Terry Crews is smart enough to realize how shitty let's plays are. Why can't you Sup Forums? let's plays are for children. Not person over the age of 12 should be watching them.

Just because you don't understand something, doesn't mean the thing is dumb. I prefer watching Lets Plays because it's just easier after a long day.

>video games is work to him
the current state of 'gaming'

>Adapts to get into what his son likes instead of the other way around to bond with him
Best dad right there.
Meanwhile my pops and I have so little in common, the only thing we share are the genes

Out of curiosity, who do you watch? I used to watch people like NintendoCapriSun when I was younger but I'm not even sure if he's still making videos anymore. Who are good current let's players?

>Your dad gets mad at you for not playing video games

I didn't know such a Dad existed...

>When you're dad finally gets his shit together, goes to AA, finds a new wife, and is better himself in more productive ways is the same year that you spiral into alcoholism

Fuck this planet.

based black man

>You will never build a PC with Terry Crews

feels bad man

You're taking what he said completely out of context, he never even implied he doesn't like let's plays. Try harder.

You are a loser.

>there are people on this board young enough to have watched Let's Plays as a kid

>Dad asks "What's that?"
>fuck
>Dad: "I mean, I know it's a girl, but what is it?"
>Me: "Video game character."
>Dad: "Oh..." *walks out silently*

>pc gaming

waste of money

Pretty sure a few thousand dollars for a bonding experience with his son is nothing to this millionaire celebrity.

Yeah, about 8-9 years ago.

>tfw you learn who's getting shot in that photo

Shouldn't you just be sitting of the sofa and watch TV and commercials?

Based Crews knows that only beta cucks watch let's plays. The only reason you should watch someone else play videogames are if you're curious about the game and are considering buying/pirating it.

That doesn't make sense though

Honestly I'd be worried too if I walked in on my son watching Let's Plays. It's like walking in on your son masturbating to furry shemale porn with a dildo in his ass.

>I remember coming in and watching my son and I thought he was talking to someone.
>and he wasn't. he was actually watching someone else talk to someone else on the television
>And I was like "wait, wait, you're not chatting? You're not - what is this?"

>And I realized I was losing my son.

Chuggaconroy started uploading lets plays in 2008. If user started watching in 2009 as a ten year old, user would be eighteen now.
A friend of mine started watching lets plays in middle school. He graduated from high school two years ago.

>Why can't you Sup Forums?
I never watched them faggot, Sup Forums is not one person

>le sports comparison meme
it's important to distinguish professional football with casual gameplay
also understandable is watching your child play a sport, it's you're child, it's no different from watching/playing with your son in a video game.

Boy, old people really hate let's plays, huh?

shit's been around as early as 2004 (only counting it as an internet fad) so it's not that shocking.

>son can't turn off the TV and become a football superstar
>son can turn off the lets play and play a videogame

Have Let's Plays been popular for that long? I don't think I even heard of them until my friend told me about Game Grumps 3 or 4 years ago.

He didn't get mad at him, he thought "this is something my son is interested in and I don't understand it at all. I'm going to learn about it and become closer to my son." Then he did and became a normie gamer.

Started watching in 2008 as a 12 year old I believe, maybe 2009 as a 12 year old before my birthday. Watched them until I was about 14.

>son can turn off the lets play and become a professional gamer or "celebrity" like pewdiepie

no

Awful analogy, try food next time.

Apples and oranges. You wasted so much time coming up with that shitty comparison.

Minecraft came out 8 years ago and Let's Plays started becoming popular a year or two after that.

why yes, fellow kid, they sure do.
unless us, amirite? sure love me some chuggerconnroy.

They are envious there are people out there making big bucks doing what they do for free.

>people who didn't even watch the video the OP provided
>don't realize tarry was saying "i don't understand thing, so i should try and understand thing so i can spend more time with my boy"
>everyone twisting it into le epic streamer culture shitposting

sigh

Well let's plays have changed I believe. It used to be one person playing through the entire game (usually doing an 100% run) but because of sites like Roosterteeth they became a few short videos of people playing through a part of the game.

mostly wage slaves which is pathetic

a feel good thread? on my Sup Forums? lol fuck off

Is he /ourguy/?

>And I realized I was losing my son
Holy shit terry crews have mercy

What a great dad though

Honestly, it can be pretty entertaining but it just reminds me that I don't have many friends.

>think my son is eating pizza
>he's watching someone else eat pizza
>he was like "oh no, this is so and so, he's the hit guy. He's eating..."
>youngsters will unironically defend this

lets play are for watching non games

Tell Chris he can watch whatever the fuck he wants to, Julius.

Still his point was that he wanted to assemble a PC to PLAY games with his son, not to watch games with him.

Your point is moot.

Cool dude.

>people responding to the out-of-context quote in the image
>it's completely different in context
lol

Are there any youtube channels where I can watch people watch movies?

playing video games is boring and watching them is even worse so he is right.

>This entire video just made me remember I asked my dad for help building my PC because he works in computers and knows his shit and we could actually do something together
>Last minute he backed out and just threw me the extra cash to go buy one prebuilt
>Terry Crews will never be my dad and save me from streamers

>I prefer watching Lets Plays because it's just easier after a long day
>After a long day I prefer to watch recordings of others enjoying a leisure activity rather then partake in said activity myself

>I remember coming in and watching my son and I thought he was eating a Burger King Whopperito.
>and he wasn't. he was actually watching someone else eat a Burger King Whopperito on the computer
>And I was like "wait, wait, you're not eating your own Burger King Whopperito? You're not - what is this?"
>he was like "oh no, this is so and so, he's a big guy. He's eating..."
>I said, I don't understand this

>And I realized I was losing my appetite.

I hate you.

>I don't like thing ergo it is for children and anyone who disagrees is incorrect

Gotta be 18+ to post here. Fuck off and neck yourself, fagling.

Did you think his dad beat him when he got wapparito on the suit?

Taken out of context. He likely meant that he couldn't relate to his son's interests when it came to LPs. It's just a typical sad dadism.

longplays > let's plays

i still don't get why he's a thing but i love him

mst3k is the closest that comes to mind.
there was also that shia lebouf stream a couple years back.

Interesting to note that it is entirely possible to play sports casually. More fun than watching pros play, too.

kek

wrongpuraes > longplays

2bh, minecraft youtubers are pretty much moder babysitters.

>Chuggaconroy
I used to watch his pokemon let's plays

you really are some idiot

Most Let's Plays are shit, especially these days, but I still really like Pokecapn's Sonic 2006 Let's Play. I watch it once every year.

I bet you fag don't even remember viddler

I watch these
youtu.be/Dl6HkHMqRtQ
no commentary, no bullshit

>Terry Crews

I have no interest in watching Let's Plays but I make them (which is enjoyable) and they get thousands of views

>tfw all let's plays used to be longplays

no one actually cares about sports. it's just an excuse to invite people over to have something to talk about. you ever watch an entire game dead sober alone? didn't think so.

>4 hour campaign
jesus

>black men are now smarter than Sup Forums
Nice.

>4 hours of cinematics

nice "game"

>I watch it once every year.
Why?

my cat is smarter than Sup Forums

You better have built your own anyways fagboy.

Nice! I used to do let's plays with my friend. Not anymore since he got a gf... Fun times though.

>all black men are smart

don't be racist. some are absolute dinguses.

please, please leave

I spent the weekend at a friend's house and I woke up each morning to his 7 year old daughter watching obnoxious Roblox personalities whilst playing the game as well; my friend would not wake up for another 2.5 hours still and I wanted more rest
Really just made me think about how parenting has become so lazy with the advent of "digital babysitters," as my mother called them

The only "Let's Plays" I watch are the ones that are more about the people playing it than the game. Like Cr1tikal or dunkey

you know you're really not in any position to say that

you lost grandpa, it's time for you to leave

>getting kneeled on by your wife's son
baka senpai

*sigh*
shill your channel. let's get it over with.

>tfw your parents weren't interested in anything you ever did as a child

>people here still defending watching someone else play video games for 2+ hours
>people posting in this thread probably donated to streamers

>Grow up being told you can't play video games for a living
>Some people end up doing just that
>become eternally ass devastated and wish for their utter destruction

A real human bean

Just because you don't understand something, doesn't mean the thing is dumb. I prefer watching niggers fucking my wife because it's just easier after a long day.

You jest, I think, but honestly, and to the surprise of no one with a brain, I've noticed that since LPs are becoming less financially lucrative or stable due to the monetization policies adjusting or the fact there's just much fewer slices of the pie to grab, more people seem to be conveniently denouncing LPs or games in general.

Maybe that's the sell here, but I'm honestly touched Terry is concerned about his kid's interests and activity. Not even mad at him, but just worried. So many parents are privy to leave their kids in front of a screen because it's easier on them.

there are short days?

some of us don't have any real friends you stupid normie bully ;'(

...

pre-recorded Let's plays are the past, the new hot thing is streaming, the amount of donation money a single streaming session can earn you is astounding
