Let’s Talk About Backseat Gaming, And Me.
Had a moment on stream where I wanted to discuss backseat gaming, and let you guys into my world and into my head a little bit. Hope it finds you well.

Would love your input and feedback. I will always put my own fun-factor above everything else, because it's the life-blood of my efforts on this channel. Without fun, there is no videos, and I want to be as transparent as possible about anything that makes the experience "not fun" for me. — That said, hopefully these words find you well, and you're encouraged to reach out and speak with me on videos. I love comments, and 98% of the comments are awesome. For the 2% I'm talking about… I understand your intentions. Hopefully now you can better understand mine.
I just love your content Charlie. I don't really care how you play the games. You're a pretty smart guy. I do miss KSP 🙁 But Keep doing your thing. You don't need me to tell you that you're doing a good job… but you are.
Sorry Charlie ur great stay safe
There is another aspect besides "expertese" and "helping" to backseating, namely the desire to talk about a common interest.
Especially common in niche games that aren't popular, where people don't have others to talk to about a game that they like.
The commenter just tends to be unaware that the youtuber/streamer often isn't as much of a nerd about the game as they are, or simply just started playing it a short time ago and can't take part in a detailed conversation about the game yet.
Charlie, first I want to say I hope you're dodging the flu bug! At almost 74 I've been pretty lucky warding off the flu bug for many years now. Also, I know I have a tendency to backseat, especially on games I have hundreds or thousands of hours in. However I also do not mind harsh reminders when I forget and go overboard. On yesterday's stream 'find Arhu" I told Robot about a couple clues I noticed, the tufts of cat hair and the smear of blood near the hatch. Didn't bring up the painting on purpose. Later I spotted the 'swornbreaker' during the fight before reload, and passed him a hint or two…got the 'evil eye' for that one, but it worked out.
Love your content Charlie, but admit I haven't commented for a while because I didn't want to spoil anything for you, don't take that as a negative I enjoy seeing you play it your way, and learn new ways of playing from you. Sometimes.. what not to do 😉
Awesome point of view Charlie! I wholly agree with you. I would love to see more Mars? Just starting your Anno videos (I know I'm behind lol). Would love to catch a live stream someday.
Totally agree with you, nothing better than experiencing trial, error and joy of discovery! as you said, i-m not here expecting pro level flawless game, i-m here because i enjoy watching you play
Also, idk how youtube only people works, i know from your streams that you don-t like the backseat gaming, it-s not like you are censoring for "trying to help", it-s being polite and respecting you!
Loving your anno series <3 can-t wait to put my hands on that game
Well the only thing keep me going is you doing silly stuff in stream so yeah love you and your content man
well charlie… loved this vid 😀 and again, I never EVER wanna try to puppet string play someone else. but you said you gonna try to grow and handle better… so imma try to grow and try not to throw info.. < whispers > but sometimes dunno what else to say so expect things like hey! good vid ROFL but… the "phrase as a Q"… I gotta keep that in mind 😀
