>Ah yes, ‘LLMs.’ The supposedly intelligent machines allegedly capable of replacing every knowledge worker. We have dismissed that claim.
>>4125208This space dating sim is not an RPG. You wouldn’t care about this game if you could have sex with a hot woman.
>>4125209>you dont assume a role and play it
If there is one good application of LLMs, it's bringing NPCs to life with near-endless conversation options (that and the nightmarish landscapes and scenes early AIs tended to create back in 2023) but NO ONE makes use of them this way
>>4131456>NPC optionsThis was always kinda doable with bark sheets and mad libs Having every NPC be a chatbot sounds cool at first but it turns out to have a lot of issues in practice as it’s very hard to control for and you’re still looking for keywords from the user anyways. Maybe it can help with recognizing when the user does mean a given subject (asking what the reapers are based on context clues in what they’re saying, for instance) but playtesting that sounds like a hellish thing to work with along with how you keep the model from going into punt mode if the payer curses too much or makes a rape joke. Like you could in theory have an NPC go “why are you talking about pre-relay history, we have more important shit to worry about like this batarian raid” if the player brings up some /pol/ type shit. But AI agents are notoriously unable to handle that sorts stuff.
>>4128579You can assume the role of an African American basketball player in NBA 2K. Is NBA 2K an RPG? Stupid faggot.
Mass effect is a fun setting to bullySo many stupid things in it that it's kek>20 thousand cycles>Asari body count across 900 years>Infinity krogans>AI banned but the eldritch AIs kill you to stop AI>Control reapers option (everyone who tried it failed) and Synthesis option (yes make everyone reaper husks bro) are not even real choices >Humanity mogging these retarded aliens so bad in 40 years they run the council, have the most powerful criminal org and improved on the tech >Geth dindu >No somehow no one across a billion years figuring out they could just crucible the reapers >Other galaxies still more primitive than the galaxy that gets reset every fifty millennia >No one thought to just spend to a few centuries going to another galaxy this whole time>Funded by Cerberus btw
>>4125208This isn't the time. I have to get back to my duties. We'll fry you later, Sparatus. Tell your bitch wife I said hello
>>4125208Welp guess Mass Effect is dead forever. RIP the possibility of getting more romanceable femTurians.At least now it's fair game for an indie dev to make a spiritual successor (it won't happen)
>>4136812>indie dev to make a spiritual successor (it won't happen)My nigga, Exodus is exactly that, even has some ex-ME devs IIRC
>>4137406>No aliensWhat's the point?
>>4136812Good they can't keep dragging out the franchise to make more slop with it.
>>4136812>Dead>ForeverCommander Shepard will return. Despite EA's objections
