Oracle has a huge pacing problem
I can't for the love of God let my characters have a casual conversation that isn't plot related because Oracle immediately shuts it down. If the characters are walking from a place to another it forces the scene to an end by giving passive/dismissive answers and skipping straight to the destination, if the characters are static it attempts to introduce a "plot twist" to introduce tension, or simply jumps many hours ahead. I have a lot of custom scenario instructions telling the LLM to avoid transitional paragraphs and focus on the immediate action instead, to prioritize character interaction and dialogue over moving forward etc but it's no use, Oracle is obsessed with "The Plot™"
