I never cease to be amazed how there always seems to be a video guide out there for anything to do with an MMO, even if it’s some mundane, two-second activity. But I’m not complaining, either, because sometimes it’s really helpful to see something explained — whether it be a boss fight or a tricky quest — than to read a step-by-step description.
That said, I don’t really dip into strategy videos unless I get stumped or I’m worried about looking like a fool in a brand-new dungeon. Generally I like to figure things out on my own, even if my choices end up being less-than-optimal.
What about you? Do you watch MMO strategy videos, and if you do, what drives you to viewing them?
