    I watch games about the game in gaming, but I also watch games about my game when I’m not gaming. Therefore by definition my gaming will be less than my watching gaming.

      What if gaming time is 4 hours, you spend 3/4 of gaming time playing games, and you watch gaming videos for one hour outside gaming time?

        You have to watch the video of the game you are playing in order to play the game you are playing. By definition… (if you are video gaming) all bets are off for boardgamers!

            The point is if you are video gaming you are literally watching a video of yourself playing the game. That is why it is "video"gaming…

        What if gaming time is 4 hours

        I remember not having kids…

        Now gaming time, if I’m lucky, is like 30 mins a week. Much of that spent patching and remembering wtf I was doing last time I played.

        Not counting playing with them, at least. Though they spend more time watching Minecraft videos than playing Minecraft, so there’s that.
