Context:

Façade is an artificial intelligence-based interactive story created in 2005 by Michael Mateas and Andrew Stern.

Façade

The engine does have some quirks, however; for example, saying the word "melon" at any time will result in the player being kicked out immediately, due to the slang term referring to a woman’s breast, despite other meanings not used in a vulgar way.

Is that why the characters are offended? Not because they're being told they can't elope?

I actually really like cantaloupe, but I love Facade more, so I guess I'm upvoting.

Was there a sequel made to Facade? It was really interesting, but my typing speed was slow and I couldn't keep up when I tried it.

Surprised no one has with modern AI, although I guess we have alternative chat based games now.

I'm not convinced a sequel made today would actually be better. Still have no idea how this was made 20 years ago

what a throwback

That looks more like a devil fruit.

More like devil fruits look like Musk Melons, which are popular as a gift in Japan.

[–] Axiochus@lemmy.world 2 points 6 months ago

Didn't think Japan would name a whole melon type after that pompous dick 😒
