Does anyone else just find looking up stuff about games and thinking/talking about them more entertaining than actually playing them sometimes?

I like reading about lore in RPGs more than playing the actual games

>Friend who hasn't played Classic WoW gonna play it
>Decide to look up stuff for them
>Seems really fucking cool and interesting with tons of different classes and specs and lore
>Watching video of some guys playing Persona 4 Arena
>Think that _____ character looks cool and I'd totally play them

arguing over Undertale and what it did right/wrong is way more fun than playing it

I get you. I follow competitive smash (don’t kill me pls) and I know a decent amount about it despite being admittedly trash at the game myself

Most definitely

Socializing about games can actually be really fun when you get into a good discussion. I personally enjoy reading well thought out and elaborate posts.

This when the discussion is good Yea Forums can be top tier. Me personally reading about lore or watching videos about a games development and the mindset behind it is extremely enjoyable since it gives me just that little bit extra out of the game I enjoy and on successive playthroughs it can really add to the experience.

tfw too dumb to have any thoughts about stuff i enjoy

Yea Forums doesn’t play games

I really enjoy some game design philosophy videos on youtube, particularly Adam Millard.

True. On rare occasions that RE threads go into discussion about science, they turn out to be best threads ever.

Absolutely. I might have spent more time reading the lore and wiki for games like WoW and Elder Scrolls more than actually playing them

That is a chunky bear

me too, why am I like this?

It's why Yea Forums exists.

I've been more interested in great lore/stories in vidya for years now, in most cases anyway.

I was the kid who read all the prima strategy guides in the bookstore because I couldn't afford the actual games.

I do this with WK40K. Would never bother with the games though.

I really enjoy thinking about game design, but I lack the dedication to develop anything.

Of course a useless faggot like you would pick the easy way

Yea Forums doesn't count as talking about games
