Hello, Achaea adventurers! We're back with some thrilling updates to our Cognition system that are sure to enrich your gameplay even more. Get ready to explore new dimensions of interaction with your in-game denizens!

Also, the cognition chars base packages have been doubled for the price! Cognition packages at www.achaea.com/credits have been updated!

What's New?

NPC Speech Capabilities:
Your NPCs can now talk back! Engage in more dynamic conversations as they respond to players with their unique voices.

Knowledge Pages (KPages):
Equip your NPCs with specialised knowledge about the world or specific topics through KPages. This feature deepens their understanding and responses related to the game's lore and environment. See HELP CONGNITION KPAGES.

Player-Specific Conversation History:
NPCs can be set to remember past interactions with specific players, adding a personalised touch to every encounter. NPC's will also remember if they have been attacked or killed by a player in the past, which will modify their responses.

NPC-to-Player Interactions:
Set your NPCs to interact with other players. You can also allocate a budget for these interactions, giving you control over the amount of chars you will spend on this.

Room-Entry Responses: Make your NPC denizens more lifelike!
Set them to greet or react to players entering a room - perfect for your housing servants (coming soon) and other interactive NPCs.

Why You'll Love These Updates:
- Experience richer, more immersive interactions with NPCs who can now converse and remember past dialogues.

- Customise your NPCs with KPages to make them more knowledgeable and integrated into the game's world.

- Enjoy a more dynamic and interactive game environment with NPCs responding to player movements and actions.

- Personalise your gameplay with NPCs that can engage differently with each player, adding a unique layer to your gaming experience.


Get started with the new features by reading HELP COGNITION!

We also have Ullf in the Brass Lantern Inn if you want to chat with him and test this with a talking enabled denizen! Please note, he does have some char budget protection in place so you might come up against some response limitation if you try to spam him too much!

We can't wait for you to dive into these new features and see how they transform your experience in Achaea. As always, we're committed to enhancing your adventures while upholding responsible AI practices.

Happy gaming, and here's to creating even more incredible stories in Achaea!
