I feel like the Vic Viper ship from Gradius should be one of the kings in this set

Thanks for the heads-up on this RedEye9 & Blue!

If you can't beat them join 'em. Having watched Queens Gambit on Netflix and being old myself, I'd be that old dude playing in the park with a mobile phone in hand, asking ChatGPT what my next move should be...

Terminate John Connor.

On the plus side, playing a bit of the Diablo 4 beta today, and the game seems like it's going to be awesome!

I hope you are right.

Time to start heading out to the parks to play chess and grumble about shit.

Look on the bright side, that is an option for you. No parks in this town with people playing chess.

Unfortunately I'm saying that mostly in jest, it was definitely possible where I used to live, not so much now. On the plus side, playing a bit of the Diablo 4 beta today, and the game seems like it's going to be awesome! I'll definitely be getting the game and logging a good 500+ hours easily. Also, not really useful for the actual game, but Blizzard's CGI movie team is still one of the best in the business, I think only Blur studios really gives them a run for their money at this point.

Anyone else find a little lack of consistency for a given difficulty level? Sometimes absurdly easy. Sometimes harder than expected for that level.

I'm wondering how possible it is to mod your own piece sets, board or background. I've got plenty of ideas.

Some of the extras look great on their own but are kind of hard see in actual use. It turns into a bit of a distraction. Others are pretty neat.

Somebody call the home! Grandpa got out unsupervised. Again.

I played two games of regular chess vs the computer on this game yesterday... it's pretty good, viewing angle/size seems a little weird for some reason? To be fair, I didn't fiddle with the default settings at all.

I should get back into chess for real, I am getting too old to play FPS games vs the youngsters reflex wise. Time to start heading out to the parks to play chess and grumble about shit.
