Npc energy (npc stands for "non-player character") is when people act like characters from a
video game, more specifically open world
adventure games. They act like characters that perform actions hard coded
in the game to get the player doing a specific thing.
person 1 - "did you see that guy? he was
going around talking to everyone about goats and kicking the bins"
person 2 - "yeah, thats some strong npc energy"
