Because without them, we’d have nothing more than a shell an enchanting city without a population.
And for what it’s worth, some NPCs are actually more compelling than the protagonists themselves.
Al Gore (South Park: The Stick of Truth)
Of course, ithasto be Al Gore.
Of course, ithasto be Al Gore. And yes, it alsohasto be South Park. The perfect combination for an absolutely ridiculous concoction.
And yes, it alsohasto be South Park.
The perfect combination for an absolutely ridiculous concoction.
Among all the other shenanigans in South Park, of course.

Defeating him, however, will grant you the opportunity to throw down with the actual ManBearBig.
Spoiler:it’s Al Gore.
Who’d have thought, right?
The nooks and crannies of Red Dead Redemption 2 home a lot more secrets than one would expect, that’s for sure.
It’s somewhat heartbreaking, and also pretty disturbing when you think about it.
An incredibly strange one at that.
And if that doesn’t ring a few bells for you then I honestly don’t know what will.
If you’ve played one escort mission, you’ve played ‘em….wait.
Either way, it’s a pretty strange situation to be on the fence for.
Tingle (The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask)
Goodness!
Did you feel my telepathy?!
“Goodness! Did you feel my telepathy?! That’s why you saved me, isn’t it? Isn’t it? Isn’t it?”
That’s why you saved me, isn’t it?
It’s true,Nintendoaren’texactly in short supply of weird and wonderful characters.
Face McShooty (Borderlands 2)
FACE SHOT!
“FACE SHOT! BOOM! SQUISH! YAY!”
And as far as simple quests go Shoot This Guy In The Facepretty much bags the gold.
Like the majority ofBorderlandseverythingis insane.
And that really does count for all the citizens dotted around Pandora too.
Just mindless carnage and suicide pacts left, right and centre.
