Taking “vacation” this week by only playing the most boring computer games and not thinking about terrifying AI

Hoping this Knives Out sequel also has Go as its central board game... it would be extremely disappointing if Backgammon were instead featured

Not enough board games use a dedicated computer terminal to drive the gameplay, he said ominously

Some games of Go are friendlier than others. LEFT: an exhibition game I played with another streamer RIGHT: an all-out scrap with an internet stranger #SickGoTakedowns #ThatWasASickGoTakedown #weiqi #baduk

Dead stones and territory marked.

Excluding games – what's a piece of software you *like*? Something that gets the job done, but also you enjoy using it. No reason, I'm just interested

They should make a computer game where you start off with a melee weapon, quickly find a pistol, get an underwhelming submachine gun after that, and then a shotgun

He is wrecking the exercise mat but he loves this game so much

I hid a fuzzy ball toy under there and he wants to grab it.

A “snapback” decides the game! If W plays at K9 to capture the marked stone, B plays again at L9 to capture W's group. W resigned here. #SickGoTakedowns #ThatWasASickGoTakedown #SickGoTakedownsForBeginnerGoPlayers #weiqi #baduk

B puts W in atari, forcing the stone's own capture. B will "snap back" to capture W's group by playing in the same spot.
