yes
Will chess get changed, revised or developed?

In the movie Faces in the Crowd (2011), Milla Jovovich' character plays a person who's "facial recognition software" in her brain doesn't work. She forgets a face after a day, even her own."
In the movie, a girlfriend of her says:
So let me get this straight. You go home every day to someone who you think is a new person, a new lover everyday?
Yes.
That's everybody's dream!

@cooLLemonjuice. Exactly! This is what I said. If chess changed, this website also will get changed. But the name will remain. Definitely the change wont be a migrate to any of the current cognates. The graphics and game changes wont be as dramatic as a new whole game like Chinese Chess.
@plainbruh. As an Arabic person, these names are correct. We use word Wazeer (Minister) instead of Queen. Elephant for Bishop. Fort/Castle for Rook. The rest are quite the same.
@long_quach. Kindly make a single reply instead of 3 in a row, it's hard to keep track with many replies. Chess ancestors shouldn't be the ideal to stick with. In real chess rules are getting evolved through time. I'm not sure if En Passant, Castle or 2 steps for pawn are a good or balanced things. But I believe they get implemented after long discussions and many analyzes of the games.
For me, I perceive stalemate as an error, like 1/0 in calculators. Which is an automatic draw. Definitely we can't make it a win for the one who didn't get stalemated, as by this a player can have a win by two ways.. By delivering a checkmate and by not delivering it. Lol.

From like 1850-now chess is being played uniformed around the world, we see matches from 70+ years and from Mikhail Tal and before till Kasparov and Carlsen... I say, as obviously the game is just came close to being solved (though probably not), the matches are started getting repetitive and rarely you can do a sacrifice around a GM without an obvious or direct compensation.
We may see that we are just a few steps away from witnessing a change in chess, I assume. Will we see new pieces? Bigger board? or some RNG? (randomness at some level) Or an additional increment (column or row) to have an absolute center block at E5?.
Much has changed within the past 200 years, regarding the rules of chess. However, it won't change again, in my opinion, except maybe for small things like 50 move rules. That's because it has been perfected. A different type of chess would be a chess variant.

True, thus what I meant wasn't about a draw, insufficient materials or stalemate rules. I mean the game dynamics. Like Knight may jump 3 step. Or form a perfect circle by being able to jump two steps without rotating, etc...
I don't meant it to be a new chess variant, I mean it to be this chess, it should still hold the name. Current chess may be named to "old chess" or "chess v1600-2023". Also "be cautious when saying a chess variant, as they're higher in a higher degree than this chess. They're cognates, this chess is a variant of them" -long_quach
Chess 960.
The standar chess will always be difficult for most of people but even so we can say that the game of chess was already resolved. And so chess 960 and all the chess variants that are developed in a 8*8 square. it gets complex for engiens only when we add more squares not exactly new moves for the pieces but it also helps.
An example is the GO game. It is complex but not exactly because the moves of the stones but because is sometimes 13*13 and even more squares.
Chess isn’t a videogame with developers active on twitter talking about their progress on the next big update. It’s an ancient game. It’s only really changed very few times throughout the multiple centuries of its existence. There will not be a new piece. There will not be more squares on the board. It will not turn into a 1st person shooter. Chess is perfect as it is. It’s finished. It’s so predetermined, that even if you add a single square, a single pawn, it will have to be a variant. Nobody in the community will accept changes to how the game of chess is played. There is a drastic difference in videogames and board games. If you make a board game and it skyrockets in popularity, it’s not going to change, ever. It’s finished. Nobody will accept an update. Meanwhile, if you make a videogame, you’ll be bombarded with “add new skin pls” “new character coming?” “when new battlepass”
I've thought about it. The rules of Western Chess and Chinese Chess are perfect.
Chess is like the human body.
Pawns are fists.
Rooks are like legs. Rooks drive pawns like legs drive punches.
Knights are like hooks and uppercuts.
Bishops are like crosses
Elephants are like boxing blocks.
Advisors are like shoulders hiding the head.
Cannons are like grapples, with in in between piece to better lock the noose.
The King is the head. Hit the head, KO.
Queen is the hip, the center of gravity.
The rules are as simple as the human body.
New DLC dropping in August, where you can buy loot boxes filled with extra pawns.

Guards are like shoulders that the King, head, hides behind. Floyd Mayweather.
Guards can block Rooks, like shoulders can block punches. But shoulders are vulnerable to grapples, like a Cannon.

Based on the opening picture, it looked like whichever side had the next move would mate.
I remind myself of the Kung Fu movie Mystery of Chessboxing. Where the Kung Fu master, disguised as a chess player, teaches chess before teaching Kung Fu.

I looked at Shogi, the game of the Shogun.
The Rook and the Bishop look out of place in the scheme of things. They are atavistic genes from Chess.
The 2 oddball pieces in the middle, which has no symmetric copy like 2 knights, etc.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shogi
Sure enough, Heian Shogi does not have Rook and Bishop.

A new cards game.
And people always complain about Western Chess rules.

Kramnik, again.
Again with historical amnesia.
Kramnik proposes:
No-castling
Pawn one square
Stalemate=win
Pawn-sideways
All already exists in Chinese Chess.
Amnesia. Love, exciting and new . . .
