it is significantly more engaging to watch people play MMOs when they've
unbound all their action bars from their number keys and are forced to click
on all the abilities. That way you can actually follow what moves they're
doing.

I like to play with the camera zoomed in all the way and by only using my
mouse. no keyboard. just clicking noise.

pretend like you're playing leap-frog
one person goes up to a sightline, watches with bated breath, another
cautiously advances through the area covered by their teammate, before
covering their back-to-forth advancement. first one, then the other, watch out
for flanks.

speedrunners forget how to play (toy) their favorite toys and learn how to
play (instrument) their favorite instruments
EDIT: it can be relearned. focus on the tandem.

@user-110 Exactly! I play games to practice strategy and empathy, not to stand
triumphant over a virtual foe. Why should I care for the lessons of others
when mine so often go unlearnt?

chess, while being SO much more fun to watch.
