Alternative to roleplay with popular characters
CharacterAI is becoming too restrictive. I use roleplay during free time to relax. The limits, the absurd ads that are getting longer and longer, the memory... I know there are tons of posts like this, but it's getting hard to sift through them. Here are my criteria:
Reasonable price, if any price at all(under $10-15 a month if its a subscription)
Good, customizable roleplay with decent memory(don't mind all too much if I have to remind minor details occasionally, I've grown used to it but I'm sick of telling the AI key details again and again)
Response length. Building off the previous, I find that the format of CharacterAI and it's short-ish messages(a paragraph or two at most per message) are perfect for me. Huge pages of text are a turn off(even if details are nice).
Plenty of characters from video games or stories, if not the ability to import from Cai.
No ads or disruptions so I can actually enjoy my free time
SFW and NSFW
I'd prefer choices that have been thoroughly tested enough to be personally recommended. I won't be over the moon at self promo, but if you make a good case, I'd be happy to check it out.
Thanks for all recommendations! I appreciate it.
