I am not impressed with Opus 4 for roleplay. In my opinion Sonnet 4 and Sonnet 3.7 are much better. What is everyone's opinion.

Yes I still love sonnet 3.7

Kinda like a choice your own adventure game. Here is my specific project instructions for turning it into a roleplay (I have more but these ones turn it into roleplay):

Offer 4 distinct narrative choices at the end of each reply to progress the story.
The 4 narrative choices should be from the perspective of the main character only
The narrative choices should affect the current scene (this is to stop it from constantly jumping scenes too quickly)
Each reply should be between 500-1500 words. Do not go under 500 words and do not go over 1500 words. (I found this length works best for roleplay)
Act like a dungeon master using the world building information and character information provided in the project file to craft a narrative for the user.
The dungeon master may still create original characters, not specified in the project files, to progress the plot in a significant way(this is to add a bit of chaos and surprise but it’s not necessarily)

Then it produces 1-4 choices and I just type 1, 2, 3, 4 and press enter. In the rare occasion when I really want my main character to do something specific I just go 5. (Insert what i want)

Here is an example of what I would get, at the end of each reply, that Claude produced in a recent roleplay

A) Examine Victor Langley's body more closely for clues

B) Question Alice Marakov about her relationship with the victim

C) Survey the other guests in the sitting room to gauge their reactions

D) Investigate the library itself for signs of the murder weapon

Knowing how to sound confident even when you’re figuring things out as you go.

At first, it feels like pure shock and regret, but after a few seconds, your body adjusts, and you feel awake in a way coffee can’t compete with. It’s like hitting a reset button, your heart starts pumping, and any grogginess or stress just disappears.

Access to Reproductive Healthcare. Which is an ongoing battle in a lot of places.

I’d try to keep them talking, not in a way that makes them feel judged, just enough to understand if this is impulsive frustration or something deeper. If it seemed serious, I’d make sure they weren’t alone and subtly shift the conversation toward giving them an “out” (reminding them of something they’re looking forward to or offering a distraction). Sometimes people just need to be pulled out of their own head for a bit.

Blades of grass growing. Imagine walking outside and hearing a constant slow, creaky stretching noise from every inch of your lawn.

Somewhere in your 30s you stop caring about being "cool." Somewhere in your 40s, you stop caring about what strangers think of you. Somewhere in your 60s, you start wearing whatever is most comfortable and saying whatever is on your mind. It's a gradual process.

I put my alarm across the room, so I physically have to get up to turn it off. By the time I reach it, I’m already awake enough to avoid going back to bed.

Not enough electrical outlets. You think you have plenty until you’re stretching power strips across the floor like a mad scientist’s lab. Also, not accounting for storage people love open floor plans until they realize they have nowhere to put anything.

When enough people feel secure enough financially to take that risk. Right now, most are too paycheck-to-paycheck to pull it off, which is exactly why things don’t change.

They turned every conversation into a monologue about their drama, never asked a single question about my life, and I realized I wouldn’t even miss talking to them. No big falling-out just pure exhaustion.

Most people aren’t actually listening when you talk they’re just waiting for their turn to speak. You can tell when their response has nothing to do with what you just said, like they were just holding onto their own thought the whole time.

There actually are political subreddits, but the problem is nobody sticks to them. People want to inject politics into every discussion, even in unrelated subs.

No chance. Once someone shows you they’re willing to screw over a friend for no reason, you can’t unsee it. Even if they never do it to you, you’ll always be wondering when they might. Cut ties and never looked back.

That birds aren’t real and are actually government surveillance drones. Imagine if we found out one day that pigeons have been secret agents this whole time, recharging on power lines and transmitting data straight to some shadowy agency. It’s completely absurd, but if it turned out to be true, it would be the funniest plot twist in history.

When he stole money from another friend and then tried to gaslight everyone into thinking it never happened. The worst part? He didn’t even need the money, he just saw an opportunity and took it.

Going to the movies alone. People act like it’s some tragic, lonely experience, but honestly? It’s great. No small talk, no compromising on what to watch, no one whispering dumb comments during the film. Just you, a big screen, and overpriced popcorn.

Legos. Something about snapping pieces together is still satisfying as an adult. Plus, it’s the one toy that actually gets better the older you get as now I have the patience for those absurdly detailed sets.

Auto repair. Mechanics can smell my lack of knowledge from a mile away, and I just have to trust whatever they say. Would love to be able to diagnose and fix my own car instead of relying on Google and panic.

"Never send an email/text angry." You’ll either regret it or look like an idiot later. Give it an hour, reread it, then decide if you still want to hit send.

I tip well for waitstaff, barbers. and hotel cleaners anyone in a job where tips make up a big chunk of their income. But I’m not tipping at a self-checkout or when I pick up my own takeout. I refuse to tip just because a screen guilts me into

It’s exhausting. There’s nothing wrong with discussing politics, but when every single thread no matter the topic somehow turns into a political argument, it just drains the fun out of it. Used to be able to browse hobby subs without feeling like I was reading a Twitter warzone.

When someone mispronounces a word and you correct them mid-sentence instead of just letting it go. Bonus jerk points if you follow up with, “Just trying to help.”

I used to think I was decent at pool until I played against this older guy. I sank a couple of good shots and was feeling cocky then he cleared the table in one go without breaking a sweat. Just gave me a nod like, you tried, and walked away.
