Chesscom's new Game review, what the heck happened?

wtf is this? [i find no analysis at all - just a replay with damn bot comments... no lines, no best three moves... nothing that can call itself analysis at all. thats just like a review for a three year old but nothing that can call itself analysis... thats just a downgrade of chesscom off 300 %...]

ok, rewind - small hidden button self analysis... still don't see any improvements... still lets say felt 200% worse than before... i don't feel any intuitive thing to do in the main "analysis"... and why hide the real one behind a small button?... hate it....

There was feedback about the tabs taking up too much of the review interface, so the analysis option/button was added as a change.

I would just like to add my tuppence in case anyone important is monitoring this thread - the new game review is significantly less ergonomic and pleasant to use and the old version was vastly preferable.

Since game review is probably the main reason I pay for membership, if the new version is what we can expect going forward there is a high chance I will give up my premium account.

im back to the old one as well. i think the new one is way better formated for mobile.

is there a way to get the new one again..?

This week we got a new game review. How bad is it?

Can you spare a second and we'll discuss the things you missed.

what are ya'll smoking? its been like that since ive been playing for a year. some moves the crappy stock fish coach tells me why and other moves it doesn't. it's just like '' oh this is best move'' its literally been like that forever and i actually think stock fish is a trash engine because it doesn't teach you.

Nothing is identical about the screenshots I posted.

They are identical in function Aetherics don't matter that much.

I'm more interested in the removal of features I wanted, and the addition of a feature I don't want as default (namely, the arrows).

You can turn off Show Best Move in the Analysis settings under Interface > Review

Where is that? Has searched all settings with no success sad.png

It is also very hard to click next or previous moves on Android. Last version it was so much easier to navigate between moves. Please do not fix which is not broken. Bring back the old style.

If you're on a full browser you use the settings icon next to the board.

Hi @peterbago!

Can you give more detail on how you used to navigate between moves and why it's harder on the new Android design? Thanks so much!
