Synopsis
NPCs are digital Sisyphus machines that have no perspective of breaking out of their activity loops. In the moments when the algorithm shows inconsistencies, the NPCs break out of the logic of total normality, and appear touchingly human.
Sinopsis
NPC-i su digitalne Sizifove mašine koje su kontinuirano u istoj petlji. U trenucima kada kada algoritam postane nedosljedan, NPC-i izlaze iz logike vlastite normalnosti i djeluju dirljivo ljudski.
