When an NPC's life gets an update

Greg gets everything he ever wanted

[yukilu]

"Spiders made more visible so puppies dont get killed accidentally" I love the throwbacks in the patch notes LMAO

[VivaLaDirtLeague]

We're picking up a general vibe that this story can't end here...?

[CalicoShadowPlusCat]

Okay, we need a petition to bring back Greg's wife as a permanent character. That was so cruel.

[mastanickel]

I swear Baradun saw the patch notes and walked by Greg at that very moment on purpose. Such a troll!

[Chraan]

You DO realize that we really need a Greg's revenge plot now, right guys? Right?

[Eddyl]

If this storyline isn't continued you will sadden your whole community. This actually brought a tear to my eye! GREGS QUEST, GREGS QUEST!

[cyberguy]

It was right then that Greg became self-aware and generated his own quest for adventurers to find his wife and child.

[trankhuong]

And from then, Greg's quest is no longer helping him to find his sheeps that have run amok, instead, adventurers will be asked to help him find his beloved wife.

[Mr.Leo]

We look forward to the hour-long adventure of grag's quest to get his wife back

[cloudbuster]

That was heartbreaking! This better damn well lead to a Baelin's Route type short film, because Greg cannot just stand by while the love of his life and his daughter are taken from him! She was real. She existed! Never forget!

[evanremillard]

That hit me a lot harder than I thought it would. Greg needs to go on an adventure to find her.

[leimmortalraven]

Gods, the energy of Greg being the one self aware and concious NPC in this world is TRULY horrifying. His story feels like Free Guy but as a psychological horror sometimes

[joshuareed]

Greg now needs to be an NPC that breaks free if his programming and goes on a quest of his own to bring her back, and take down the development team that did that to him.

[JokerChany]

I never knew how badly i wanted to see greg happy. He's the root of the whole series and deserves better.

[watts]

That story was more traumatic than most edgelords backstories. Bring back NPC man’s wife.

[michael_pilot]

Luckily it was pointed out that Greta's headgear had a flower of garlic on it, otherwise I wouldn't have noticed. Thanks Cycy for this great detail !

[IronDino]

New NPC quest: Find Greg's wife.
Developers: We didn't put that in there.
Greg: Which means you can't take it out.

[Enclave.]

The developers left the wedding ring on his finger, absolutely savage. At least one dev on the team knows that Gregs code is broken and he's achieved sentience and wants to punish him for it.

[James_Amarant]

jesus christ that was dark... poor greg he deserves to be happy, we need to start a petition to get greg's wife back

[gunslngrxero]

There's really no other option.
NPC man has to fight the final boss, the developer, and win back his family.
