"Indian math instructional videos were just directions from space Indians to the Earth colony of India that allowed them to build the space tether that let us return here. The missing ingredient was an Olympic gold medal, apparently. Congrats on that. Allow us to give you the great gifts of our people: Chess 2, anti-British force fields, and the secret to unlocking Bollywood Physics."
Chess is dead, man. It's literally been thousands of years since the last update and the modding community is very small. It's like the devs don't even care to support the game anymore. I think a sequel would be the best way to revitalize the franchise and finally add the battle royale mode we've been all waiting for.
Trump wanted to earn the title of POTUS. He wanted to win as a politician. He won. He did not want to defend democracy. Democracy is defended by the people, not a politician.
I mean the way they got Kasparov’s face to look more and more frustrated as you slowly lose to the computer again in single player is pretty good, though.
This, and every variant of chess everyone in this thread could reasonably conceive has already been done already. There are SO many ways to play chess, most don't even need a special board/pieces like 3d chess would.
I thought I was clever with a few variants and so that got me started down the rabbit hole of chess variants over time. Even my weird ideas had been done 100+ ideas ago.
Just to jump in with something unfunny: Chess has actually had lots of sub games made in the last 100 years. Take the development of speed chess, or Bobby Fischer's Chess 960 where the placement of the backrow pieces are (mostly) random. If you're bored of chess this is a hugely fun way to mix up the game.
I've answered this in other comment, but 5D Chess is more of a spin-off than a sequel. It doesn't progress the main plot and wasn't even made by the same team. Still fun tough.
One of my old roommates and I modded chess a few times. The best version we dubbed "Blitzkrieg" then later "Bloodbath".
It's chess, but each player starts one row forward with the same setup. So there are two rows between opposing pawns and one row behind the key pieces to allow for flanks/retreats.
There's 3-D chess though mate and that was ages ago that came out. Probably on to 6-D maybe even 7-D by now. I'm not into the chess but I reckon that's about where we're at.
Oh, you mean the remastered edition? I enjoy the updated graphics, but it's basically the same plot as the original game. Still, I'm glad they got rid of the problematic elements, like the white always fighting against the black.

Not even people in alien costumes, just get some Mexican people and tell him Spanish is the alien language.
