Some content simplifies the problems to such a high degree, that this is more a game of "guess what I wanted you to answer" than anything else.

Eg "Your only senior developer knows the entire code. He just asked for a 200% raise or he leaves."

- Pay

- Fire and hire 2 juniors

- Give equity

I chose give equity and it was "wrong" because they turned out to be a "bad founder". How would I even know that? I hired them in the first place right? And 200% of what? Do I have money to pay them? Am I a startup that is able to pay them or is paying going to risk the entire company?

PS: the "right" answer was "hire 2 junior developers" btw

The questions and answers are all LLM-generated. Not even human curated, just dumped on your face straight from LLM. What do you expect? Of course they feel shallow.

This is a case study of why LLM-based NPC dialogue isn't getting huge traction in gamedev world, despite unlimited replayability in theory.
