I have heard (and I forget the source) that it is advantageous for reviewers to give a new game a good score, otherwise they might not be invited to review early-access games in the future. With that in mind, the best reviews might come after launch.

This isn’t a pip issue though. Either these packages work together and the packaging is wrong, or they don’t work together.

This is my sentiment too.

An RPG that utilizes LLMs to interact with NPCs in meaningful ways.
