Why is it so fun to watch other people game? In theory, the fun of gaming is that you get to experience the point of view of your player. You get to make the decisions, decide what they do, and live vicariously through them. It's your skill and creativity put to the test. But it's also so weirdly relaxing to watch someone else do that for you, especially if they're good at it. It can help you get better at the game, seeing their little tips and tricks. It's also nice to sometimes take a more passive approach that lets you still enjoy a game while you wash the dishes or work on your knitting.

It has become a behemoth of a subgenre of the internet, and sure isn't going anywhere. So while you're tuning into your favorite stream, these gaming memes are here to add an extra layer of entertainment. Scroll responsibly.
