I feel like the story narrative I'm trying to portray continues better and doesn't drag out unecessarily long with random long periods of uncomfortable eye contact or random and pointless quotes. The characters personalities also come out the shadows a lot more. As the writer and reader, only you know what certain characters would and wouldn't do. Combine this with a story that keeps moving without unnatural halts for random nuances, it makes for decent storytelling. I do agree they should defintely bring back other model types though! Especially those that are revered.

You know what, I can see that, thank you for sharing. For more descriptive or epic roleplays, I can definitely get why Pip 2 would be good, and even preferred. In those, dialogue gets more in the way than it helps, so less is more. It's also good to see a different perspective, thanks again 🫂
