do i actually have to memorise all these chess moves in order to reach a mediocre level ?

[homo_faber]

i basically only know how the figure moves and never was much interested in chess but now im thinking "why not“

what is the best and most time efficient level to increase chess game on a level that isnt total ogre tier?
