Original Note:
In the 90s an NPC was known as a "non-player character" but now is most commonly known as a "non-playable character." The key characteristic isn't the dialogue tree, it's that a player or human isn't at the wheel or someone who hasn't escaped "the matrix." https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?date=all&geo=US&q=Non-Player%20character,Non%20playable%20character&hl=en https://www.nytimes.com/2018/10/16/us/politics/npc-twitter-ban.html
