I'll admit it's pretty cool to watch someone who has mastered a certain game run a clinic, but like I've said before, my gaming time itself is limited, so I won't waste much of it watching someone else play a game
This.
You can learn a lot about a game watching someone who puts in 5-8 hours a day.

That makes a lot of sense. I figured it was mostly for entertainment or to watch playstyles, but a combination of both seems pretty cool for those who have the time for it.
I probably would have spent tons of time watching streamers when I was in high school/college/right out of college.

Maybe it's me becoming an old man, but is this productive? Mastering gaming..
However, I do enjoy Twitch, but not for the "streamers". I think it's a good platform to scope out new games to play. It is very interesting when you browse 20-30 random streamers playing the same game, you get to see many different approaches and play styles. Sometimes I'm not interested in a title until I see someone approach a game differently, the way I would enjoy.

If you're the type to constantly play online games where you're competing against other people then yeah, I think there's value in sharpening those skills a bit for the simple fact that winning is more fun than losing. Not every gamer is like that nor plays those types of games though. It's a "to each their own" type thing.

Sorry if this is hijacking this thread, but what gives watching streamers such appeal? I am genuinely curious, as I may have to give it a try.
I enjoy watching a few people play just because are their incredible skill
Watching Chocotaco carelessly dumpster people in PUBG is a sight to see. Plus he's super chill. Doc on the other hand, I enjoy watching him just from a pure entertainment standpoint, plus it helps that he's usually pretty damn good at the games too
ESPN is a shitshow these days with its programming, so I just prefer to browse twitch
