    But streams tend to make the most mistakes as they get too distracted by chat or whatever while playing and forget they also can read in-game prompts

      Theres more to it than that of course, sometimes you just want to have a fresh viewpoint at a game or may not like the genre but like the story or some mechanics. I typically do like more “competent” creators but thats more reserved for videos, on streams you can interact with the streamer in real time on their thoughts about the game. Also sometimes i just want to watch someone else drive because my brain too tired

      Ah but I’m never watching livestreams, I like pre-prepared videos of interesting street layouts in Cities Skylines or weekly in-game discounts updates in GTA online.

      Depends on the streamer. Some are really good at compartmentalizing things and can out-think me in games while still having conversation. Those are the real fun ones to watch.
