I often get a vicarious feeling from...

Here's a question from the IELTS test:

Would you watch others play video games?

My answer is "Sure, I can often get a vicarious feeling from those who play the video games which I play".

Is the italic okay? Please help me with natural version.

I would delete "can", and change "feeling" (which is rather vague) to "enjoyment".

It's overly wordy. Say "I play video games vicariously by watching [people playing] them online".

Sorry, I haven't made myself clear.

I want to say that, when I watch others play computer games, I have the vicarious feelings they have. They win, I win. They lose, I lose. It's like watching a football match. The fact is that I don't play any games, just watching others play.

So, is it better to say "I usually get a vicarious sensation by watching people playing video games online".

Much appreciated!
