How does Southperry feel about Let's Plays?

Good commentators make let's plays good. It's all about the commentator, it's the same reason i watch starcraft streams and starcrafts matches. It's fun because of good commentators.

Video commentaries aren't the same as LPs. LPs are usually about as interesting as watching over someone's shoulder while they're playing a game. Unless it's something like I Wanna Be The Guy as mentioned above when you've played it and you KNOW what's going to happen when they walk under that apple, it's usually pretty boring, even if the commentary is good. I don't watch LPs.

Commentaries are reviews of pre-recorded material where either you or someone else played through a game or a match, and they can be interesting, especially if you cut out boring parts and/or use your knowledge/expertise to highlight things that the average viewer wouldn't otherwise pay attention to.

Other things that can be interesting to watch are speed runs and perfect runs.
