    All the time. Comes with not playing solo much. I think your question is not aimed at SWF players.

    Every time. We record our matches and watch all the way through every game. It sucks getting tunneled out early in this situation, but matches usually don't last very long right now.

    Unless your opponent is a Legion dead set on causing mending or a Doctor that only wants to drive you insane.

    Watching other survivors play the game is like watching Planet Earth.

    I don't know why it is so entertaining, but I watch almost every game to its conclusion, even if I'm sacrificed very early on.

    Sometimes. I will admit, some of the survivors I spectate are kind of funny.

    Almost always. Since I've been keeping stats on solo queue games I always have to wait until the end anyways to see the killer's build so I end up spectating my teammates if I'm dead.

    It’s rare for me now. If I do, it’s usually to confirm or see what perks the killer was running if they kept finding me hiding in spots I thought I was safe, or if they had a really nasty build with perks I couldn’t remember the full description/power.

    Unless its the very end of the game I leave right away. Otherwise I watch the rest

    Yeah but I have this tendency to die third, so I'm curious to see how the last person goes

    I generally do, unless the killer was playing so dirty that I don't want to waste time watching the rest of the players get slaughtered.

    If my friend is out of the game, it also depends on whether he wants to stay and watch or if we queue up again.

    I do think it is interesting to see how a survivor I have judged as being useless can loop. Often I am pleasantly surprised to find them playing well after my demise

    No I'm out, my time is precious so I need to optimize it. I can max do 3-4 games a day anyway.

    I spectate a good amount of matches. If I die very early then I skip, as I have no emotional investment into that match, but if its just 2 gens left or something, then I often wanna know who makes it. You can also learn quite a few tricks or tactics by viewing the match through some experienced survivors eyes.

    I do, mostly every time. I want to see how it ends, unless it takes to long. It gives you a nice little break and sometimes you can learn something.

    Nah, usually a waste of time. Better to jump in another trial and start getting BPs.

    If the gate is 99'd I'll pop it and run out, then watch the other two try to save the hooked survivor...and die.. they all die.... muahahahahaha!

    I stay a lot - I also like to message people if I can if I think they're being done dirty. E.g. the other day I died on Midwich and the Billy was literally just running round carrying the Mikaela who refused to wiggle off. As such, the Nea was Trapped by the constant terror radius presence and not knowing what to do. There was 0.5 of a gen left, so I just gave her a little nudge to say she could probably go do the gen unmolested.

    I also get a bit offended when Twitch streamers don't hang around to see how the team do. I enjoy their commentary.

    I think I only really do if I was one of the last 2 people left, and then I died. Then I'll usually stick around to see if that person make it out.

    I often do, if I didn't spectate I would've missed out on a lot of "just leave!" moments. Especially escaping through the gates after making sure everyone else was healthy and accounted for then watching them somehow convert that into a 3k

    Not really.

    If i die at the very end of the match, sure! If I'm in a SWF group there is a chance as well, but I usually just move on to spend my BP.

    That said, I wish the chat would save and display messages you leave for everyone that leaves the game after you, so I can say "ggs" and have the others see it once the game ended. You could grey out the username, if they have already left to avoid confusion.

    Depends on the game. If I went down saving someone else it can be fun to see if it paid off or not.

    If it was a particularly good game I might hang around spectating to the end to throw out some gg’s and props.

    Typically queue times are long enough without hanging out in game, usually I just move on when playing solo. More games to be had.

    Only if I died due to bad teammates just to see if they made it out. Most of the time they don't, which is gratifying.

    It depends on the match. I'm 50/50. I usually watch if the match was exceptionally good or comedically bad and ignore the in between.

    Sometimes, if the killer was a dbag and I want it to not work out well for them, or if one of my team sandbagged me or left me to die and I want to see them die. Especially if it is one of those who just wants ignore objectives and immerse and wait for hatch when we're down to two and the match is unwinnable.

    I really want to see them get sacrificed.

    And sometimes if one of my team is really, really good, I just want to watch and learn from their gameplay.

    Or if I just want something to watch while I eat a snack or something after the match.
