NPCs shouldn't just volunteer; players need to be nice to them in some way before they give information. Get into the habit of applying OGAS, and let the OGAS guide you. Let the AI take over. ## Citation ``` [^greatgm]: _Self-operating NPC's - The NPC's you never knew you needed_. Retrieved from https://youtu.be/RzWXuy8QWgI .
