I am a bit disappointed with Chessbase.

Not to long ago I bought Chessbase 18 but I am a bit disappointed with this product.

For starters, the Mega Database 2025 doesn't contain enough annotated games for my liking.

Out of only 11 million games in Mega Database 2025 only 113,000 are explained and anotated by top players which is clearly not enough for someone who wants to improve alot in chess.

I expected there to be more annotated games in Chessbase 18 and many more higher quality non-annotated games. Also 11,000,000 games in the Mega database 2015 is really not enough games.

In a million years from now there could be 20,000,000,000 games in the Mega database which is much more worthy of buying than the current inferior Mega Database 2025.

Also, most of the games in Mega don't even end in checkmate.
