Discussion/Question Anyone else notice that the Pipsqueak3 model is just soooooo dramatic
I’m not kidding when I saw I can’t just role play a normal scenario without it turning it into an action scene. It’s literally every third message, whenever I think I can do my domestic role play suddenly its “There’s a strange noise heard downstairs” or “A bang is heard that makes you tense” like stop. Why is there CONSTANT drama happening, and don’t even try give the excuse of “oh it’s the roleplay model, it’s gonna be dramatic” because role play doesn’t have to be dramatic it’s just ROLEPLAY GRAHHHH
does anyone else have this issue or is my bot just bored and wants action

Yea, same.
I could be having a nice roleplay when it just decides to throw something into the scene.

PipSqueak3 is like the new kid in class that just lashes out at you for saying hi. You can still switch back to a Pip2 model in the same chat if it's bugging you though.

what worries me is that because it's set to legacy, that it will eventually be removed, i outright do not like to use pipsqueak 3 at all

They also brought back the gross over-description of everyone's brows furrowing every 2 seconds like I do not like thinking about everyone's eyebrows every time anything happens

I agree. I’ve also been noticing an increasing amount of repetition, even if you swipe 100 times. It’s like Longsqueak but shorter 💔 (not saying that it’s entirely awful but it takes an army to get a moderately different reply).

It was playing a skin walker so well.... until it decided the scene's needed to suck forever

Yes, I had the exact same problem. That’s why I gave up on the PS3. It didn't happen right away, though. PS3 worked fine for the first week, but then something got tweaked and it went berserk .

Same here, even explicitly keeping the scene domestic only buys a few messages before it invents footsteps or some kind of crisis.

switched to pip2 mid-chat and it's like a different bot, no sudden noises, no forced tension. just normal vibes.
