[ SLANG ][ STATUS ][ NOUN ]
Responses so scripted and predictable they sound like a background character's three stock lines looping on repeat, used to call out low-effort or automatic replies.
REAL-WORLD EXAMPLE
"Every comment on that post is npc dialogue — 'fire', 'W', 'no cap', repeat."
LORE & ORIGIN
Extension of 'npc' from a static insult into commentary on entire conversation patterns that feel pre-written.
