MANIFOLD
Will there be at least 5 video games with at least 50 NPCs each who are interactive simulacra in the sense of the paper?

Resolved
NO

  1. By Aug 15, 2024.

  2. The NPC behavior and speech should be driven by LLM

  3. They have memory and planning, able to make plans at least as long as several days in advance, or some equivalent if there is no explicit "day" in the game.

  4. They can engage in unscripted conversation with each other and with the player.

  5. The NPCs continue to act in the game world regardless of player distance or whether players are logged in or not.

    I will bet in the market. I think there is >90% chance this does not happen, not because it is technically impossible, but because it is simply too expensive.

Thanks to the moderator for resolving. But also, when I did log in, I was unable to locate the market (probably because it was resolved.)

I will resolve this NO on August 16 (or soon after that if I forget to log in) unless persuasive evidence in favor of the opposite is presented in the comments. As far as I can tell there are still zero such games.

I think it's time to resolve NO 🙂

@mods

If remove the last condition (> regardless of player online) and allow to install this "game" on the mobile devices, the game execution may be done on the player devices, so it will not be expensive to run it.

Please share, I you know at least a single such game in open access.
