Nah the npcs def just NPCs . They don’t act the way Bada does unless interacted with properly as shown when Bada phrased his wordings the way songchan did in order to get the npc to follow his orders in front of the camera.
Or, they were broken...they can only respond to certain dialogue they remember?
i think this!! i feel like all the people in this have a set dialogue when they're “broken” broken as in not being an active player in the game (not having a running casette) that perhaps their dialogue is restricted to their first life’s dialogue. thats why it even seems like the “playable characters” are npc because they literally are at the moment when their casettes arent running. yfm?
I wish that they could experiement with another person they think is an npc like they did with bada
I feel you, man. I think the same thing. This story is so good. I love the plot a lot.
I'm totally convinced that the NPCs aren't actually NPCs, either they're players who decided not to play anymore or they're like Bada who gained consciousness like him.
