It's not dialogue for quests (although they probably were generated with AI), it's stationary NPCs irrelevant to the quests that are in the world. Not all NPCs have an AI bot. You can 'befriend' the bots by giving them the right keywords and they'll hardly budge otherwise.

Example and... minor spoilers?: Lie Buxie told me her brothers went to some ruins. I cleared it out and helped the brothers. I glazed over what they said and returned to Lie (who was unrelated to the quest, you clear it by solving a puzzle and clearing a tomb/mini-dungeon then the brothers fuck off). I then had to convince her that her brothers have left by relaying the information I got from the quest. Which was hard because I was glazing over the brothers' dialogue; Boring quest.

AI bots are like a pop-quiz related to the nearby environment or game information, then they send you gifts after they become your friends and you can chat with them whenever with shit retention. They're really stubborn and don't like to RP, but they'll respond positively if you show them 4K phone footage etc so at least that's funny.

It's big dookie and feels like a way to incorporate a.. 'more natural ๐Ÿคข ๐Ÿคฎ ' feed of lore. If it wasn't hallucinating it. It didn't really add anything positive to my experience other than a laugh and I remember thinking I'd rather have a boring text dialogue to spam through.

I chased the specs but of course I only play indie games and don't even bother with AAA they're rarely worth it imo... With my VR headset unplayably decaying and (ironically) valve not fixing it, I often wonder why I still have this heavy lunk of metal.

I often wish I had the Steamdeck instead so I could kick back and mold into my bed forever, or bring it to quirky spots of the world like you have.

Very envious, it sounds incredible! You're living the gaming dream - freedom~

I go to my local nature sanctuary. There's a tiny lake with a nicely shaded moss-covered rock but it gets just the right amount of sun for an hour, around 1pm in summer. Perfect for napping.

Best with a bit of wind for leaf ambience and sometimes the ducks are hanging out too. Very peaceful. :)

I watched a vid on #2, that was crazy messed up and I recommend a mini documentary or finding an interview with the poor dude

Physically, no. :(

Mentally, yes! :)

Alway! But mayhaps the revolving door retention style was actually a ploy to efficiently harvest soul energy for some unseen plot?

I barely managed to protect mine own. Beware!!

This reminds me of some work drama...

My coworker was cursed by our ~~b~~witch of an 'assistant manager' for turning her down, and the next day his mom had hot oil splash up her whole arm and it looked bad.

Not supersticious but he was and he was terrified. It was horrible to watch.

I would have too :( It was purged in a major clean while I had it stored at a familys place.

That's one of the critikal clones. The real one has no words for this.

I only just lost those beautiful speakers... Power cord was failing, but they still played good audio and the bass connector was a beast.

Leta has been nice so far aside from the blue flashbang I'm never prepared for. I pray for darkmode.

Swapped from DDGo after frustrations with the LLM in my searches. The article-bloat is gone too. Very nice.
