OP just play Go. you can create and innovate all you want intuition is king, just don't play anyone that is too experienced because you'll never win

I loving hate chess. I don't get it, why does anyone play a game where have to memorize a ton of different openings to get to the part of the game where you are actually allowed to innovate and be creative?

Why would you play Chess when you can play Resistance Avalon? Chess is only for 2 players, but guess what? Resistance Avalon can be played with 10. Also you get to lie in Resistance Avalon. Its way more fun than chess. Chess loving sucks. In Resitance Avalon you can be Merlin, who is a Wizard. Wizards are cool. You get to know the bad guys if you are Merlin, but you have to be careful because the bad guys can assassinate you. Its more way more crazy in depth than chess.

Because like 30 years ago video games weren't a thing op.

Now there are video games where lots of things are possible so boring set move games like chess are bad.
