This, for instance, is not (Gaming)
If you've played it and haven't noticed that there's almost nothing you can get out of it by playing that you can't get by watching someone else play, then you weren't really paying attention.
You had to do NONE of the mapping and figuring out where to go in that game. The person you watched did that himself. If you think that someone else figuring out where to go and how to get there versus YOU doing it is an insignificant difference, you are completely and utterly wrong.
You would see how tedious it is, and you can't zone out or skip like you could on a let's play. Even if your attention was 100% focused on the video the entire time, it's STILL different because the let's player is doing the route planning and moving the character and you aren't.
