I kind of feel if you think this then you've approached chess all wrong.

Your moves are all about controlling your opponents influence and responses while developing your pieces before situating for a breakthrough or attack.

Interesting games only really happen with decently skilled opponents who know the theory as well as you. The game often only starts getting interesting after move 16+.

Dubious moves and openings are a surefire way to lose.
