Default Echo

Echo has been released on GOG and Steam.

Funky third person you-better-not-shoot-her. Why? Because the AI learns from you. As long as you don't open any doors, the AI won't either. Once the AI sees you do enough new things, the lights shut off for a bit (at which time you can do what you want without the AI learning), and the AIs all return with the new abilities. If you've been opening doors, the AI will as well. If you've been gunning them down… good luck. Sounds like they can only know so many things, though, so you can make them forget things by teaching them enough new things.

The extremely-initial reviews (the game just showed up hours ago) are positive.

This reminds me of an older rather horror-themed Star Wars novel : The AI of a starship reacted to what the protagonists did.
