@thedansimonson @stooovie Reminds me of the parlor walls in Fahrenheit 451. Instead of books, people spend all their time on semi-interactive soap operas where you can talk to the characters.  @thedansimonson I agree to an extent. It probably could be curtailed to react to some events with one or two sentences and not spew too much BS. It's a balancing act as everything but what we have now is either repetition or a game that only the likes of Rockstar can actually produce. |
@stooovie you would think—but think about that for a second. Most bystander NPCs sort of grunt, act confused, or maybe say a comment to you that you’ve heard before. These are all signals that NPC doesn’t have much to add to the progression of the story—it’s an indicator that they’re a leaf on the game tree, not a branch.
Putting all of ChatGPT, its weird sycophancy, its infinite desire to blab—does that add anything to the game? Maybe the first time, but not the fifth.
