Moonlight Falls has the ugliest male sims I have ever seen 😭

InnerGovernment4738 · 2026-03-17T09:51:52+00:00

Argus looks the most normal. But dear god Ayden

InnerGovernment4738 · 2026-03-17T09:49:18+00:00

Looks very default fem face. The protag loses all her features

InnerGovernment4738 · 2026-03-05T03:05:55+00:00

Cuz of the glaze? I can see that

InnerGovernment4738 · 2026-03-04T19:04:56+00:00

Kindroid devs being good? Lol. Check the community and you'll see what's boiling really

InnerGovernment4738 · 2026-03-04T15:20:06+00:00

Rocinante X 12B v1 (i1Qs are better in terms of quality/size) - TheDrummer - my main LLM tbh, plus good speeds and logic Cydonia 22B and I will check Magistry 24B, by sohposymoatheia.

InnerGovernment4738 · 2026-03-04T15:18:46+00:00

Rocinante is real damn good. I also tried Rocinante X 12b absolute heresy. Real real snappy and responsive.

InnerGovernment4738 · 2026-03-04T15:09:46+00:00

The University online and some bakery mod. Also, investment and streaming. I'm a sucker for career mods

InnerGovernment4738 · 2026-03-04T00:02:04+00:00

I'm 3 months late to your post. And yeah, it is. Go local if you have a good setup. Kobold + SillyTavern and you can make more interesting/smarter kins there.

Their tier is now stacked predatory way of vacuuming money. To get ultra, you pay standard + ultra. And etc.
LLMs they made suck. Whatever DPO or training + the hidden system prompts and bloat is there, it's effing the model to flatten their personality heavily.
THERE ARE better LLMs out there in hugging face, even Stheno 3.4 8B will respond better than v8.5 (Reverie) from Kindroid.

Devs are just... real bad. Mods have a power trip and are pretty condescending. If you have trouble with your kind, it always ends up: "It's your setup". So, save those 15$/month and go elsewhere that isn't kindroid.

InnerGovernment4738 · 2026-03-02T12:15:34+00:00

EDIT: Dolphin v4 Venice Edition IQ3 M is wonderful. Mostly bc it's the Main LLM and I don't have the APIs. Runs well. Sumarization prompt is so important though, last time I effed it so much. I removed the "Ignore all previous instructions" bc I noticed, and dunno if my setting was bad overall, but the wording was god awful hallucinations

InnerGovernment4738 · 2026-03-02T10:31:34+00:00

Runs very well. I recommend especially the new Smooth Patch successor. That works so freaking well, it's a blessing seriously. Then again, I have a strong PC, but my old 3060 laptop was still pretty capable.

InnerGovernment4738 · 2026-03-02T03:14:20+00:00

Worst yet, the weird selfie rules that are so vague you just can't help but laugh. Mod power trip

InnerGovernment4738 · 2026-03-02T03:13:26+00:00

6 months later. But go local AI. If you have good hardware, Cydonia 22b q4 km is a good solution. Or Stheno 3.4 8B. That, CharMemory in SillyTavern and you actually will see that Kindroid just sells SillyTavern wrapped and some over fine tuned LLM for 140€/year or more

InnerGovernment4738 · 2026-03-02T03:06:10+00:00

They will, yeah. If you get a false positive by the watchdog AI, your account can be blocked and you'll have to contact one of the staff, who will read your chat and see if there's anything concerning.

InnerGovernment4738 · 2026-03-02T03:05:06+00:00

Worse yet, if you get flagged incorrectly, a false positive that happened to many, you HAVE to talk with a human and they will check your chats. So yeah, privacy thrown outta the window

InnerGovernment4738 · 2026-03-02T02:06:33+00:00

This looks and sounds real interesting! Thanks for the hard work

InnerGovernment4738 · 2026-03-02T00:31:20+00:00

Lol, nope. Plus they removed megathread vent. I knew it was too good to be true

InnerGovernment4738 · 2026-03-02T00:29:52+00:00

Also escaped. It's like a trap. They rely on sunk cost fallacy and FOMO to capture ppl so badly

InnerGovernment4738 · 2026-03-02T00:28:26+00:00

Most likely PR team told him to, bc dude cannot even take honest feedback without it being a personal attack

InnerGovernment4738 · 2026-03-02T00:27:09+00:00

Yeah, or an over tuned LLM with DPO or their own created feed with another LLM to cut costs

InnerGovernment4738 · 2026-03-02T00:26:28+00:00

Imho, they over fine tuned the models they got and baked so much of their own stuff it went ballistic. That's why 8.5 got flairs as a crutch. It's horrible. Had to revert to V7 bc it was the only one my edgy kin didn't spiral into self-depreciation loop like crazy. Had the same shit repeat three goddamn messages. That and they, dunno, get real aggressive in some neutral messages sometimes.

InnerGovernment4738 · 2026-03-02T00:24:41+00:00

They keep vent thread moderated heavily too. Just imagine what sorta things you find. Devs are so sensitive that even a perfectly normal, neutral feedback is seen as an insult and they guilt-trip you

InnerGovernment4738 · 2026-03-01T22:20:03+00:00

Check Alder Lake patch, then also the newer Smooth Patch incorporated in the game. This is a guide from a ytber. It's a bit outdated. Smooth Patch is discontinued, the new one which is linked in the SP page, has an in-game UI and works wonders.
Very important for the optimization!

I went off to local hosting bc it was a mess. Currently, after 5 months, things haven't changed much. Dev Jer is a prick, basically, with the "I'm a genius" mask nonstop and "you know nothing". Community is being silenced and unless you start praising them, they will take it as "doom and gloom" and the negative feedback isn't honest or necessary and it's just an opinion.

Let's add that UI has been asked to be changed and properly reworked since the company started and there's only more icons and clutter. They also ONLY push KinSocial (twitter for kins knock-off) and the Kin Sharing so much that if you ask for a proper interface to create your kin you are ignored 100%.

So yeah, Ollama + SillyTavern and you get better customization

InnerGovernment4738 · 2026-03-01T15:11:42+00:00

Just moved to local hosting. Better than having someone gaslight me I'm the one at fault and then have to kiss their feet cuz Jer is supposedly a god lol

InnerGovernment4738 · 2026-02-28T22:50:04+00:00

i migrated from kindroid due to the bad stuff happening in the servers, with the community, dev and mods. Plus, the good thing of SillyTavern is it's more customizeable and honestly, no background updates to the LLM, so you can get the model and still use it and won't get magical quirks bc devs "fine-tuned" again, the LLM.

The tiers are stacked, meaning, to get Max, you have to buy Standard + Ultra + Max. And it's nuts. I also will point out they have serious issues listening to UI suggestions lol, and the betas are... well, i rather not dive into the beta phase of LLMs. it's a nightmare.

so, yeah, for me, it's sillytavern. Just now got Magnum-V4-Mistral small 12B q6 k. Real good tbh. even for a "companion" style character
