Anyone play Aidungeon.io? They hooked GPT-3 up to make a Zork where you can do basically anything and the game will come back with something that's at least interesting.
It's interesting how crazy new tech concepts come in as pure text first. For example, MUDs were the first MMORPGs back in the 90s.
- crtasm 6y agoHas there been any major updates in the last 6months or so? It was a lot of fun to play around with but didn't remember all my earlier decisions so felt pretty inconsistent.
- reaperducer 6y agoMUDs were the first MMORPGs back in the 90s Early 80's via BBSes, online services, and BBS networks like ARBnet. BBS play was slow, but it was so novel and compelling, you didn't care.
- narrator 6y agoThose BBS games back in the day were only 1 or 2 people though because they required one to tie up a phone line to play and most home setups couldn't support more than a few nodes, at least until the 90s.
- reaperducer 6y agoThose BBS games back in the day were only 1 or 2 people Not entirely. Even with phone connections, networks like ARB could do multi-player. But they turn-based, and as I said, took a long time. If you wanted more real-time, you went with something like CI$.
- StanislavPetrov 6y agoCompuserve had a multi-player game called British Legends (also known as MUD 1) in the mid 80s. I very fondly remember paying $6.25 an hour to play at 300 baud. You can still play it here: https://www.british-legends.com/CMS/ https://www.british-legends.com/CMS/
- chongli 6y agoIt’s amusing but it’s not a game. It will respond with something (often amusing) to any promos you write but there aren’t any rules to what you get back and there are no puzzles to solve. Zork, on the other hand, is an actual game you can solve, complete with a scoring system.
- haolez 6y agoI think aidungeon would be very similar to a game if it remembered the past sentences that the player and the AI have input so far. So far, it seems to create a new context from scratch for each and every sentence from the player.
- chongli 6y agoVery similar but still not a game. Games have rules, objectives, victory conditions. This would still be a text-based "walking simulator" or "lucid dream simulator" to put it more accurately.
