If you want it to be good, it will still take hard work. Your own training data, your own ideas, your own work. There's no way to do anything worthwhile with an LLM that takes no work or thought.
This. AIs are basically garbage in, garbage out systems. More general an AI system harder it will be tailor to a specific game. That means companies will need their own training data to supplement it. AI is not “plug anywhere, do anything” type of a solution.
I think the best use for it I've heard is to make unnamed generic characters sound like more than 3 voice actors greeting you with the same 20 or so lines.
My cousin's out fighting dragons, and what do I get? Guard duty.
Imagine now NPCs in gaming being bound to always being online and a company can choose to turn the cloud computing off for the npcs making the game unplayable after like a year, can't wait /s
I'm sure a company will start offering ai models for this kind of thing.
I'm less experienced with LLM, but with stable diffusion you can have a main model, and then have smaller detail specific models added in to shape the results. So I would imagine a company will start offering a service where they have base language models with certain amounts of general knowledge/styles of speech, and can mix in smaller models trained on the lore of the world, character's individual history, and things like that.
From the videos of Skyrim AI mods I’ve seen, I don’t think it’s that far off. At least for your basic, run-of-the-mill NPCs. They’re already able to know if you take off all your clothes and will ask you stuff like “hey we don’t allow that in here” or “you must be cold”.
We can’t be that far off from a truly immersive RPG game

And they can react to in-game state as well
If every action produces logs and the logs are given to every npc along with some flags, suddenly,
Just punched a guard? That goes in the context
Player is rich? That's in the context
Wearing mage clothes? Context
It's a cool way to increase immersion for not much effort without breaking anything in a traditional game

They'll require a persistent online connection for cloud compute.

Let's not give them any ideas or they might actually do it!

That seems bound to loose them money if they don't charge a subscription.

They're salivating at the idea of making you pay a subscription for this.

How much processing power is really necessary? I can run any 7B model pretty fast with my 1660 ti

Don't vanilla skyrim NPCs detect when you've taken your clothes off? I remember Morrowind NPCs shunning you if you were diseased.

Oh dear, I guess game companies will just have to keep paying people instead of finding yet another way to min/max their greed stat.
