The real cuck energy is never actually playing the games and just watching streamers

    The real real cuck energy is buying the game on Steam without waiting for a sale, and then watching the let’s play of it

    Same with movies.

    It's annoying when you ask someone if they've seen a film you loved. Only for when you start talking about it, they reveal they just watched a Youtube summary and ruined the whole thing for themselves...

    People who do this are very odd to me. I'm not sure if its a younger person thing or what. I think people can't sit still for a movie now.

    I just watch summaries for two reasons

    1. I don't have the time to sit down for two or more hours to watch a story that's riddled with plot holes
    2. Due to poor sound and visual editing from the last decade, I don't have the patience to squint to see and read everything on subtitles

    if I'm going to read anything it's going to be a book or a foreign film that's at least original and edited well.

    I ain't gonna disagree on this point.

    But I will say not knowing about whatever popular franchise isn't a crime. And I'm tired of people pretending like they have to "keep up" with everything even if they have no real interest in it.

    Those are two (perfectly valid) reasons for not watching full-length films, but they're not reasons to watch summaries. Watching the summary is worth it if you enjoy that experience, but even as another soul who barely watches any movies I am kind of curious myself to understand the appeal.

    Depends - i do not watch let's plays for anything i am actually interested in, but i have no qualms with watching them for lower quality games just for fun. And that even lead me to some games i wouldn't ever had touched without seeing the let's play.
