    I think there’s a lot of skill in what people do to make a video game and I can appreciate that.

    A lot of people watch sports for the same reason that they appreciate skill.

    It’s really not that big of a stretch in comparison. I’m actually surprised I’ve had to connect these exact same dots for a lot of sports fans. You can argue physical skill but on the flipside with games There’s the story. There’s the art. There’s the code.

    This is why I liked the mythic quest series. It drives home that there’s people (a lot of people) plugging away behind the scenes to make some masterpieces

    Same with watching movies. Cinematography, acting, directing, story, effects. Many human made things involving skill, teamwork and effort to appreciate in our life surrounding us.

    And we listen to music for these same reasons too. We don’t just go out and have to make music just to be enthralled by it.
