I thought about dropping Where winds meet because it didn't scratch that itch I got to test myself in an open world souls like game, then today I learnt that they used a LLM within an in-game character and that completely shattered my interest in the game.

Mind that it's not because they used AI, but because they used it wrongly, just to say "ok, we're using it!"

I can get behind a modern assistant-like entity helping me in a more natural language, if properly trained in the context (well, duh), but I can't condone using an untrained (context-wise) LLM in a historical/wuxia RPG game.
AI isn't bad in some cases. Using it like this? Yeah, it is.

Le sigh.

Wuxia MMO Where Winds Meet is full of AI chatbot NPCs, and people are doing all the standard obscene stuff to them: 'I made him think that my character was pregnant with his child'

Can't we just go back to the Zork school of NPC dialog?
