      The game doesn’t play like real chess so I’m not sure how well one can learn the rules of chess from it.
      Pieces move with different cooldown times, you never set up the board in the classic configuration, pawns can move in any direction, and other perks that completely change the rules of the game.

      Like, it's truly a talent how amazingly bad he can be at video games sometimes. The only thing that makes it annoying to watch is when Arin starts trying to defend his pride by acting like it's somehow always the video game's fault when there's nothing to do with lag, very rarely anything to do with misinterpreting information, & just flat out ignoring all in game advice given to him.

  • @LinkDawnbringer
    @LinkDawnbringer Год назад

    So just as some information for people who aren't familiar with this game, there are a couple rules that aren't immediately obvious. The first one is the shields by your ammunition, those Shields will protect you two times from doing a move that would leave you vulnerable to being captured on your opponent's turn, however you can choose to ignore those if you believe that shooting will kill the piece that would have killed you. As we saw at the very beginning of this episode however, this will not protect you if you killing a piece is what put you into jeopardy in the first place. The other thing I figured I would bring up feels like it should be somewhat obvious but I've seen multiple people now not realize it: on the left side of the screen when you aren't moused over an enemy piece you can see your stats, which includes how much damage you deal on average, your effective range, your firing arc, and other miscellaneous things that get added to your shots. Trying to fire at enemies outside of your effective range will greatly reduce how much damage you deal.

    I'm not clear on what the shields are for. Sometimes, it's "you can't do that, because you're in check!", and sometimes it just let's you lose.
    Compare 21:52 to 23:52. The first one just kills him even though he has both shields, the second one eats a shield and says "you can't do that".

    It does not matter how hard any game tries to jingle the tutorial keys, nor how absolutely minimal the information on screen is, Arin will ignore it all. It could flash huge red letters on the screen that say "Try double jumping", and Arin would get stuck and get mad because he only read "Try" and then took a wander through his mind palace for a few seconds before returning to our dimension.
