AI Dungeon 2 is a well-known example of such a program, a text-based fantasy simulation. Game modes like FIFA’s Ultimate Team are a practical example of this concept in action. Using text-generating techniques and already-instructed narratives, AI can also construct interactive narratives.

So what we end up with, over time, is a “tradition”, or traditions within a blanket term like “RPG” There are so-called “ARPGs” like Diablo, JRPGs like Final Fantasy, CRPGs like Ultima, tactical RPGs like Fire Emblem, and so on. Over the years, I have loved games in all of these categories.

It was like resetting a little stage-play; the NPC actors hit their marks and reappeared at their start location. So simulationism was born as a way to make fantasy worlds richer, more immersive… in a sense, to “make the ride better.” Not that I coined them, of course; the concepts were very much in the air.
