Why is it so much more amusing to watch someone play a video game than it is to play the game itself? (kbin.social)

I'm old now. I've finally realised I get more enjoyment from watching someone play than to actually play the game. Why is that? Do you experience that as well?

Sometimes watching the creative stuff people come up with is much more fun to me like in Minecraft than playing it myself. Or games where I found too frustrating to finish myself, but still liked the general story and atmosphere of the game.
