Actually, yeah, you should pay more. Because of the incremental labour. Not only did people bother to MAKE the game, but people laboured to PLAY the game. And, lets's face it, the reason why they are entertaining to watch is because they are actually (let's face it) BETTER at playing the game, than you. aka: me.
It's like psychotherapy. Which is to say, it's no fun at all when you have to watch someone who isn't as smart as you, struggle along...
It's when people are better at it... And you get the heave ho factor... That's what makes it useful / entertaining.
And the platform does matter. What goes on behind the scenes.
It's really hard for most people to assess. So it's hard for most people to know how to reward appropriately.
The fact that many players who are worthy of watching are supported by a whole 'mod team'.
Yeah.
