Atticus Smyth 0 Posted March 7, 2015 #1 Report Share Posted March 7, 2015 This might be a dumb question, but what's the difference between an npc versus a play character that doesn't have an account? Below is what was posted in the player killing status announcement thread. #2 - Killing floor NPC's (shopkeepers, etc..) doesn't count #3 - Killing PC's (fictional players that don't have accounts here) that aren't real does count Link to post Share on other sites
Mari 1 Posted March 7, 2015 #2 Report Share Posted March 7, 2015 a NPC is a NON PLAYER CHARACTER so they are just game data. a PC is a PLAYER CHARACTER; another entire character you develop for the RP :) But for all RP purposes they are another actual player using the software and are stuck in the game. But at your level I would not recommend becoming a PKer. Link to post Share on other sites
Atticus Smyth 0 Posted March 7, 2015 Author #3 Report Share Posted March 7, 2015 At this point in time I don't have any interest in becoming a pk'er, just wanted some clarification. So in other words, you wouldn't have to create another character entirely, in the sense of making another journal? Link to post Share on other sites
Mari 1 Posted March 7, 2015 #4 Report Share Posted March 7, 2015 At this stage no you wouldn't have to. Link to post Share on other sites

Baldur 0 Posted March 7, 2015 #6 Report Share Posted March 7, 2015 Yea, it gets a bit weird in SAO, because you have NPC - a character controlled by the Cardinal System NPC PC - an NPC that is a player trapped in the world just like you, but isn't controlled by an IRL person PC - a player character that is controlled by an IRL player Link to post Share on other sites

The NPC PC thing was what I was getting hung up on. Link to post Share on other sites
