There is a relatively new game called Wildermyth that does an amazing job at adaptive storytelling. Would love to see how it works. Maybe they use AI. Who knows!

That sounds interesting. Is it deterministic? That is, can you recreate a game story by making the exact same choices?

Probably yes, but there are A LOT of variables that influence the story (e.g. characters personality).

This sounded interesting to me as well, so I did some digging - the system is deterministic, as far as I can tell, but with lots of hidden and random information: https://wildermyth.com/wiki/index.php?title=Writer%27s_Guide
