chess is burned out

Chess has millions of variations but most are ridiculous, was Fischer right that we need to modify the game? The openings have become tedious and require more memory than talent, maybe fischerschess or a variant is needed. Sometimes I fel like I don't begin to think until move 30 of the Botvinick variachan or such, chess was better in Morphy's time it seems....
