# Remarks
- Roleplay and storywriting are distinct tasks! Some models excel at one and fail at the other.
- Dont waste time on sampler settings; use recommended and optimize the prompt
- Don't "overparameterize" by writing too long a prompt
- Don't underestimate the original instruct models, esp. from mistral
- Don't underestimate classical procedural generation!
