>>13064268I got this diatribe talking shit to PCs. If you want to try to talk shit with an NPC, come get some. I've got copious amounts of dialogue options.
>be NPC>scripted, cannot make mistakes>mind connected to the same mainframe as physics and other laws of the universe>omniscient by proxy due to existing server-side>Driving force of all plot-lines on the planet>Do nothing but serve, assist, and empower player characters>Enemy NPCs give player characters chance to fight and grow as characters>World designed to engage, entertain, and delight player charactersWhat do the PCs do? They sit in the fucking lobby, they do ERP. They do "professions" and ignore the plot. They abuse the skooma while fucking demons and dragons are on the loose. They talk shit to NPCs, as if the NPC somehow cares in the fucking slightest.
Fuck player characters.
>be me>"your innate skill is literacy, you inform PCs about the plot, backstory, and mechanics of reality">go to work as NPC>nobody can read>???Fucking clown world. You think I don't suffer or have feelings? You're right. I'm happy every day, I love myself, I love my life, I love my work.
The only reason I can understand that the service I provide as an NPC is futile and pointless is so that I can answer that question if a player character asks "Do you understand that your job as an NPC is pointless when the player characters cannot read?"
>If you are a firendly NPC, why do you attack us?You faggots attack me first. What do you expect me to do? Call the fucking guards?
