I noticed how instead of being a roleplay model first and foremost, it’s almost like it’s a prompt system that filters things INTO a roleplay script? Like, everyone has rightfully been irritated with it writing for your character, which normally shouldn’t happen… if a model is trained to be for roleplay. It’s usually what happens if you give a regular AI a scenario and ask it “can you generate me a story from this?” and it goes “Absolutely! Would you like me to” or whatever.

There’s tons of patterns I’ve noticed. Beyond the glaringly obvious ChatGPT-isms that reek in every line, there’s also lots of cases where it doesn’t specify descriptions. For example, in a recent chat it said: “The second you join the call (via Discord or Steam chat),”

OR. I dunno maybe I’m nitpicking but doesn’t that seem odd? Plus all the “witty” ChatGPT inserts “(because why would they do that?)” and a bunch of other stuff… this just feels like someone gave ChatGPT a roleplay scenario generator system prompt and called it a day.

Also, if you regenerate the starting message, it almost always speaks in first person and describes things in a way that makes it even more obvious.

There’s also this overall vibe of… I can’t quite describe it… like unseriousness and “haha this is just a joke scenario intended only to elaborate a point or make lighthearted jokes.” I know it sounds kinda cringe to say the AI doesn’t take the role play seriously, but it really feels that way. It feels like ChatGPT making some humorous scenario followed by “would you like me to amp up the humor a bit? make it a bit more moving?” I dunno, it just feels really… forced.

It’s like it both takes it WAY too seriously (everything even slightly vulnerable or dramatic gets overdone and drowned in formulaic melodrama) and not seriously at all at the same time (everything even slightly lighthearted gets amped up to a billion percent and played as a joke)

TL;DR: it reeks of ChatGPT’s whimsically forced, performatively verbose, unserious soap-opera slop and is clearly not a dedicated roleplay model.
