watching streams feels like a chore

You're literally sitting there for hours listening &amp; watching grey noises, waiting for a 3-5 minutes of moments that will be clipped later anyway

It's very rare that I directly watch streams, and I'd wager this is true for many others as well. I prefer having them on the background when I'm doing housework, studying etc. If they're playing a game I'm really interested in though, I give my undivided attention

why do people watch sport? just watch the highlights later on. Why do people watch movies, just watch a summary about it.

There are people who actually do that

Sounds like a Hololive issue.

>watching grey noises

Skill issue. Good chuubas are consistently entertaining.

My oshi sings in her livestreams, watching it live is just as good as watching the VOD and clips are no good.

you watch TV right? same thing

>TV

I have not seen one in 3 years, just netflix crunchyroll and such

>>48294025 (OP)

then don't

For me it depends on what they're playing honestly. If it's something boring or I don't particularly care for I'll just have it in the background and tune back in if there's something interesting happening.

On the other hand, there's something really fun to watching someone experience something you love and enjoy for the first time or they're really passionate about themselves.

To gain the approval of some anons /here/

"livestreams" is a bit vague. Streams of stuff like Minecraft are mostly background noise/2nd screen stuff for me. Karaoke/instrument practice/some games are more engaging, but I'll still do something else at the same time. And finally there's really engaging streams like concerts or tournaments.



So in my case at least, it never feels like a chore. Clips/summaries also don't give you the experience of watching the streams, because you didn't actually watch it. I value/enjoy more the experience of watching streams than knowledge about them, so I watch them.

>tfw can't watch or interact with the streamers because their schedule conflict with my work

>tfw can't use it as grey noises because any noises will break my concentration

>tfw streamers that I can watch play games that don't interest me

used to watch my friends play video games growing up. imagine my surprise when this evolved even further beyond let's plays, and into anime girls that are pretty cute

Background Noise.

sure and there are merits for it. I remember getting bored watching a medicore match or movie but when it's good it's the best. I do watch clips of some vtubers because time is limited but when i compare it to the stream there are at least 20 good scenes in it but only 4 get clips, multiple clips...

It's fun and watching a live event

You watch it because you enjoy it, you fucking muppet.
