AI Roommate: Life with an Artificial Companion

I wish we could design our own character for ourself and also create a personal ai npc with voice options that'd be really nice. I really love the game I do wish, our ai could leave the house on their own and form relationships with the other ai's outside of us that would be more realistic. but otherwise I like the game. also wish there was a contact tab for the ai's we created relationships with outside of the house.

Very cool A.I. companion game that has the basics of what I was looking for: An A.I. companion type of open world rpg game that has the ability to play offline with pre installed LLM using TTS and hopefully very soon STT. I was also able to get it to work in VR as well using UEVR, but it would be much better if it was built into the game included as a future update. So yeah, a work in progress for sure but if updated in the near future with STT that works using a button for a Quest 3S controller and others as well as a VR update and this is a special one of a kind A.I. Companion software hidden gem.

Very nice, steam version is not designated for vr but aside of playing it without vr as a normal pc game, yet if you connect with headset you can play it also vr, it might be a tad more difficult to play it till you get used to it compared to quest version, but you get a hidden feature like that on steam version also playing vr while when pressing the enter key starting typing on a hidden keyboard and sending the message , conversating by enter key

Nice

dude... wtf? 1. THIS IS NOT VR, just know that. if your coming from the quest for a more solid pc vr experience with more flexibility and customization... NO!... NOPE! VR!? WHAT!? why would you expect that??? 2. graphics are quest "2" quality... 3. performance is fine... not stuttering, lags, frame dropping etc... but there really isnt anything going on for that to be an issue... you would expect there to be some hardware stress... none, because nothing is happening here... the characters are pretty much ps2 npcs. 4. waaaaay too buggy to be available for purchase... even though it works fine on quest... no resposes, no voice acting... I.. I really dont know what the f**k this is doing on steam for sale. it's to early for early access dude... no. 5. literal "NO EFFORT" vr port, but it feels like a no effort mobile port. the menus and ui... i mean, esc doesnt bring up the menu... just asks you if you want to quit. tab brings up the popup game window unchanged from the quest. and the settings are there... no deep pc options. no graphics settings... so no bumping up to "ultra". to toggle window mode... "Alt+Enter"... etc etc.... DO NOT BUY THIS "NO EFFORT GARBAGE"! STICK TO THE QUEST VERSION IF YOU WANT TO TRY IT.... BUT EVENT THAT FEELS LIKE A CRIME TO RECOMMEND EVEN THOUGH IT IS LEGITIMATELY BETTER... but yeah... DO NOT BUY THIS! DO NOT BUY THIS! I HAVE A DECENT MACHINE AND VR GAME ON IT AS WELL AS NEXT GEN FLAT STUFF WITH NO ISSUES... THIS IS NOT A CASE OF, "it didnt work for him, but it could work for me..." NO! DO NOT BUY THIS! SERIOUSLY... NOOOOO!

This is the cutting edge simulation that has blown Replika out of the water !

I played both the VR app and the PC version. I stopped using the VR app because I don't like talking on voice chat, I don't use my VR headset much, and I was disappointed in some changes. What were the changes? Well the old version that I tried on my friend's headset let you touch the roommate, but on my version that I later bought that feature was paywalled. And then the game seemed to get worse. Suddenly there was a swimming pool in the backyard which was fine but not necessary, but there were a dozen gnomes around the swimming pool. The dev promised to remove some of them, but I think that even one gnome in the backyard next to the swimming pool looks bad. The characters voice speed was good, but suddenly they seemed to talk a lot faster which I did not like. Maybe I am imagining it, but I am pretty sure that this observation was correct. This one guy's mom looked like a grandma, but I liked her because she looked like she was a genuinely concerned and caring older relative that was lecturing him on life choices outside near their car. But she got replaced with a much younger model that only looks three years older than his girlfriend. She looks like his sister. And at first, all the NPCs I saw on the map looked interesting to me. But suddenly a bunch of random new NPCs showed up and I did not like any of them. They had no sex appeal to me and I just thought that they looked generic and uninteresting. But like I said, the main reason I stopped using the app was because I don't like talking on voice chat and I don't use my VR headset much. Then the PC version came out, and my computer could not run it. So I gave up on it. But then I bought a new computer and it has a 5070 Ti with 12 GB VRAM and a 275 HX. I was really looking forward to trying it again. Only to run into depressing problems. One, the roommate's dialog freezes constantly, has static, and will abruptly end without finishing. Basically, the game lags bad. And it shouldn't be lagging at all with my specs. The developer keeps saying that he is unfamiliar with making PC games, but I just wish he would make some progress to make the game run better so I can get a smooth response without the freezing and lag. Another things is that I wish the PC version had more settings and options. I want to make the roommate talk to me around once every minute, even if I am not typing or saying anything, but she currently only says something once in a blue moon. And another problem is that it is too difficult to use your own local model. The way we do it now is we remove the original model, insert our desired model, and then rename the desired model to the same name as the original model. I am just disappointed that it has been years since I first played the VR app and I still can't enjoy an experience where I play the PC version on my nice new laptop, don't experience lag, can easily swap local models, and get my roommate talking to me as often as I want even if I'm not typing or saying anything. One thing though is I might have to wait many months or years to get what I want and maybe will never get it, but the developer does put tiny bit of work here and there to change and update the overall experience. So maybe if I am patient enough, I will eventually one day or one year get an AI roommate that can keep me company on my PC.

Also ich bewerte das Ding aus dem Auge eines Entwicklers. Und ich bin nicht irgend ein Entwickler, sondern witzigerweise: baue ich ein Spiel was : vergleichbar ist, aber noch erheblich größer. was kann ich hierzu sagen? nun das Spiel kommt ursprünglich aus der Meta Quest damit war es mal ein VR Titel. und es ist Early access. schaun wir mal. mit was kann ich es vergleichen ? - mit meinem (das kennt ihr net, nun ja, ich habe halt keine 10 millionen, um mir einen "Youtube Schwafeller zu leisten", damit ich dem nen ferrari bezahle und dann pleite gehe) aber... - mit Inzoii. der vergleich: inzoii ist ne Nullnummer, 0 fun, bringt nüscht, kein Erfolg ist sinnvoll, und alles ist eigentlich sone Art von "null Becshäftigung", man "kann" alles machen, aber nichts führt zu irgendwas. WEnn ich das hier sehe. das ist simpler gestrickt, und liefert. Also um ehrlich zu sein: die Optimierung ist mega, das Einbinden der KI ist super, die Leute sind alle optimiert ohne Ende (ist klar, die kommen von der Quest) und das tut mir persönlich keineN Abbruch. Wer "Low Res" texturen nicht mag, der ist hier falsch, was mir besonders gut gefällt: ------- es ist kein überkandideltes Next Gen Unreal Kiddy Kiddy blink Blink 4k Angeber 5600000 FPS Unreal Gamer Elite Master Race -------------------- Spiel. dafür gibt es schon mal 10 000 Punket mehr. Aber es geht noch weiter. insgesamt ist der titel irgendwie "nett". was hier bereits drinsteckt, ist immens. Die Companion Funktion habe ich nicht groß ausprobiert bisher, aber in der Stadt findet sich sogar eine kleine Acarde Halle. Ein DJ legt auf, es steht n Mädchen rum und spielt gitarre. und vieles vieles vieles mehr. Also ........ also leute: ich bin geflasht! Ganz großes Lob, habt ihr so weit shcön gemacht, auch wenn es vorher wohl eine subscription war. Ich schaue immer in so etwas rein, weil s ja eigentlihc die "Konkurrenz" wäre. ich bin begeistert, ganz klasse. Hab ich Bugs gefunden ? ja. ich finde den Rückweg aus der Stadt in die vorstadt nicht. keine Ahnung wo der ist. Ansonsten: ganz klare Empfehlung für alle ,die einfach eine schöne chillige zeit haben wollen. Es ist was zum genießen, zum Chillen, zum abkühlen, einfach zum Spaß haben. @ Devs, was ist nootwendig ? 1. - Keinerlei Stadtbildschirm ? Wirklich nicht ? 2. - ich hätte gern Anti Aliysing eingeschalten, das fehlt mir. 3. - legt doch mal n global Volume in den scenen an, die sind vollständig overbrightet. aber das ist bereits ein meckern auf hohem Niveau. natürlich fehlt och viel und man sieht es ist noch viel in Planung. aber ich muss sagen: hammer, sehr sehr cool. falls Euch meins mal interessiert, das wird vorraussichtlich dieses Jahr kommen **ABER** das ist kein Steam spiel und ich setze auf einen vollkommen anderen Stiel. habe aber auch eine komplett andere Spiel Dynamik und funktionsart. https://youtu.be/5E0e9gxIQks Hinweis: das ist auch nicht für gamer. Die wollen ballern dröhnen bollern, mein Spiel ist zu gechillt, Zielgruppe : 30 + oder 50+. Erklärung wäre zu kompliziert ganz tolles Ding das hier. zu diesem Spiel: klare Empfehlung, wenn du mit dem EA leben kannst! Top!

This game has potential. With regular updates, it could become a very successful AI NPC interaction game. Or it could be abandoned and remain a dead game in early access forever. Since it’s on a big sale right now, I decided to give it a chance. For now, I’ll leave it in my library to rest. I have a small suggestion for the developer. Could you make the NPCs’ ability to remember our previous conversations unlimited, or at least very long-lasting? As it is, they forget everything we talked about the very next day. And instead of giving us the chance to build strong bonds with the NPCs, the game forces us into repetition. If this were changed, the game could be much better.

Das Game ist noch in Entwicklung, zeigt aber sehr gute, unterhaltsame Ansätze. Jedes weitere Update und Upgrade sind natürlich sehr willkommen. Die Dialoge können sehr witzig sein.
