Does a Let’s Play qualify as a web series?
My wife and I have been watching several Let’s Plays on Youtube by MasaeAnela. Wind Waker, Twilight Princess, and Tales of Symphonia so far I think.
watching someone else play a video game was considered a form of torture. 😉
Why is that? …Maybe if they have no idea what they’re doing.
But a Let’s Play’s enjoyment hinges more on the quality of the commentary than the skill of the gameplay.
It’s the commentary that turns me away. It’s almost always an annoying “nerd” type who talks too much.
Watching a skilled player play through a Zelda title can be cool, watching the story unfold like a movie. But usually it’s like watching your roommates obnoxious friend play while your roommate isn’t even home.

I just remember other kids in the neighborhood or my older sisters and brothers would play video games and I would sit and watch and be really bored because I wanted to be the one playing it.
Yes! It’s like watching RotS!
