You might’ve heard the fancy term ludonarrative dissonance, which describes something a lot of modern games suffer from. It’s the way games often tell stories that don’t fit within their gameplay loops. How a character can take 20 shots to the head in gameplay, and then die from a single wound in a cutscene. Or how in the story, characters can act like people who would never do the things they do do in gameplay.
This conflict doesn’t actually ruin a game most of the time. But the pictured game is one which is renowned for showcasing what can be done when gameplay is used as a narrative device, reinforcing rather than conflicting with the story. Using every element of a game in concert.

LLMs do do that weird sycophancy thing, but often while getting details wrong.
Yeah, sorry, that reply was put in the wrong place. 🤦
No worries, I appreciate your positivity! Just making a light hearted observation. Probably means I’m spending too much time with LLMs
