    This is actually pretty funny- bots are INTENTIONALLY dumbed down in FPSs, because they would be unstoppable, unkillable gods otherwise. An unshackled FPS bot would make a chess bot look like a rank amateur in how hard it would dominate the top tier of professionals compared to the chess bot.

      Especially if the bot could take into account the bullet patterns for the guns. You’d be looking at full-auto cross-map headshots through a keyhole.

        Exactly! If anything, the post could be the other way around, cause against chess bots I can at least get in an opening and maybe a short mid-game before getting destroyed, instead of the instant headshot in fps games

    Chess gets pretty boring because it’s one of those games that can be solved. It’s at its most fun when you have two players of relatively low and equal skill. After that every game kind of boils down to doing the same thing over and over again and you gotta start doing chess variants.

      That’s why I play 5D chess with multiverse time travel. No chance of gaining any significant skill there
