Literally how I play chess, can't be bothered to do math and just doing gut feeling... I think we need an full rules revamp for chess!

You can sort of simulate that with Blitz! No time to calculate.

Blitz is too slow. In bullet you can think up to 1 (one) move.

You underestimate my slowness...

Imagine taking a game played for millenia for fun and ruining it by following a goddamn meta you read in a BOOK

This is why chess is so much better when your stoned.

Its also super fun when your opponent realizes mid game they have been underestimating you based on that meta.

The more obvious i blunder at the start the more chance my opponent allows me to pull something creative that turns things around later on.

This is why I like Go better.

[-] Xanvial@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

Yeah, it's easier compared to C++

[-] Luvs2Spuj@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Go also has books though?

My son gets nervous every time we play chess, wondering what clever ploy his parent is planning. Always seems shocked at my moves and contemplates them heavily before taking his turn.

But he's a fool. I'm just stupid.

The buttplug will guide me.

[-] Klear@lemmy.world 20 points 1 month ago

Oh, I calculate. If I do this, the opponent can do this, this or this, but if he does this I will do this...

*Opponent does that*

Why the fuck did I think that was a good idea?

You can’t tame this wild Horsey piece.
