    I’d like to see this done on a candid camera, punkd, etc type show. Build a set with some magician level gimmick and have someone do something game-y, then log out. The look on the faces of the people as their brains melted out their ears would be hilarious.

      They’re more enjoyable for the player. It usually sucks big time to be an NPC in a game

        I dunno man, I think I’d enjoy being an NPC in some of the sim/builders I play. I enjoy it when my loyal subjects are happy.

        On the other hand, if they’re not happy I usually decide to give them something to be not happy about.

        You know what, forget the whole NPC thing. Players are voletile gods.

    This is the lesser shown part of the holodeck program.

    We know they experience this because Moriarty learned to summon the arch.

      It’s been a while since I saw the ep, but wasn’t Moriarty stuck on because the computer was asked to create an opponent that could beat Data and it got caught in a weird loop? I’m pretty sure Moriarty was a major exception in some way, none of the other constructs are self aware and all get turned off with the program

          Did he actually stay on like Moriarty? IIRC, Moriarty became self-aware/sentient and the crew was ethically bound to keep him running. With Vic Fontaine, I think it was more a case of “saving the game” so he could continue friendships when he was activated again.

            Yes, Vic Fontaine was a regular occurrence. He was not your typical program either, but because of that they let his program run all the time.

        Huh…I had no idea this comic was a reference to a tv show. I just thought everyone else ALSO wanted to leave, because, well…have you SEEN reality lately? I am not a fan. I can fully relate with wanting to log out of this timeline. How much worse can another reality possibly be? I feel like rolling the dice on a different timeline doesn’t have much risk. Worst case scenario you an equally bad reality. We’re already at bedrock.

          I don’t think it is, it’s just a “Simpsons did it” moment where trek has explored a ton of sci-fi ideas over the decades.
