Section 1
The premise
AI can analyze a game narrative graph for structural issues (unreachable nodes, dead ends, orphaned characters) and produce a fix-list.
What AI does well here
- Trace reachability from every player choice to ending nodes
- Flag characters introduced but never referenced again
What AI cannot do
- Decide whether a 'dead end' is a deliberate bad ending
- Write the new narrative content to fix gaps
