Why do you watch playthroughs of games you haven't played?

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.
