The more I learned about chess, the less I wanted to play it. It’s a beautiful game (the perfect game, according to some). But it has way too much memorization for me, and software has left human players in the dust.
Yea same. As soon as I realized I’d have to start reading theory books to improve, I just lost interest. It’s a nice game when you play it as a human being, but the best way to play is unfortunately to play it as a machine would.
I now watch a lot of Starcraft 2 esports instead haha. It’s more interesting and dynamic than chess I feel while still sharing some elements, like strategy and openings.
