A beta test is planned, and applications for participants are being accepted until [March] 30th.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The article includes a quote from DQX development lead Takashi Anzai, who said of Slimey, &#8220;new players won&#8217;t feel lonely wondering where to start playing; it will become their own personal companion.&#8221; Sankei also quoted Google Cloud global director for games Jack Buser&#8217;s prediction that AI &#8220;will fundamentally change all games in the next three to five years.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>This isn&#8217;t the first time an MMO has toyed around with AI chatbots.
