Well computers were unable to beat top humans until AlphaGo took on Lee Sedol in March 2016 (I can't believe it was 10 years ago!): that's my basis for saying that Go is not computer friendly.
Human chess is partly about tactics and strategy, but mostly about memory

It was not computer friendly before 2016 but it seems today it is not the case.
