This is a fundamental question and a good one to ask at that. Let's think about what makes someone an NPC, and what it means to be one. An NPC is someone who is determined, not in the sense of being 'determined' to get your homework done, but in the context of determinism. An NPC is someone who is purely aligned with the coding of the world, the information which underlies the constitution of energies and matter, and does not have any higher sense or input which comes from outside the system itself. NPCs and Hylics are seen as similar insofar as they both lack the ability to 'see' through materialism and material reality and sense ethereal things. You might think that an NPC is someone who blindly follows trends, is highly materialistic with an increased interest in weatlh, or someone who lacks critical thinking. The issue with this conception is that someone who can sense etheral things generally is able to fall into those mindsets as well. Think about it, what does having a soul change about posting an inspirational quote, if the intent behind the quote is genuine and in goodwill regardless. It doesn't really make sense to discount the possibility of someone having a soul because they post a quote, now does it. All of this brings me to my next and somewhat final point. An NPC will act pretty much the same as anyone with a soul, but the difference is that they lack consciousness or any form of inner soul. To put it more broadly, they are the machine with no ghost inside of it, whereas those who have souls, are machines with ghosts inside of them. Both machines are capable of the same outward task, but one lacks inner understanding or personhood. Look up the chinese room thought experiment, and you will understand what I mean, if you are confused.

In order to tell an NPC from a non NPC, you can assess their ability to sense certain things. Generally NPCs have aphantasia, or the inability to imagine, but some with souls are genuinely disabled and have this inability too, so it isn't a sure-fire way. Another way to tell, is how they talk about God and spirituality. Is God and their religion just pieces of information to them? Or have they felt God or felt moved internally by God? A lot of this, if you aren't an NPC, can be intuited by interaction. These are some of the tests, but I think more could exist. Usually just talking to someone can tick off the ole' NPC meter.

Really thorough high IQ reply anon. A test I have personally found works without fail is a 'humor check':

If the person's sense of humor is present, but very boring, predictable, and tame, they are NPC. People with completely absent or very good (genuinely funny) humor are never NPCs in my experience. 

Thoughts on this?

It's not that women are incapable, it makes them uncomfortable. Girls just want to have fun.

I have met guys on the spectrum that are so hardwired on organization that they can't understand why others don't think the same way as them. They're intelligent but they can't effectively communicate with most people. They've mostly been machinists, mathematicians, and computer guys. They are humorless. Then I've seen/heard plenty of comedians that are aware of the social aspects of humanity that can effectively communicate their message without the viewer being aware that their opinions are being shaped by the modern court jester. I think that you're onto something but I just rolled out of bed after a weekend bender, I guess I'm just a midwit because I don't fit in either group.

the unsure question means you are not, unless you are programmed to question yourself.

if you broaded your horizon beyond your established set regularily, reexamine yourse4lf and don't ignore cognitive disoncance, you are definetly not.

the other option would be you are an npc programmed to make pc's question themself.

this. its a dangerous situation. and it often throws decent pc's under the bus too when shortsighted egomaniac pc's control the npc's.


i've met a few women who are very aware. non that were single or did not have major issues they were unwilling to confront (unwillingness to confront being the main issue. few things can not be handled).
