UPDATE !

hello again!!
i know i've been MIA (save for like a single bot in february) but i've been busy with class and irl stuff !
So so sorry if you've tried to contact me over Discord!! I might check that account eventually 😭😭

Anyway, what's new?

When (and or if) I make new bots, I'm going to set them up to be more for use with Deepseek!

Why?
> In my opinion, it feels like a free version of OpenAI. It's descriptive, it thinks about how a character should respond based on the description details, and yes, it can be clunky... But so can OpenAI and JLLM.
> With JLLM (and OpenAI), I struggle with my dead dove bots not ever wanting to inflict violence, be cruel, or write horror despite me really pushing it and peeking at other bots for guidance. Deepseek is willing to write it. I'm going to try and revisit characters to edit them more accordingly for proxy.
> I also prefer that it actually pays attention to detail and doesn't make all your characters automatically tall or small 😭

There's issues with it, but that's true of JLLM and OpenAI also. If you're broke and like long-term, well-written roleplay with the bots, then I recommend trying it.

How?
> First, go to this Reddit thread on how to set it up! Again, completely free and easy to set up.
> After that, I went to this guide on how to fine tune Deepseek (plus advanced prompts!)

What's Next?
> I've been swamped with college and transferring, so I've been unresponsive and slow across the board. I can't say with much certainty that many bots will get made.
> BUT I do know I want to edit some bots (as said before), and make new ones as I continue to get into new stuff. writers block sucks 😔

anyway i end this update by saying.. go play scarlet hollow please please please. the demo is free and its the entire first chapter. very very good very good characters. i love a good horror visual novel that's got romance too and i will probably be making bots for them
