It started with 2 Girls 1 Cup I think, they couldn't actually show the video on youtube but people could celebrate the meme through reaction videos. Some people just like to see others' over the top reaction, I guess. It would explain why Pewdiepie is like the richest guy on the internet.

Chocolate. Can someone explain to me why this is a thing? What's the appeal?

>>73318
Chocolate has fat and sugar which are the preferred food sources of humans because they are dense with calories.

I never understood the appeal of watching someone watch something either. They aren't adding anything to the experience.

>>73325
Yeah, or watching people play things. Why do people like let's plays?

someone make a reaction video to this thread

The bad news is that we live in a time where people can put videos of damn near anything on the Internet for all to share, but look at the bright side: we live in a time where people can put videos of damn near anything on the Internet for all to share.

Let's Plays have some utility if you're interested in a game but not sure if you want it, also fun if the games are horrible. It can be used as a sorta "first-reaction" review.

Lets Plays are a bit more understandable. You're not watching the persons face as they play the game, you are watching them play the game from their perspective. If you're stuck at a certain part of a game and are too stupid to read a GameFAQs walkthrough they can be helpful.

A ballza LPer can show you interesting easter eggs, odd bugs one can exploit for a laugh or provide insightful commentary. Shitty ones, which most are of course, just play the game and expect you to hop on their d whenever they make a joke.

>>73348 Yeah, but they usually have specific videos for strategy, exploits, Easter eggs and the like. Let's Plays are almost always some dipshit with an annoying voice simply playing through the game, giving running commentary and trying out his shitty stand-up routine.

Also, is there some sort of YouTube regulation that says literally every gaming video has to start off with the phrase, "Hey guys, it's ______..." Come up with a new intro, for fuck's sake.
