't become a successful youtuber without at least some ability to be entertaining or engaging.  It's a bit like talk radio.

It's only like listening to Mark Kermode talk about films on the radio, or watching Gary Lineker and the others talk about football on Match Of The Day. It's not that weird or sad.

To be fair football punditry is the weirdest dullest shite in football but that's beside the point.

Just something about the Internet culture that's different to me.

Perfectly possible to enjoy someone else's active activity as a passive activity.  Hence sport.  Or theatre.

The parasocial relationships bit can be a bit concerning, fair enough.

Listening to Mark Kermode talk about films is a very weird thing to do.
