I play a baseball simulation league game and in the Reddit devoted to it, people post videos of them playing the game and opening reward packages and the like. I'm torn as to what is more face-palming, making that video or watching it.
Unboxing videos? I don't get that at all.
Without getting into whole nature of the game (MLB 9 Innings), it's basically collecting virtual baseball cards, training the players on them to develop their skills, and building a team that competes in various simulations. Playing the games gives you packages of cards of various values and some people save them up and then open them while they're recording. And, I dunno, you're supposed to go, "Oooo, a 2019 Verlander!" Why the fuck anyone would find that even remotely interesting is beyond me.


You were asking for it.
I don't watch those videos! The game is mostly an outlet for my need for routines.
