Vancouver Off-Topic / Current EventsThe off-topic forum for Vancouver, funnies, non-auto centered discussions, WORK SAFE. While the rules are more relaxed here, there are still rules. Please refer to sticky thread in this forum.
I’m still saddened by people’s reaction to this shit. Like who cares. Let these wackos have their fun. I guarantee some horny old men will like their singing and dancing. If they were cuter I’d even Hamsup them.
So now you're watching someone talk for 45 mins on stupid shit ... I don't know which is worst, wasting 30 seconds of your life watching the actual tiktok or listening to someone pontificate on it for 45 mins. Isn't there anything else to do in Nanaimo ... is it really that bad of a shithole?
the steering tire blew and there is nothing the driver could do. For once you can't blame the training, just bad luck where it happened but at least no one was hurt.
Anyone used Turo to rent cars? How was it? Just like AirBnB but for cars? Looking to get my fix this summer with a few cars and was curious what it's like.

You have a lot of time to kill when your favourite game is a remaster of something made 25 years ago. You have to wait a while to get enough players to start a game.

I used it in Cali and it was great. But the experience would very depending on the host. The one I used had over 200 cars in LA and had locations in 3 states.

I can't imagine paying people to watch them play video games.
It's funny, I played a LOT of video games as a kid & teens, even played a bit into my 20's. But somewhere along the way I lost nearly all interest in video games. Like once in a while on a blue moon and rainy day I'll fire up the Wii and play for an hour or so with my son, but otherwise I can't really remember the last new game I sat down and put the hours in to intentionally play through. Probably a decade or more, like maybe one of the Call of Duty's or something like that.
my style/tastes in gaming changed as i aged, i can't do grind/RPG's anymore
i like the quick games of FPS where i can turn it off after a game/round.
during the pandemic with nothing to do at home i discovered game streaming.
it's interesting watching pro/ex-pro players play for their strategy and proper play style, and how to improve your own game
i finally just finished diablo 3 and the expansion. Its been out for like what? 10 years? and i just got around to finishing it now. Story is a bit weak but whatever.
Now im ready for diablo 4 coming in june.... which ill probably start playing in 2033

I totally agree that watching someone play a game to learn something can be useful if you're looking to improve.
What really annoys me is when my kid watches a Youtuber play games with others and all they're doing is laughing/screaming/goofing off. Entertaining? Maybe, but what a waste of time...

How is it different than watching sports? I don't think anyone on RS is trying to make the NHL or the UFC.
Is watching the Canucks play adding anything of real value to anyones life?

That's a bit different... if you're old enough to be on RS, you're old enough to make your own decisions. I have no right to dictate what you do with your spare time. And watching sports, the people playing are competing, not screwing around just wasting time.
My younger son's 9 and he gets plenty of screen time already. I'd rather him play an actual video game than watch someone play a video game but with no real purpose.
My older teenage son also spends a lot of time on the computer. He's either playing a game, or watching someone play so that he can learn and get better himself.

I find that watching people on twitch is a decent way to passively kill time or whatever, even into my 40's. It has to be a very specific type of streamer, but there's millions of them so it's not hard to find one I like.
If I'm eating lunch at home alone, or chilling before bed after my wife has already gone to sleep, times like that.
And yeah when I played a lot of Apex, I got a lot better at the game after watching good players
