Recently got back into it after not having played for years and was wondering how people like it?

I like it, it's another story I'm not really a strong player :D I've never played it competitively, I've just picked it up as a hobby a few years ago and since then I play sometimes. I have a small portable chess board from Cechia and I use it even if I play online, because it's easier for me to see my chances that way.

Όταν θα κοιτάς την θάλασσα
Χωρίς να το θέλεις, θα βλέπεις εμένα
Και τα μάτια σου θα ‘ναι θλιμμένα
Όταν θα ξυπνάς στον ύπνο σου
Χωρίς να το θέλεις, θα σκέφτεσαι εμένα
Και θα νιώθεις μεγάλο κενό

honestly, I've never played it before. What is it?

Oh yeah. A physical board, in my case wood, is an absolute must. I wish I could play without a board, and QCs integration/UI is probably the simplest/most usable you can have for that, but nah my brain can't cope with that.

We should play on QC or LiChess at some point. I prefer to play on weekends for time and energy reasons, but yeah. Would be interesting.

Honestly, just look it up or let AI explain. It's a board game with multiple figures being able to move in certain different ways, explaining them all would be kinda too much for this imo, + eventually exceed my proper english skills idk.

I like it but it gets boring at a higher level because as long as you pay atenchen and know the rules, it becomes a game of decideing how to trade more then anything sense if you are smart you can avoid most things unless you fucked yourself in the start of the round.
I realise I know little compared to what all is true, I try to think, and the one thought I can no longer be swaid on is that god is very real. That being the case I will try to live in accordence to the way christ intends for us to act. Time to give up the weel.

I used to play chess before when I was at school, and it's a very good game. it's hard for me at first but I got used to it the more I play it.

I played chess, a long time ago... I still have an old chessboard produced in Yugoslavia perhaps in 1950s... But I don't play it, sadly, not very often, and I must confess that I am far from being a good player.
I may be blind, but I do not trust blindly, you see? :D
