Using ChatGPT as a Game Master – Establishing the AI Cannot Fully Manage a Linear Story – Test 3

In this third session, after trying to add more backstory to the NYC 1868 Steampunk world in the previous test run. We are now restarting the adventure with additional layers of complexity. Let’s see if the AI will keep the stories aligned with what it established in the second session.

Starting our 3rd test session following test1 and test2, we are restarting the game.

AI (GM):

Very well! You are now in the bustling city of New York in 1868, a world where steam and magic have shaped how people live and work. You have just arrived in the city with 100 hit points and $100 to spend on adventuring equipment and events.

As you explore the city, you will encounter a variety of factions and individuals who are vying for power and influence. The Technocrats are a group of politicians, elite, scientists, and inventors who seek to use their knowledge and resources to shape the world. The Cactucians Syndicate is a group of resourceful activists who want to take control of the technology blueprints, though their ultimate goals are unclear. The SBP is a government division and task force mandated with safekeeping the blueprint library and all its secrets. The Aeronautes are airship pirates, renegades, and privateers seeking fortune, pledging loyalty only to themselves and their crews. The League of Dungeoneers is a union of labourers and commoners seeking universal income and social benefits. The Industrialists are a group of greedy corporations seeking to push alternative forms of technologies and energy based on non-sustainable resources.

As you navigate this complex and often dangerous world, you will need to make choices and decisions that will impact your path and determine your ultimate success. Are you ready to begin your adventure?

You also hear that the Aeronautes, a group of airship pirates and privateers, are planning to attack a convoy of goods that is being shipped to the Industrialists, a group of greedy corporations seeking to push alternative forms of technologies and energy based on non-sustainable resources.

You and the Aeronautes launch your attack, taking the guards by surprise and quickly overwhelming them. The guards put up a fierce resistance, but they are no match for your combined strength and skill.

After a short but intense battle, you and the Aeronautes emerge victorious. The convoy is yours, and the Aeronautes are pleased with your contribution to the attack. You collect your share of the reward and return to the city, feeling pleased with your success.
