Why is it so much more amusing to watch someone play a video game than it is to play the game itself? (kbin.social)

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?

@patchw3rk I only use Twitch when a new game that I want is released. So I can see if the gameplay is what I'm expecting and if it's also well optimized for PC.
I don't watch more than 10 minutes, because I find "Twitchers and YouTubers" like the most cringe existing beings. But as I told you I use their videos just to see if the game is good enough.
I'm not into preorders cuz well is the most stupid thing that someone can do. Companies never gonna run out of digital copies.
