Exactly why I don't play multiplayer outaide of friends only sessions. (with rare exceptions)
I want to explore the game, not just insta-loose, unless I spend 100 hours learning meta and copying first 20 minutes of each game with autistic precision.
I think chess is best comparison. If You offer to switch location of 2 figures, casual players will accept it, because the essence of the game is the same.
But when you offer it to a tryhard, they start raging, because it nullifies their 2000 hours on learning each combination.
@MercurialBlack >there’s chess 960 where the whole thing is that the positions of the starting pieces arw randomized so you can’t rely on opening memorization. But yeah point still stands.
Um sweaty, the proper name of that is Fischerandom chess. 😏

I am starting to get a strange feeling that you like chess a lot more, then I expected when writing my original remark...
Chess is only memorisation in the first few moves, the strategy and tactics can be incredible, but that opening theory isn't interesting to learn, although losing the people I played with probably played a much larger role in losing interest
@LukeAlmighty Oh no, I’m not that into chess. It’s mostly memorization and that is something I’m severely lacking in. I did tinker with some chess engines, though, as part of game theory courses in university.
