What is NPC Trend on TikTok?
The NPC trend has taken TikTok by storm, rapidly spreading across the platform and gaining popularity among well-known streamers like Kai Cenat and the YouTube star IShowSpeed. NPC stands for Non-Playable Character, referring to computer-generated characters in video games that lack player control.
These characters operate on pre-programmed behavior patterns, leading to less natural movements compared to playable characters. Recently, TikTokers have embraced this NPC-style behavior during their live streams. When they receive donations, such as an ice cream cone or a rose, they purposely respond in a scripted and artificial manner, mirroring the reactions of an NPC character in a video game.
