i’m not sure if any of you have tried using llms before an AI Dungeon Master but its insanely hard to do so if you’re limited to just ONE context window. Even claude opus and chatgpt 5.5 struggle to remember names, races, resources after 50+ messages. The only solution to this problem would be to use multiple calls for the different tasks that come with replying to a single turn, but given how goddamn expensive open ai and anthropic’s apis are, its just not practical at all. However, after seeing how cheap chinese models are (though sadly deepseek is getting a price hike), I wanted to see if it were possible to accomplish a coherent AI DM with these models and if the price were actually reasonable. And to my delight it worked really really well. I’ve been playing it myself for about 2 weeks and even if each turn uses about three calls, my total didn’t even go beyond $2. Mindblowing. And i’d say deepseek’s performance is really excellent, my campaign was more than a thousand turns long and I didn’t notice any memory leaks or hallucinations which is quite satisfactory for me. If any of you are interested in seeing it for yourselves, you can go here , dw its not paid HAHAHAHAHAH the tokens are completely on the house since they’re really cheap anyway. if you do give it a try, feel free to tell me what you think of deepseek’s performance and if it were actually as coherent for you as it was for me. submitted by /u/zacurryy
