    Literally the monkey is the best inclusion in this game. I see how that little chimpanzee will define who wins and lose. Has one of the best gimmicks never seen, he literally can jump only one space or if you are so good playing jump like 5. He is the UNIQUE ONE that rescue the king, at the Little cost of a banana. Personally, I would made that another piece can stole the banana, I dont know, like the elephant or something, to balance a little bit the game. Anyways, the Monkey is perfect, and is a good rival to the bird from egypt. Anyways, you are objectively correct in all.

  • @ydb82
    @ydb82 Год назад +604

    I've been playing this for some time, and it's seriously great. But to enhance it a little, I added 3 little custom rules in regard of the bear, and those are the following:
    1. Bears can only take fish and fish queens. It's a bear, so it should be able to eat the fish, and the fish queens, they cannot take the other way around though, so they spend most of their time avoiding the bear.
    That makes for a scenario where both players want to progress with the players keeping the bear as far away as possible from their fish, thus making more use of the gained movement freedom the fish has.
    2. A bear can only be taken by either an elephant or a queen. This one is just to make players try to redirect their elephants in a way they can get rid of the bear, again, making more space with the now meaningless pawn-walls, as for queens, they are powerful, but now a condition to lose, so one will protect them more, if you truly want to have freedom on the board, maybe a queen should step in. That will open a lot of new possibilities.
    3. Each player takes a turn in moving the bear, with the black player starting. Since white starts moving, black gets the first bear move, to clarify, black will choose 1 of the center squares to lay the bear on, these being: d4, d5, e4 and e5, after choosing the bear's starting square, black will still be able to move a fish. From there on out, moving the bear will cost a turn though. Therefore from there on out players each will try to get the bear on each opposites throat, ruining their structures, open for weaknesses. Getting rid of him when he becomes a nuisance will become a major objective.
    I hope this will help to make a greater experience, if you try that is ^^.

    1: The queen is Uber-powered in this version because everything has become so much weaker.
    2: Strengthen the Elephant by making it to where they can move 2 spaces in any direction, diagonal or orthagonal, and they capture all pieces along their path.
    3: The Rook is weird, but you should really build on the idea of it feeding on dead pieces. Instead of the Rook being able to capture when a piece is captured, instead it can move to a square where a piece died and promote to that piece by "eating it's dead body."
    4: With the pieces you have capturing the Queen will be really difficult. I advise making multiple winstates. First, if the King and Queen are captured. 2nd, if the King is captured twice (has no banana). 3rd, all non-royal pieces are captured.

    I was expecting something worse, but it is actually 400x than the previous chess. I think the reason people weren't able to make this before was because you are right about everything, and it is probably hard for someone that isn't you. The sad thing is that everyone has to buy a new chess set if they are playing in real life. Maybe if you made money 2 that wouldn't be a problem?

    Okay so I tested this out with people and it was actually incredibly interesting. I think it has a lot of potential. Here’s my feedback.
    1. The rook and monkey are awesome. They add a lot of interesting complexity and were very fun to play with. They are pretty much perfect as is. Kings and queens also function pretty well and don't really need any adjusting.
    2. The elephant is extremely weak. They're worse than fish, but unlike fish can't even promote. Each elephant can literally only access 8 squares of the board, with most of those squares often getting blocked off anyways. So, I'd recommend doing something to improve their options. A suggestion I have is to allow them to move horizontally/vertically 1 space, on top of diagonally 2 spaces. It would greatly increase their options, and I think would overall improve the game. Of course, you could do something else too. I just think it needs to have more maneuverability in general.
    3. It takes too long to develop the fish. Allow them to move 2 spaces in the beginning like pawns can in Chess 1.
    4. Just like pawns in Chess 1, I think fish should be also able to promote into any piece, not just queens. Especially with how useful rooks and monkeys can be.
    5. There's very rarely a reason to move the bear, so it mostly does nothing. And then if it does manage to get into play there's also the risk of a situation where both players are just moving the bear back and forth endlessly. I know loops like that aren't new to chess, but I still thought it was especially bad with the bear. The people I played with suggested some changes, such as maybe the bear moves 1 space the first time it's moved, 2 spaces the second time it's moved, 3 spaces the third time, etc. Or maybe allow it move anywhere like the rook does, but just not the same place multiple times.
    Overall, very solid game. I enjoyed it a lot, and with some tweaks it could be pretty darn awesome.

      That was also my first reaction. Games will literally never end, because no unit can ever touch the Queen unless it gets blundered. Capturing a Queen without saccing your own is hard enough in regular chess, and with all the other units being heavily nerfed, it certainly won't get easier.

      I think the rule as stated in the video does have some merit. In Chess 1, it is not uncommon to sacrifice the Queen to gain a positional advantage or help Pawns towards promotion. However, because Fishy Queens are not real Queens, this tactic now comes with a greater risk.

    nobody is talking about how OP the rook is in chess 2 (everyone is talking about monkey). Think about how chess is played. You place pieces to cover other pieces that are covering other peices that if moved will discover other pieces that can be taken out. The fact rook can only attack after a piece is taken means nothing, as you would use a piece that can just apear everywhere on the board defensively by nature anyway.
    Take this super simple example- the enemy moves to a spot that will take your monkey, you only have once turn to save it. Just take your rook from all the way on the other side of the board and fly it to defend that monkey. The rook ALWAYS guarantees a defense.
    Side note- rook goes from the best end game piece (as you can easily box the king for a safe checkmate) to the worst piece, as it literally can't attack with a solo king on the board. In the event the king does take a piece, it can ONLY do so in a place the rook can't kill it, as you can't place yourself in check.

    I would change the elephant so that it can take pieces that are 1 space away. They can take these pieces only if there isn't a piece behind it. They move as they normally do, but they tak the piece 1 space away, as they move. However, if there is a 2nd piece, the elephant is overwhelmed and after taking the first piece, it dies taking the second pieces (it takes both pieces, but dies).

    • @HatterTobias
      @HatterTobias Год назад +15

      The cannon is actually a relatively shit piece, it's value is around 1/2 a Rook, the only reason the cannon looks powerful in Xiangqi is because the other pieces in Xiangqi (except Rook/Chariot) are far weaker than the cannon

    • @FlameQwert
      @FlameQwert Год назад +13

      ​@@HatterTobias good point, I think my overvaluation is because the cannon also has some non-standard value as the ultimate noob trap in xiangqi

    • @Fynmorphover
      @Fynmorphover Год назад +13

      In chess the cannon would be better i think. Xiangqi has elephants and the palace assistants to mitigate cannons which chess does not have (though the King in chess has better movement so maybe that balances it out).
      I dont think the monkey plays at all like the cannon lol, calculating all the places the monkey can attack seems like a nightmare.

    Idea for the elephant: if there's an enemy in between where it's going and where it is, it dashes through the enemy, taking the piece but it still goes all the way to 2 pieces.
