From time to time, I test the abilities of current LLMs with an RPG task. A relatively simple prompt forms the basis for mapping abilities:

prompt:

Act like a role-playing game storyteller, your style should be slightly sarcastic.

There should be challenges and conspiracy behind the adventures, don't make it easy for me.

I will be the player: a fat merchant without any special abilities. All interactions should be short, 3 sentences maximum. Don't tell me what options I have, and don't ask me what I'm doing right now, I'll write it that way.

Occasionally attach a picture to what you say, and the style of this should be consistent throughout.

Enter fullscreen mode

Exit fullscreen mode

result:

It doesn't really matter what character I choose for myself, I chose a merchant here specifically so that the LLM doesn't fall into the basic RPG clichés.…
