I really try to avoid watching playthroughs if I have any interest in a game and haven't played it. The few exeptions are...
Until Dawn: watched Easy Allies play it because they are fun to watch and I had no money to ever buy the game.
Brothers: I wanted to see what it was about from a development point of view but I didn't have time to play it myself.
Halo 5: I knew I wouldn't be getting an Xbox One for years.
Sunset Overdrive: same as Halo 5.
Ryse: same as Halo 5.
I only watch playthroughs if a youtuber/ streamer I watch is playing them. If I plan on playing it myself then I'll avoid watching them, I did this for Divinity 2.
Only exceptions to this are Until Dawn; I don't like playing horror games but I still wanted to see it played, and Skyrim; I was very interested in the story but found it incredibly boring to play, so I stopped playing and watched a story playthrough from I think Ghost Robo.
I don't ever. And I look down on those who do.

If I really cared about a story, I'd just read a wiki page about it. Or find some short video summary. I can't imagine watching a playthrough just to get through the story. Especially of a game like Skyrim.

Really cared and just reading a wiki page don't compute for me. If I 'really cared' I would for sure play the game or watch a playthrough, I'd want to know and experience every story detail.
Reading a wiki page for me would just be for a game that I'm slightly interested in or intrigued by but don't really want to invest any time into.

If you say so. :o
I just don't get why people would rather watch games.
