You mean you wouldn't play chess with a skill tree or fog of war? doggirl-smug

Seriously I'd call it a dog-brained take, but that's an insult to dogs.

Chess with fog of war is just stratego

There already is chess with fog of war. It's a fun variant, just not the most popular one.

I just noticed he was comparing chess to reality and not video games. Dude thinks tech trees exist irl. Lasers from space that never existed before are admitted in that very statement to not be part of reality.

He's been out of touch with reality since at least the end of Apartheid.

But I hadn't noticed him mixing real life with videogames. Lmao what a dweeb.

Reality doesn’t have a tech tree 🫨
