Artificial Atmospheric Actions	comment	In some games, Non Player Characters do various window-dressing activities in order to make the world seem more alive. However, if the actions are used in inappropriate contexts, or if they are used too frequently, it just highlights their artificiality. At best it's distracting, it's often funny, but at worst it's scary. This trope is a less-discussed function of Video Game A.I.. Frequently has to do with inappropriate Enemy Chatter, and occasionally News Travels Fast or Gang Up on the Human. Occasionally, this can become So Bad, It's Good, although it is likely to be annoying. Related to Welcome to Corneria and Going Through the Motions, and a successor of sorts to Hyperactive Sprite. Nothing to do with oddly-shaped clouds. The player character may occasionally perform atmospheric NPC actions as part of Blending-In Stealth Gameplay.

Artificial Atmospheric Actions / int_1852cbb9	comment	Starbound: NPCs have specific interactions with certain objects, but they will perform these regardless of context. For example, they will warm their hands at a campfire, even if they're on a scorching hot volcanic planet. They also treat every object in a category the same way, so they might go to sleep on a torture bed or use the toilet in full view of everyone (since they are functionally chairs). Villagers will tell you off and summon the guards if you steal too many things from their village. However, this only includes placed objects and blocks, so you're free to ransack their cupboards and steal all their money and weapons without them caring at all. Taking any block within a certain radius of a village counts as "stealing". This includes basic blocks like dirt as well as objects you've placed yourself. So, NPCs will call the guards if you pick up some mud next to their house or put down a crafting station for five seconds, but not if you run off with all their diamonds. Villagers also don't care if you add blocks to their village, only if you take them away. You can seal up all the doors, tip buckets of poison everywhere and cover the town in piles of poop (yes, that's a real item), and they won't bat an eyelid. Volcanic planets occasionally rain fire or meteors which inevitably destroys most structures on them. NPCs don't care in the slightest about this, and will carry on chatting while their houses burn down around their ears. Worse, if you happen to pick up any of the broken blocks afterwards they will accuse you of stealing them, even though you clearly weren't responsible for the damage in any way. Procedurally-generated quests can also have this problem. NPCs may ask you to deliver messages to people standing right next to them, or trade away an object, only to trade for another copy of the same object later in the questline. They also don't take account of context, so an Avian about to be sacrificed may ask you to make them a banana cream doughnut. When gifting an item to someone, NPCs will say "Please give this [item] to [person]. I hope they don't already have one!". This makes sense if the item is a piece of furniture, but not so much if it's an ice cream. NPCs might also give each other some very odd things like sewage barrels. Some quests involve escort missions, where you have to find a lost NPC at a specific landmark and take them home. In rare cases the landmark can generate in sight of the lost person's home village, meaning that they somehow managed to get lost in sight of their village. Doing a lot of quests on one planet can cause too many people to generate at the same landmark. For example, you can get ten merchants all gathered at an abandoned prison. Can't be good for business. Only NPCs of the seven playable races can generate quests but others can be involved in quests. This isn't really intended so they don't have any racial quest dialogue and use the default Human dialogue instead. This can result in some weird interactions, such as one of the mute and nameless Shadow people suddenly being called Dave and speaking in perfect English. NPCs have greeting dialogue, which they say automatically as you approach, and conversation dialogue, which they only say when you talk to them. These are randomly chosen from a pool and don't always match up. For example, a guard may warn you to behave or else, but then gush about how wonderful it is to meet you straight afterwards. Mercenaries use generic dialogue from the same pool as villagers, which can result in a tough guy in armour worriedly asking if you're going to eat him or telling you about the bad dream he had last night. NPCs have specific quotes for when they're attacked, but they don't distinguish between being attacked by a hostile NPC and a monster. A Floran villager might say "Floran will tell greenfinger on you!" when attacked by a monster, which is the equivalent of threatening to tell the teacher on a wild animal. NPCs might also ask "What did I do?" which doesn't make sense for most encounters. You don't need to "do" anything for bandits to try and rob you.

Artificial Atmospheric Actions / int_1955de30	comment	In LEGO Marvel Super Heroes, the civilians have some random dialogue they can say; some are programmed to only happen when they see a specific character (e.g. you won't hear "It's what's-his-name, the metal man!" unless your player character is, in fact, Iron Man). Some are, however, not. Combined with an epic aversion of No Campaign for the Wicked and the fact that some villains are the only or most obvious choice for solving certain puzzles, and you may well hear "Look Timmy, it's that hero you like" or even receive congratulations for saving the world...when you're Magneto, Doom or Loki.

Artificial Atmospheric Actions / int_26a33287	comment	Mount & Blade: The game has moments where you're allowed to enter villages and towns. There are villagers wandering around, but none of them ever do anything other than wander, and all you can talk to any of them about is the town you're in, which all of them have the exact same knowledge and opinion on. They never talk to eachother, but it sort of works as long as you're not in the villages for too long. You can also see travelling villagers moving between towns on the world map, and you can even attack them. Mods can compound the silliness. For example, there is a star wars mod for the original mount and blade. Said mod adds bounty hunters to towns who will randomly attack you which works pretty well, except that nobody else on the map responds to it on the slightest. Including the guards. Even if you own that planet. It also adds bar fights, which are still very amusing as the bartender cannot jump over the bar to actually join the fight (but will keep trying) and the fact that an unarmed rodian will decide to try to take on a wookie or fully armored bounty hunter.

Notably, in the first film, Neo sees a black cat walking past, turns away, looks back and sees the same black cat walking past, making the same movements. DÃ©jÃ vu in The Matrix usually happens when the Machines change something; therefore, when Neo mentions it, Trinity has an Oh, Crap! moment.

Artificial Atmospheric Actions / int_2dfb1427	comment	In Baldur's Gate and the other Infinity engine games: Certain NPCs are programmed to leave the area after conversing with the PC. This is typically done by having them walk to the nearest area transition and zone out — even if this is a locked door or somebody else's house. When there isn't an exit close enough, the NPC will simply dematerialize. There's also a problem with Anomen - his battle cry is an impassioned 'For the Order!'... even if in your game, he failed his test, renounced the Order and blames them for everything bad that happened in his life. The things people say when you click on them can have this effect too - Solaufein's generic Drow 'Do not question the Matron Mothers' starts to sound very sarcastic by the end of that storyline. Planescape: Torment (which uses the same Game Engine) has a quest to retrieve an item from a shop the quest giver has been barred from. Because the door closest to him is said shop, he tends to walk into the shop he can't go in!

Artificial Atmospheric Actions / int_30c1ffd0	comment	Stardew Valley: This is generally averted during conversation, with characters' dialogue changing based on your relationship with them and with other characters, the time of year, the weather, upcoming festivals, what items you've sold to the shop, and more. However, most characters only have one line of dialogue for each festival, which is usually friendly towards you. This means that characters that take a while to warm up to you like Shane, Haley, Sebastian and Linus suddenly act like you're their best friend for that day only. The same applies when giving gifts, as characters will always respond enthusiastically to a loved or liked gift regardless of whether they know or like you. Each character has a schedule which dictates where they have to be at different times. However, if you study these schedules, what the characters are doing doesn't seem to make an awful lot of sense. For example, on Fridays in Spring, Mayor Lewis will spend seven and a half consecutive hours standing by a fountain. Suddenly the decay of the community centre seems to make a lot more sense... It's especially infuriating if the character runs a shop, as there's really no reason for Marnie to refuse to sell you animal feed because she's too busy staring at a microwave for hours. The player's first encounter with Krobus is meant to be during a quest that triggers in Winter. In this quest, he will be afraid and run away from the player. It's possible to befriend Krobus before Winter even starts, yet he will still act as if the player is a stranger during the quest.

Artificial Atmospheric Actions / int_33dd1d8f	comment	Half-Life: The game is famous for its bizarre, probably batshit insane NPCs that could seemingly only say things that were massively inappropriate for the situation. Half-Life 2 mostly averts this by virtue of simply having them not talk most of the time, but will occasionally still provide some real gems. NPC conversations were generated by having one NPC randomly pick from the list of "generic comments" and then another NPC randomly picking from the list of "generic replies", with no relationship between the two. There were a fair amount of both initial comments and replies, and sometimes it seemed like a pretty natural conversation. Other times, you ended up with "Sometimes... I dream of cheese." "Man, if I had a nickel for every time I've heard that..." This is not helped by the relatively small size of the voice cast; a good fifty percent of the time you wind up hearing John Patrick Lowrie talking to himself. During scenes in which the NPCs are apparently talking to Gordon Freeman, no matter what the player decides to have him do, they continue to talk to him as if he's standing right there. This gets rather weird or amusing when the player decides to have Gordon run around the room, check out the walls, or try to write words in the wall with bulletholes and then they're just talking about what Freeman should do next.

It also means that the ones that look weird (one shambling along like a zombie, or another in highly impractical high heels) stand out a lot more.

It is a known fact that all auto manufacturers install a bolt that keeps the accelerator at 50 miles an hour, no matter where the car is going. In general, when an emergency vehicle goes down the road, the cars just careen out of the way on to the side walk like a giant laser beam was heading down the road. Coupled with Artificial Stupidity, the Sims you can place to live in the city just have odd habits and things that make you go "why would you do that?". The most jarring show cases the problem of the default path-finding algorithm, where a Sim can't find his/her place of work... when it's across the intersection. In the previous game, Sim City 3000, the freight trains would actually stop and wait for the automobile traffic.

Oblivion NPCs also have daily schedules, complete with eating and sleeping animations. Taverns at dinner time, for instance, usually have at least half a dozen NPCs sitting down and eating. Okay, and having ridiculous conversations with each other. One early demo for Oblivion showed that the much-touted Radiant AI is capable of organic problem solving, even if its solutions are a little... non-traditional. An NPC was awoken by the barking of her dog. Her response was to get up, fireball the poor pooch to death, then return to bed. There was a similar problem with a pair of NPCs each given commands to perform tasks that the other was equipped for (hoeing and raking). Cue the epic battle to the death to get the rake or the hoe, instead of, y'know, swapping. The bug where they hadn't prevented guards being arrested by other guards, so that a guard committing a crime in the course of pursuing a criminal was attacked by another guard, who was then flagged for attacking the guard, whereupon the townspeople attacked the crazy guy attacking a guard... except they all got flagged as having attacked the guard... you can see where this ends. There was the dear lady raking her carpet. Although certain characters are scripted to be jerks, that is to respond to NPC conversation with mean or uncaring responses, other characters will not respond appropriately. The result was dialog along the lines of... NPCs also fail to realize who they are talking to. Resulting in some... weird exchanges: After turning in the evidence for the corrupt guard quest in Cheydinhal The script also often does not let them know who they are, resulting in them talking about themselves in the third person. There's one bug where people start talking about how Amantius Allectus was killed in a burglary, even if Amantius is still alive. This becomes absurd when the one saying this is Amantius Allectus. He got better, apparently. There's a glitch in Cheydinhal that results in the Captain of the Guard saying "I don't know you, and I don't care to know you" over and over and over. Thing is, he only does this to one of his own guardsmen. Guards will automatically attack and kill NPCs who are attacking the player, but they also have a script for when they find dead bodies in the street. This can result in them cutting a person down, turning to walk away, turning back around, and gasping at the corpse, "Oh my goodness! Are you all right?" Even better: if the townspeople aid you (often with... just their fists...) in fighting off an attacker revealed in (or led into) town, a guardsman might accidentally hit one with an arrow. Said towner will interpret this as a hostile attack and retaliate by fighting the guard. The guard is inevitably stronger, and cuts her down. And since she was an innocent... the guard will lean down, check her neck for a pulse: "... the body is still warm... there's a MURDERER on the loose!"... and proceed to walk away without even deigning to hide the body. After a certain point in the Fighter's Guild questline, the Master of the Guild becomes very angry with you after you get involved in a mistake that led to the death of her son. During quest updates, she is furious with you and commands you to never speak to her again. But if she isn't part of any of your current quests, she's perfectly friendly with you. Quill-Weave (yes, that one) becomes furious at you and will insult you every time you try to speak to her if you take one option in a quest she's involved with. She will, however, still train you in Acrobatics without further mark-up or hesitation. Animals in Oblivion seem to have it in for you, very rarely they can be seen going after actual prey. This gets pretty immersion breaking when you get to a high level and just want to walk down the road, but your walking armored death machine has to stop and swat away pathetically weak lone wolfs and mountain lions every 40-50 feet. Or bandits that demand you give them "100 gold or your life", despite carrying around weapons and armor worth roughly 10,000-30,000 gold. If you complete the main questline, new conversation topics will activate, including one of a guy (badly) singing part of an epic about your character. This becomes amusing if you happen to overhear a bandit singing your praises, who will nevertheless attack you with murderous intent on sight. One of the biggest flaws in the AI of Oblivion NPCs is that most of them don't react to seeing a dead body in any way, and those that do will simply lean down and check the pulse, rarely comment on it, and then go back to ignoring it completely. This can lead to some surreal experiences if you have a high sneak skill or invisibility spell, such as cutting down a bandit with a backstab, then backstabbing the next bandit that calmly walks over and leans down to check the corpse, and then the next bandit after that, etc ... until every bandit in the room is lying dead in a pile.

Artificial Atmospheric Actions / int_49ad83ee	comment	Quite annoying with the predator mobs in World of Warcraft. If a critter (rabbit, deer, etc.) strays too close to a predator (lion, tiger, etc.), the predator will rush over and kill them in one blow. Or sometimes they'll stalk them for a while before killing them. But then the predator just turns around and continues walking lazily along. This switches the predators from natural hunters who eat what they kill to psychopathic murderers intent on the eradication of all lesser lifeforms. It would be far better if the predator just dropped onto his chest and started chowing down on the body (bloodlessly, of course). The game has instances of random chatter. Some NPCs even talk about a random character near them if they meet a specific criteria. And the human starting zone had the worker unit from Warcraft 3 walking around, complete with the original voiceset. So did the orc/troll starting zone, but those were involved in a quest. There was subtle, albeit noticeable improvement in creature interactions in the "Wrath of the Lich King" expansion and following: wolves actually go through eating motions near carcasses, bears fish in the rivers and emerge with actual fish in their mouths, rams head-butting each other, tickbirds ride on rhinos' horns, and most remarkably, drakes in Storm Peaks that kill rhinos and carry them in their talons up to the nests where their hatchlings are.

Artificial Atmospheric Actions / int_4c213722	comment	Splinter Cell: The Enemy Chatter is usually well-done if its pre-scripted. It starts to break down when guards start screaming with entirely different voices when they see you, or when the Informal Eulogy draws the line "Sadono will want to hear about this," after you've been killed right in front of Sadono. In fact, it's even possible for Sadono to be the only person left alive in the room when this happens, and he'll still say the line in a generic guard's voice. The annoyingly loud enemies in Conviction. As soon as you let even one of them get even a whiff of you, they start going on and on as though they're at some kind of Pep Rally. They seem to think it's a good idea to piss off the trained killer hiding in the room with them, potentially right behind them about to painfully murder them at any time. Alternately, they may be trying to psyche themselves up because they're scared silly. There are more professional enemies who don't have the chatter the mercs do. Parodied in Penny Arcade.

Artificial Atmospheric Actions / int_5425ce75	comment	Grand Theft Auto: In Grand Theft Auto III, the pedestrians would run screaming if someone nearby was shot; once they were a few yards away, they would resume their nonchalant strolling. In Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, you can acquire goons for your very own gang. They all look identical and stand outside of your base swapping a few lines at random. The frequent, "So I said to myself, Mario..." earned the gang the fandom nickname The Marios. In Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, ambulances will speed to the scene of a casualty. And we do mean "speed" — they're liable to plough straight into/through any pedestrians standing near the body (with a seemingly greater-than-chance likelihood of hitting the PC, but that might be an attempt at Laser-Guided Karma...) In Grand Theft Auto IV pedestrians would convincingly walk around with shopping bags, bags of groceries, answer their cellphone when it rang an so on, but if Niko so much as lightly brushed their arm by walking by, or they were distracted by a nearby incident such as a car hitting a pedestrian, they would drop everything they were carrying, observe for a moment then walk on. One can see how the average resident could go through several phones in a day and end up with a grocery bill in the thousands by the end of the week, not counting how many cars they need to replace or fix when Niko steals or rams them off the road. In all incarnations of GTA, citizens will jump and dive out of the way if a car is speeding. About half the time, this means they jump off the sidewalk and into your path, causing you to run them over. Another GTA staple, if you steal an emergency vehicle and drive with the sirens on, other drivers will appropriately pull off to the side of the road to let you pass. However, they'll do this even if they're on a bridge and veering to the side results in falling to their deaths. On the other hand, if they're in a tunnel or other location where they can't veer to the side, they'll just stop in the middle of the road and block your way. Enemies in Grand Theft Auto V will shout commands and encouragement to each other, but with a few exceptions, such as cops, none of them will respawn once they've been cleared from a particular area. It's rather amusing to watch a lone gang member who's surrounded by dead bodies run around in circles and yell "Come on, men!" at no one in particular until he's killed.

This works well the first dozen times, until you realize each leader has about 6 different lines to introduce themselves, propose a deal, say hello in a happy or angry way, start a war and lose a war, which gets repetitive really fast - and hilarious when you understand the language.

Artificial Atmospheric Actions / int_5908ee91	comment	The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim: In general, Skyirm is better than the previous Elder Scrolls games for this, making the citizens seem more alive than the rest of the series. However, you can still do some funny things, such as placing a bucket over peoples' heads and robbing them blind (They won't report you for crimes if they can't actually see you!) or jumping up on peoples' tables and kicking all their food, plates, and goblets to the floor. Even at a fancy party, people will merely say "Watch what you're doing" when you jump on the table and kick sweet rolls and platters across the room. Just don't actually take them - unless you put a bucket over their heads, first. Skyrim introduced invisible "interaction nodes" that various NPCs will "use" based on their schedule and role such as the owner of a store leaning on their own counter or various townsfolk sweeping the streets. The failings start to appear when you bring along Serana, who is programmed to not only interact with the various tools available to the player, but also the numerous interaction nodes present throughout the game. While normally only the NPC assigned to a specific node will use it, if left idle long enough Serana's AI will look for something to do, leading to amusing scenes such as her silently delivering a sermon in place of Heimskr or performing the Black Sacrament on Aventus' effigy. In Skyrim, CHICKENS used to report you for committing crimes. Followers are scripted to marvel at landmarks you walk past, even when you're exiting them. This leads to instances of your companion wondering what mysteries lie inside a cave that the two of you just finished clearing of bandits. This can happen with both major and minor NPCs with regards to your status. You deal with a member of the Thieves Guild a couple of times while trying to assassinate the emperor. After you return to him to help you set up your guild quarters he's clearly respectful of you but after business is completed he'll immediately ask you why you haven't finished whatever buglary job he assigned you. Seemingly every guard in Skyrim retired from adventuring due to taking an arrow in the knee. Worse, sometimes the dialogue glitches mid-sentence resulting in guards that have retired from adventuring after taking an arrow in the wife and kids. When you complete a sidequest for an NPC, who then gives you praise of the highest order... and you accidentally pick up a bit of his stock. Never mind that you're now his BFF, never mind that you put it back where you got it, shopkeep will still try to kill you for it. Fortunately this only happens if you stuff it into your pocket. This is somewhat mitigated due to a little bit of price programming. If you are friends, stuff under a certain price is OK to take. It seems to be somewhere around the 50s that it changes, since some potions are okay, but not all. However, there's still a major immersion breaker: all the food and silverware is far below the limit. You can walk into a friend's house, steal all their silverware and food and they won't even be a bit surprised. Even so, there are issues: Low valued items includes gold. You can rob your friend of all their gold (potentially thousands of septims worth), but they won't care since no individual piece was worth more than 1 septim. If you're completing a quest in someone's house or other private property and nightfall comes while you're talking to the NPC, then as soon as he's finished praising/rewarding you he'll scream at you for how you're trespassing and tell you to leave. People will often come up to your character and make random commentary, which is not only repetitive as they generally say the same thing over and over again, but also a bit odd depending on who you are. You can be the Thane of whatever keep you're at and the guards will still insist, "I have my eye on you orc/lizard/cat/etc", and you can be a female Nord and women will still come up to you saying "Bet you've never seen a strong Nord woman before". One thing that ups the immersion is having people comment on changes that your character undertakes, such as being sick. This also leads to unfortunate glitches such as people commenting on your being a werewolf long after you've cured it. Skyrim does handle the "Factional hive mind" a little better than Morrowind. For example, you can talk with Stormcloak aligned Jarls while part of the Legion provided you're not too far into the questline (ie, when they are deposed), and vice versa. Guards won't outright scoff at you for being part of the other opposing faction unless you walk in in full legion or stormcloak apparel. Guards also might have heard you joined a faction such as the Companions or the Mage's college in Winterhold, but not know that you're now in charge of it. That said, it does become quite immersion breaking when they act like you're at the lowest "rank" of said faction despite how long ago you've become the Archmage. While not knowing at first does make it seem more organic, it seems weird that the guards never seem to learn. There's also the fairly unique case of Mjoll the Lioness, also known as the biggest chatterbox in Tamriel. When you take her with you as a follower she has a pool of about seven different generic conversation options available wherever she goes, and every few minutes she'll fire off with one of them. While interesting at first, you'll quickly grow tired of hearing her talking about her mother's swordfighting techniques or hunting cliff racers in Morrowind for the twentieth time. She also has no problem talking right over other characters, even if they're plot-critical. Skyrim continues the tradition of odd reactions to dead people. Even better a glitch in the Civil War campaign can cause the leaders of their faction to never have their corpses removed. Consequently everyone in the room will continuously walk up to the corpse, despair over the murder, and then immediately go on with their lives. This makes it possible to, say, dump Ulfric Stormcloak's dead body on the throne and his housecarl's body on the table, then watch as people spawn and go about their day without taking into consideration that there's a dead body on the table. Some NPCs spout random quips even when you're passing by with no attempt to talk to or even look at them, acting as though you initiated the talk. Maven Black-Briar will ask "I assume you're bothering me for a reason?" even when it's clear that you're halfway across town by the time she's finished her sentence. Plus, outside of one thief quest and the possibility of her becoming Jarl, you have absolutely no reason to talk to her, nor is she particularly pleasant to spend time with. She may just be that conceited.

The subversion comes when the player notices that the NPCs actually do haul what they declare they are hauling and head towards where they say they are heading. For instance, a freighter carrying ship hull panels to a neighbouring system will really be carrying ship hull panels when the player scans their ship, and they will take the fastest patrol route to the jump gate or jump hole that gets them there, docking with said jump gate or jump hole at the end. They do not show up in the system they travelled to due to the game's non-persistent nature, however. In addition, the scripted dialogue also includes lines for special scenarios, such as when multiple ships are queuing up to enter a jump gate or jump hole, as well as lines that are spoken at random, such as "I hear you can buy anything on a Junker base.", "Keep it icy, man, I don't want to end up a corpse before my time because YOU were daydreaming.", "Ughhh, that last deal nearly killed me.", and so on.

Artificial Atmospheric Actions / int_6c1d09b3	comment	Fallout 3: Thankfully upgraded Oblivion's through the simple process of writing extra lines for specific NPC combinations within areas. While the traditional 'schedules' of Oblivion remain, it's not uncommon for NPCs to actually recognize specifically who they are talking to and therefore for slightly more organic conversations to occur. Due to engine limitations, however, they're still clunky as hell. Also in Fallout 3 Charon tends to spout the line "I don't like the look of this place", regardless of whether he's in a run-down school infested with raiders or in the middle of the PC's house. Cross: "I remember this place..." In Raven Rock. It would seem that the greatest improvement Fallout 3 has over Oblivion is this particular field wasn't some sort of engine modification or superior scripting, but rather simply having less towns, less NPCs per town, and more recorded lines per NPC. Being a post apocalyptic wasteland it has smaller and less dense populace than Oblivion's thriving empire. Fallout 3 also has its failings in this department. NPCs attempt to sleep periodically to seem more real. However setting off explosives while in stealth and in a barracks with many people not only fails to wake any of them up but no one seems alarmed either. Furthermore NPCs then continue to lay down and sleep with the dismembered bodies of the victims of said explosion on the same bed. Also of interest in Fallout 3 is the inexplicably short temper of any citizen looking at locked doors or at any of their wares. Walk by a locked door with someone watching and they'll likely tell you it's locked for a reason. Given the way that most people play Fallout 3, this is entirely understandable.

In The Sims 2, townies are notorious for randomly grabbing babies and trying to feed them. Also, sims will always do things in apartments - while this does keep the apartment from looking dead, it becomes really weird when you see your neighbours return home from work and immediately start swinging. They always go for the swings. OR they go upstairs and play music. Or they go to the bar (if it's in there) and try to drink something that may have been out there for hours. The Sims 3 has a few odd AI quirks, depending on how far you patch and/or mod your game. One that stands out in particular is the way non-controlled Sims seem to flock to public lots if you're on them. This at least prevents, say, the city park from looking too empty. The problem comes when your nocturnal Sim decides to visit the ghosts in the graveyard, and lickity-split a businessman, a housewife, and a schoolgirl show up — at 2AM on a Tuesday. They have no reason for showing up, and proceed to mill about aimlessly until you leave, or until their schedule finally kicks in, causing them to run top-speed off the lot. SimCity 4: The sims often have bizarre driving habits. This normally didn't matter, but on driving missions it became annoying. It is a known fact that all auto manufacturers install a bolt that keeps the accelerator at 50 miles an hour, no matter where the car is going. In general, when an emergency vehicle goes down the road, the cars just careen out of the way on to the side walk like a giant laser beam was heading down the road. Coupled with Artificial Stupidity, the Sims you can place to live in the city just have odd habits and things that make you go "why would you do that?". The most jarring show cases the problem of the default path-finding algorithm, where a Sim can't find his/her place of work... when it's across the intersection. In the previous game, Sim City 3000, the freight trains would actually stop and wait for the automobile traffic. Even more amusing when the neighbors do something funny like take a BATH in your house or freeload in your pool. In The Sims, visiting sims would almost always take a dip in your pool no matter how rude it was to take a dip in the new neighbors' pool. The Sims Medieval: People who are carrying swords, when they're not the active Sim, sometimes sharpen their swords, wait a few minutes, and then sharpen them again. In the "Pirates and Nobles" expansion, there's the addition of pet parrots and hawks, which inactive Sims seem to like calling, dismissing and recalling repetitively. The Monarch can hold court and hear petitions from his/her people. The problem is that there is that the petition are picked at random, not taking into account the sims' actual background leading to things like characters who are already parents asking permission to have children and leaders from foreign territories asking for money to save their farms. In all the games, characters occasionally think (with thought bubbles), and some of their thoughts are bizarre, such as randomly thinking of a teddy bear. In order for a Sim to realise they've been cheated on, they need to actually catch the cheater in the act. This applies even if they're a lesbian couple and the cheater got pregnant.

Artificial Atmospheric Actions / int_6fe3e8a7	comment	Neopets: Sometimes, your pets randomly talk. This can lead to them saying, "Know anyone who's up for a fight?" or similar even if you've programmed them to be friendly, "Today doesn't seem to be a very good day" even if they're at full happiness, and "I'm hungry" even when they're not. During the plot where Queen Fyora was injured, there was a glitch where she'd still appear, uninjured, if you visited Faerie City. Sometimes when you feed your pets, they will say something like, "I can't eat another bite" even if they're still hungry after being fed. They also refuse to eat certain foods, but gulp down gross foods despite complaining. Additionally, pets can say that they're thirsty, but if you make them drink, they'll treat it like food. In dialogue, pets sometimes use the word "a" when "an" or "some" would be grammatically correct. When a pet is turned into a baby, it behaves just like an adult pet. Pets only wear their sad faces when they are hungry, and will still smile even if actually sad. Similarly, diseases allegedly have symptoms, but sick pets will never show these symptoms, pulling their "sick face" instead. During the "Faeries' Ruin" plot, sometimes faeries would still send out quests despite being meant to be turned into stone. The Neopets Team eventually remedied this, jokingly claiming that they were going to remind them to stay stone.

Notably, right outside of the human embassy, there is an asari walking back and forth, forth and back. Enemies only have three possible lines, all of which they will repeat endlessly in combat. "Hold the line!" and "I will destroy you!" start to sound a little idiotic when they're being yelled by a lone sniper in a room full of crates. "Enemies everywhere!" Uh... No. That's just three people hidden behind one crate. It gets even better if both of your squadmates are dead. Even more insane, they recorded those exact same lines in several different voices. Fortunately, most of the enemies in the main storyline can't speak. Not even Shepard escapes this, due to the random shouts she or he will give out. This leads to... perplexing situations where Shepard will have a lengthy discussion cutscene with an opponent, only to shout out "We've been spotted!" when the actual fight starts. Shepard is also known to say "we've been spotted" while alone (as in Arrival). Everyone you can talk to (who isn't volus, elcor, or hanar) uses the same set of gestures (notably the "point at you" and "raise both hands parallel to the floor" gestures) and always walks off-screen to your left, leading with his/her head. The only unique gesture is Anderson's silly-looking "need-to-know basis" hand shaking before the first mission. There was also a common problem with the background NPC chatter. In an effort to avoid Welcome to Corneria, they recorded several (generally six to eight) "stages" for each one, so a pair of characters would toss off the first four or so lines of their conversation the first time you walked by, and then the next couple when you came back, and so on. Unfortunately, if you're around unusually often, they run out and start over from the beginning. Sometimes (like the two krogan on Tuchanka who keep taunting each other), it works. Other times (like, say, the asari and salarian involved in "something that'll last") it doesn't.

Also, sims will always do things in apartments - while this does keep the apartment from looking dead, it becomes really weird when you see your neighbours return home from work and immediately start swinging. They always go for the swings. OR they go upstairs and play music. Or they go to the bar (if it's in there) and try to drink something that may have been out there for hours.

Artificial Atmospheric Actions / int_802ca7b	comment	The Frigate mission of GoldenEye (1997) features several hostages that must be freed. Generally, they simply run away and disappear offscreen (with the message "Hostage Escaped"). If you follow them, however, they never disappear, and you can see that they simply run aimlessly about the ship at top speed. It's probably best not to think about these guys, since there's nowhere for them to escape to anyway (the only possible way to leave the ship would be via Bond's tiny one-man motorboat, unless they wanted to try swimming it). In fact, quite a few of the noncombatants in that game did odd things, from the scientists in the Facility level who would go sprinting for the bathroom once you left them alone (where, strangely enough, they would simply dematerialize without explanation) to the civilians in the Street level who would simply run around in little circles... through minefields.

Though this ensures that parts of cities aren't empty, it's particularly notable in Academia, where the same four children can be seen running around (and one invariably tripping and falling, to the others' concern) no matter where in the city you are.

Sometimes, a stink cloud will show up around her as though she needs a diaper change, only to go away without intervention. In "Lights Out", some characters will speak in third person (because the AI thinks it's Lincoln talking). In "Summer School", you can change the time to make it day or night, which leads to characters spending several nights at the same place in a row.

Unfortunately, the greetings are all randomly selected based on race, which has some odd effects if the NPC has an actual personality (such as the elitist, thankless leader of the Mages Guild greeting you with "Welcome, friend, the day is yours!"). If you are sick, even people who are friendly to you say "Yuck, get away from me!" like you are some kind of leper. And the funny thing is, you talk to them, especially Caius, and they seem to forget that you have the equivalent of Leprosy when you ask about certain things. Factions in The Elder Scrolls games, particularly Morrowind, have a bizarre hive mind with them, wherein people who you've never even met will somehow know you are a part of their faction or an enemy of their faction. As one YouTuber put it, joining most factions is like plastering your armour with political bumper stickers. 99.999% of the citizens of Morrowind are above the law. If someone is attacking you, they'll just act like nothing's wrong when, if you did that, they'd run right over and try to arrest you. And if you're attacked by an Ash Zombie after sleeping when someone's in the room, they'll just stand there and ignore them, as well as the corpse you left in their room. At the start of the game, take all your clothes off. Now walk around Seyda Neen and Balmora and marvel at how any individual NPC's walk-by reaction will switch between Naked People Are Funny and Please Put Some Clothes On on a dime. (Some of them are a little more consistent than others, though; Dunmer in particular seem to be universally disgusted with you.) This can even be useful. For example, there are situations where you want to kill someone, but their standard greeting drops you out of the conversation with an automatic "Goodbye," keeping you from taunting them into attacking you first. However, if you strip naked, their scripted "naked" response may supersede their automatic "goodbye," allowing you to then taunt them. Some NPCs are programmed to "wander." Rather than stay in one place, they'll just sort of mosey around a set area. Unfortunately, they sometimes get struck trying to walk through each other or get stuck in places they aren't programmed to get out of. (It isn't uncommon, for example, after quite a few hours of gameplay, for half of the wandering NPCs in Balmora to end up in the river that runs through town.)

Artificial Atmospheric Actions / int_b6b6098	comment	Moshi Monsters: The mission "Gustbusters" involves evil clouds putting everyone to sleep except you (who is limber enough to avoid them) and Sprinkles (who is explicitly immune). Trouble is, only Tamara and the three most prominent shopkeepers (Dewey, Raarghly, and Mizz Snoots) are seen conked out on the ground. The six shopkeepers of the marketplace are nowhere to be seen and the background characters Chomper, Stomper, Billy Bob Baitman, Tiddles, and Max Volume are all seen doing their usual and they're inexplicably wide awake. When the monsters drink, they use the same animation as when they're eating. Quests: Some locations have a character who lives there and is thus always (or nearly always) there when you go to that place. This becomes problematic when a quest is generated, since the characters who send you on quests are completely random, possibly resulting in two of the same character in the character's home base. And no one comments about the doppelganger. Dialogue is coded like a game of Mad Libs. This can result in phrasing like "in backstage", a singular "they" despite knowing the gender of the subject, "is" or "was" when talking about two characters, and "I have a problem" even when they're the one solving the problem. Sometimes, characters will say, "I lost my Moshling" even when they are Moshlings. For reference, Moshlings are pets, so it's a bit like a talking dog saying, "I lost my pet". Characters sometimes claim their ship needs cleaning—- but it's always the Cloudy Cloth Clipper, so unless it's Buck speaking, that's not true.

It's fun to go to concerts IRL and impersonate a Guitar Hero NPC. This is taken to its logical conclusion in Guitar Hero 2, where in the hipster venue, EVERYONE is wearing a striped shirt. Then there's the crowd surfer in Guitar Hero 3 that appears to climb up to the stage, shake his hand a couple times, and jump off. Some might call him a loyal fan, but he's in at least a dozen scripted sequences in the various songs.

Somewhat justified if the villager is being attacked, because villagers aren't programmed to use violence, but this applies even if the villager is in danger from something natural, such as fire. Bats occasionally set themselves on fire with the lava and continue to fly nonchalantly. Parrots are programmed to dance to all music... only trouble is, the AI counts all records as "music", including Tracks 11, 13, and 5, which aren't music at all, but rather a recording of someone being chased by a creature, so it can be rather disquieting to see the parrots dancing to that.

Artificial Atmospheric Actions / int_c4282b71	comment	The vast majority of background characters in My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic are simply copies of a small set of body styles, with mixed and matched colors, hairstyles, and cutie marks (the symbols on their flanks). This is fine until you wind up seeing several of the exact same character in the same crowd scene. Additionally, per the show's mythos, a cutie mark is supposed to be a unique, magically acquired representation of a particular pony's special talent and no two are the same; so when things like an hourglass cutie mark show up on several clearly different ponies over the course of several seasons, the immediate fan reaction is that he must be a Time Lord. And then canon assigned it to one particularly brown pony, who pals around with Rose and sometimes has been seen wearing 3D glasses for no reason. And that's not even getting into the official comics.

The "Kick Me" signs have this; although it's one of the more amusing examples. The way they're programmed, almost anyone will run over and kick the student with the sign on their back.

This improves in the Ezio Trilogy. You now have people doing more than just wander about, carrying things to and fro. People can be seen sweeping and cleaning, performing day to day maintenance on buildings and various other things such as fences, farmers are tilling the fields, etc. By Brotherhood and Revelations, you will occasionally see people standing in front of shops, as if they're about to purchase things, holding scripted conversations with the shop owners. You even come across picnickers and revelers out in the countryside in Rome, and you'll come across street performers in Constantinople. Things improved steadily in the next games, but then sent back to square one in Assassin's Creed III. In the Brazil mission, citizens don't let things like gunfire coming from a VIP box and a hooded criminal fighting security officers distract them from their routine of walking in circles and idly chatting up their buddies.

Artificial Atmospheric Actions / int_fa5e90fd	comment	City of Heroes: The game occasionally has office missions with dozens of terrified people running about. They're not headed for anywhere, and can push you around if you get in the way of their path, and can distract you if you have actual hostages to rescue. Better still, civilian NPCs aren't programmed to jump; thus, anything that's raised even slightly and not an incline is an Insurmountable Waist-Height Fence. It's pretty hilarious to see an office lady panicking between two boxes and a wall, or in a fountain, or behind a potted plant... you get the idea. This also happens in the Villainous Mayhem Missions, so as you're attempting to fight your way through the cops, you'll be swarmed by NPCs who can't die, offer no rewards, con as hostile, and do nothing but run around flailing and screaming. Meaning that auto-targeting before or during fights is likely to take several minutes as you try to either click on or tab through the massive hordes of red garbage to actually click on the person you're trying to fight. Targeting binds make this less of an issue, but it's still really, really annoying. The villain groups get in on this as well. Certain bits of dialogue are triggered by proximity, making it very easy to make two henchmen say their lines out of order just by entering through the wrong door. Due to the limited selection of idle stances, odds are good that said henchmen are threatening a wall/some crates/empty air while having this conversation. Also, some enemy groups feature radically different members. The Vahzilok consist of mad scientists and their zombie creations, but that doesn't stop the zombies going on rants, or the scientists shouting "Brains!". Similarly, several varieties of battle drones can be quite eloquent at times when all they're supposed to do is beep. A bug pops up time to time in hostage escort missions that involve multiple hostages. If you escorted them to the door, a single hostage will exit through it just fine. But if there is more than one hostage and you try taking them to the door one at a time, you will see them exit but when you go back for the others you might suddenly find that previous hostage following you around still even though the game considers them to have been "rescued". The civilian Non Player Characters in the cityscape are much worse off. One of the programmed scripts involves gang members attempting a break-in to one of the generic warehouses. For some reason, the script occasionally triggers on 'trees' raising questions as to the street value of sap. Another programmed cityscape event involves a civilian NPC getting mugged. The NPC is random. While it looks unusual when a businessman is struggling over his purse, it is downright embarrassing when it is a SWAT team member.

Artificial Atmospheric Actions / int_faf84cd	comment	Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines is pretty good about this, having NPCs not only stroll along, but also go to different locations, answer cell phone calls, and urinate in the street. Furthermore, on first entering Chinatown, you can even stumble upon a hooker "helping out" a policeman. They can't actually enter another room, however— a woman walks down the hall to the bathroom, kicks open the door and stares warily inside for a moment, then turns and walks off again.

Artificial Atmospheric Actions / int_fd0b756	comment	The long-ago text-based game of The Hobbit already incorporated this sort of action, resulting activities ranging from game-ending (the butler who unlocks the door in the elves' prison is already dead when you're caught, trapping you in jail) to fridge brilliant (orcs and elves capture each other and put each other in their prisons, despite not being intended to).

Artificial Atmospheric Actions / int_ff0f1797	comment	Even playable characters in your own party aren't immune to this. Rogue Galaxy is a notorious offender via the "Active Chat" feature. As you run around, your party members will bleat out short bursts of spoken dialogue which rarely have any relevance on what's actually going on, and in the worst cases, are downright stupid/lame/just plain wrong. The absolute WORST is Jaster's oft-repeated "Hope it all goes well." Just as annoying is Lilika's stock phrase: "Be careful. I sense something strange." And then there's the crap they spew when you're standing around idle (usually because you are in a moving elevator and can't really do anything else...) You can turn this shit off, but somehow it detracts from the game's atmosphere.
