    I took the comment you’re replying to to mean “I was hooked, so when I read that sentence I stopped reading about this game so that I could go play this game”

      That’s how I took it as well. If someone says “watch or play X but don’t look up anything about it” I know its either gonna be a meme or a great story. Either way I win.

      I think I used a mental shortcut and assumed their reason was due to frustration because a fairly common context for sentences like the one in the comment I replied to is due to reasons of disagreement or dislike due to opinion, quality, lack of information, or some other reason.
