Hey folks, this is Aiming4Gaming, and today I'll show you how I tested ChatGPT in Valheim!
TL;DR
If you prefer watching video instead of reading – !
For those who like reading text – it's right below!
What is ChatGPT?
First of all, let's understand what ChatGPT is and how to challenge it!
ChatGPT is a powerful neural network capable of writing gaming scenarios in several seconds.
But this is booooring.
Instead, I will let ChatGPT choose my fate right in the game itself!
Food, supplies, weapons, boss tactics, even building decisions – all will be up to ChatGPT, my task is to ask. Then I shorten his answers into several phrases to simplify reading and used my own AI (I call him "Artificial Intelligence Mate", or simply AIM) to give answers verbally!
Surprisingly, because of its answers, it all turned into guide of some sort… And in my run I used my own AI to 🙄 So, let's begin!
Initial resources
The first things AIM suggested me to gather were wood, stone, food, leather scraps, resin.
But I found Raspberry first – and he explained me how to eat it!
Then I asked how much wood I should get to build a base. He said that I need 100-200. Hm, okay…
Meeting my first enemy
Of course, it was Greyling. It always was… ChatGPT is peaceful AI, so he suggested to run away!
But Once I said that fight is inevitable – suggested me to craft a club and deal with him.
And, once I found another Greyling, he suggested to repeat his previous suggestion! 😇
AIM was protecting me from mistakes
I tested his logic by saying that I have several trees above me, and asking whether I should cut the last one.
He said that it's a bad idea! xD
Then I visited the Black Forest at night – he said that it's better to go home instead, nice!
Tactics against enemies
I asked AIM about tactics other than using a bow, and specified that I'm hunting deer. He had several ideas:
- Traps
- Using terrain
- Sneaking
- Bringing a friend
That's… Impressive!
Choosing my base idea
I asked AIM about base that might interest my subscribers:
First he proposed a longhouse. I declined.
Then he proposed a castle. I declined.
Finally, he proposed a tree house because it is high and tricky to build. Well, sounds like a plan!
And even once an occasional Greyling visited my base, he asked me to avoid fighting first… What a pieceful AI!
Preparing for boss fights
For some reason, he said that I need 10-15 food pieces of each food to fight Eikthyr. Fine, I should obey…
Moving to a different island
Obviously, I needed a boat. Well, AIM said the same 🙂 But he said Raft, only then Karve…
Fighting bosses
No surprises here. He said that they are weak to fire and that I should avoid melee combat if I can.
Conclusion
With the help of ChatGPT I collected resources and food, picked base design, avoided some mistakes, killed Eikthyr and The Elder, and had a lot of fun! If you want to see the full review – you can !
I think ChatGPT has passed my challenge! But I think I should check him on other games. If you want to stay tuned and don't miss the next episodes – they can be found on my !
Thank you for reading to this point, and see you later!
