Hello everyone!

Thinking in this way, we will feel that we are trapped on a planet which we called Earth. We cannot go beyond its limits. Isn't it like a video game where characters cannot go out of its boundary? In battle royal games like PUBG, Free Fire, Call of Duty, where players control their own avatars and make them work, can't the same thing happen to us that we may also be the avatar of other players, whom we can’t see, are controlling us? There is a strong possibility that we may be the avatars of those players. But when I think about the people and all the animals around the world, my thinking changes. Not everyone can be a player in this game. Just as in games, some Non Playing Characters (NPCs) also exist with players. These NPCs are not players but play an important role in the game. Likewise in games, the things around the world can also be NPCs. Animals and plants are NPCs, but human population may also comprise of more than 99 percent NPCs. The job of an NPC can be to assist the player in a game so that the player's job becomes easier. Players in a game earn reward points by killing them, and sometimes players kill them just for fun. They can also kill the player if the game's programming enables them to kill the player. This way the tasks of the NPC are already decided.
But how to find out who is the player and who is the NPC?
There are some characteristics of NPCs from which you can check whether someone in your neighborhood is not an NPC or if you are not an NPC yourself.
If you are very religious and, despite of studying science and logic, are fanatical about your religion and strictly follow your religious customs, then you can be an NPC because your program does not allow you to think beyond this limit.
If you are determined to kill any person for your ideology and dogmatism, then you can be an NPC.
If someone lacks independent consciousness then he can be an NPC.
A person who specializes in only one task and his world is limited to that task, can be an NPC.
If your lifestyle is fixed. Always getting up on time, doing the same activities, and sharing the same thoughts, you can be an NPC. You can be an NPC if your life is limited to just getting a job, coming back home, then sleeping, and picking up the next morning and going back to work.
You can be an NPC if your hobbies are limited to just a couple of things, if your knowledge is limited, and if you live within a limited range.
If despite of your valiant attempts, your life remains in a simple state, there is a lack of money in your life, you do not get the pleasures of life, if your life is always surrounded by misfortune, then it can be said that you had been programmed as an NPC. Some characters in the game are always created to bear the burden of life.
Super rich and powerful people can have a strong potential to be the players as they are the ones who control the game of life and earn the most rewards from it. Even after this, if a rich man is limited to earning money only and leads a monotonous life then he too can be an NPC.
People in high positions can be the players, but if someone holding a high position is narrow-minded, knows only how to blindly obey to his bosses or powerful persons, is devoid of human compassion, is not argumentative, then he is also an NPC. Mental slaves are always NPCs. However, an NPC can also change his/her fate if he/she realizes what mistakes he/she is committing. It needs to think freely to be free from your fate.
Now analyze yourself and the people around you and find out who may be a player or an NPC. There are so many great games out there today that it feels like there's a real world inside. Similarly, our world can also be a game whose boundaries are fixed and where different types of characters are programmed in the game. A small numbers are avatars of players and the rest can be NPCs. But from this it also comes out that if more than one player can have avatar, then there will be more than one player who is controlling the people of our world from outside. Then there can be more than one God i.e. programmers and players and there will be someone to create their world too. It may be that whenever the program is restarted, our history also changes again and again. There are endless possibilities.
