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

I find myself somewhere in the middle. I think for the vast majority of games this would largely be a negative. Anything heavily story driven this would just cause issues and I think would largely ruin the experience.

I think sandbox games like animal crossing are the exception, if it ever becomes reliable enough to put in anything other than an M rated game.

Animal Crossing, the Sims, Cult of the Lamb, and similar games would infinitely extend the life of the game. But I am sure we can all already imagine the headlines when these "family" games start saying things that they really should not be... especially given recent issues.

For the record, not dismissing the person who did this work. But doing this commercially has its risks.
