Wtf I hate sports now

Why are "nerds" so defensive and snarky? I'm pretty sure most people who watch sports also play video games and a lot even watch other people play FIFA or Madden for example.

That's the dumbest analogy I've ever seen

its not the same

Reminder that E-Gamers are Professional Athletes

>watching someone play a video game you can play yourself is the same as watching people play a sport on a level you will never be able to participate in
You'd think nerds would be smarter

i also hate watching some random streamer but watch pros playing dota2 matches at tournaments.
Depends on the situation

Yeah, Big Tel down the pub loves nothing better than getting home pissed up and watching a few Let's Plays

Have you seen gaymergayte?

I don't really watch let's plays, but I like watching the occasional quake live (or soon to be champions?) duel between pros

a better analogy would be "esports" and real sports

What if you watch professional e-athletes who play e-sports on a level you will never be able to participate in?

what if you watch people watching a guy playing FIFA on an illegal stream on a finno-ugric boat painting forum?

>watching some guy play Mirror's Edge full with autistic commentary when you could be playing the fucking game yourself

>yfw the polar bears win the superb international owl

lets plays and basic YT shit is lame, I will never watch a game that the streamer is doing for entertainment. Theres three reason to watch a streamer
>pro tournaments
>pros who you can copy strats off of
>boobie streamers
everything else is autism

Well excluding people over the age of 40 years old sure, but in this scenario it's obviously two house mates of a similar age, I don't know anybody of our generation who likes sports but still thinks video games are for virgin nerds, video games are 100% normie now.

>>boobie streamers
there's so much porn in the internet and you are watching a fully clothed unfunny cunt playing some game

>e-Athletes
>eSports

Why the fuck would I watch that stupid shit?

It's not really different than real sports at that point in terms of vicariousness. I watched pro SFIV tournaments back when I was into that game, for example. But comparing Let's Plays with pro sports is pants-on-head retarded.

gay b8

There's no way I'd ever touch a video game
Video games are degenerate wastes of time.

I watch video game streamers if they make me laugh. The video game in that scenario though is mostly just to fill the void, comedians on TV and Radio are boring as shit these days.

ur entire life is a degenerate waste of time

>t. jaded permavirgin
also same fag
Yeah I follow alot of streamers who are funny but aren't pros, really only tune in if they're playing a newly released game

this isn't even how bad it is now

now people are watching other people WATCHING OTHER PEOPLE with these "reaction" videos

>now people are watching other people WATCHING OTHER PEOPLE with these "reaction" videos
I have never found the logic behind that.

it's just begun Eivind

Voyeurism and/or the need to feel like you're watching videos with other humans. Pathetic really, but I guess it makes sense to normies who crave social interaction but can't get it.

Daily reminder this Swedish white supremacist became a millionaire with youtube while you all use it FOR FREE

the logic is that they have seen the video but don't have any frins so they pretend to have friends by watching someone react to something they reacted to.

correct analogy would be watching someone watching sports

Youtubers are 100% celebrities to kids these days, it's like Alan Shearer giving his reaction to the game on MoTD. Honestly if you ask a kid what they want to be when they grow up they'll probably say they want to be the next Zoella or KSI.

A lot of it is young children/teens who watch it on their phone or tablet when alone. They jump from those odd Spider-man/Elsa videos to Let's play and reaction videos. Oh and "prank" videos.

If you watch other people play games then you're a dumb piece of shit. Who are you gonna talk to this about? Some user online?
We watch sports because we go out with bros, fuck bitches at night wearing our jerseys, we talk about last nights game over the water cooler at work, we go out to buffalo wild wings to watch with our loyal fanbase. What the fuck are you going to do with your life with a level 30 account in counter strike? Get the fuck off my board.

KSI actually quit youtube and is battling depression currently.

>a level 30 account in counter strike
probably nothing because that's kinda a low level in csgo you know and it's not like level matters either

why did you take that bait?

Sup Forums blown the fuck out

good

I watch sports because I sometimes find the competition entertaining.

You seem to be living your life with an amazing amount of inefficiency.

i take everything written here as 100% reality true and honest

Reminder these "video game streamers" live in mansions and you live in a small apartment

>my local bww closed because no one went there
Kek

He said he had inner demons and feels better now without youtube

This user's right

Well according to the internet he has a net worth of around 11 million so I don't feel to bad for him, he probably doesn't need to work again for the rest of his life if he's invested in property etc.

>In a more recent interview KSI told the interviewer, Keemstar, that he no longer cared about fame and his career. To prove that the youtube superstar no longer cared about fame, he deleted all of his videos and removed himself from social media. He will no longer be earning thousands of dollars from the videos that he deleted from his channel and sponsorships.
>He expressed that he was truly unhappy with how he acted on video and how people perceived him as a person.
>KSI said he quit YouTube because of his "emotions and inner-demons" that dragged him down. In the interview with Keemstar he said that he was "more alive than ever before" after quitting his YouTube career and reevaluating his life.

money ain't everything

>fuck bitches at night wearing our jerseys

this is the most American thing ever

USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA!

It certainly helps if you can quit your job and fall back on millions of pounds though. All he has to do now is buy some houses in London, wait for them to double or triple in value and then sell, the rest of his life is sorted.

You aren't really watching for the game you're watching to be entertained by a personality. Gaming is the just the vehicle that's used.

>"esports" and real sports
>Making this distinction
pathetic.

too bad he's spending all that money on a penthouse in London, he got it last summer or something
