[I used to be an adventurer like you Intensifies]

Not necessarily true. In plenty of games NPC’s exist to supply players with things they could do themselves but as a gameplay mechanic aren’t that fun. So I’m exchange for usually game currency, they will do it for you. But- are either of you NPC’s, or maybe you’re each both at once? Somewhere right now someone is playing some app game or cooking mamma type game. They are the main character and are making or delivering or serving Food. Someone else is playing a game like pa rappa where they need to deliver a pizza and not get pulled over, while someone plays a game where they are a police officer pulling over cars- including speeding delivery people. Someone else is playing a game where they are ordering food to restore health etc. so maybe they are each the player in their game and the NPC in someone else’s.
