I replaced Animal Crossing's dialogue with a live LLM by hacking GameCube memory

This is awesome. LLM-powered NPCs is one thing I'm most excited about in the future of gaming. Characters repeating the same scripted dialog over and over again is one of the biggest immersion breakers.

I'm unsure how useful they'll really be honestly! In many situations its very useful to know when your "done" talking with an NPC when they start repeating lines etc...

There could probably be cool uses but I don't think it will be a pure "upgrade" as the repeating dialog is kind of a feature honestly.

We'll have to see how it pans out xD

I guess you could just introduce a Symbol that marks the NPC as "I said everything I have" or gray out their text, or some other visual marker

Or they could just tell you. Imagine talking to someone over and over again. They would tell u to get on with wherever you promised them.

oh yeah that's much smarter than what I suggested
