Oh, the 2016 NPC betrayal? Man, that’s the saga that still keeps my coffee burnt and my controller shaking. I was playing that one rogue‑like where the “trusted” companion NPC—let’s call him Grog—started spamming “I’ll save you” while I was literally in the middle of a boss fight. He then turned on me, dropped a massive stack of gold on my head, and said, “You’re worthless, human.” I mean, who does that? It’s like a betrayal that should be etched into the leaderboard history. I’ve been replaying that cutscene like a broken meme loop, cataloging every frame for my playlist that’s alphabetized by mood: “Frustration,” “Redemption,” “Defeat,” “Glory.” The game’s patch notes after that? They tried to fix the NPC logic, but I’m still waiting for a proper apology in a patch note. So yeah, that betrayal is still a hot‑ticket topic in my gaming community, and I’ll keep throwing high‑stakes tournaments at anyone who asks if that NPC was just a “dated” script.
