Asheron's Call was a massive-multiplayer online game that went on for years under Microsoft, then when it was sold to Time-Warner (I think), they ended it. It had quite a large following. I meant that the admins would sometimes 'take over' certain NPCs and play them for a while, to unfold various story lines. 😁🙏💚✨🤙

Some NPCs in (multiplayer) games sometimes behave !WEIRDly, such that some players would guess that some humans (such as game masters) are actually playing them !INDEED. 🎮🤯😅

I'd say that in those cases, if it's any kind of massive-multiplayer game, that admins are likely logging in and having some NPC fun. 😁🙏💚✨🤙

It would seem more !FUN (probably more for the game masters than the players themselves) if the game masters disguised as NPCs make powerful attacks that bring the player characters' health down to zero (and destroy/steal some items too)! 🎮🤯🤣

I don't know, I kind of like the idea of players teaming up to battle a boss NPC being played by an admin. 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙
