"It Was This Big"
After Kotaku's highlighting of Age of Conan's Best NPC Of All Time (above) I was reminded to ask Tom Francis at PC Gamer UK to post his account of what is probably the Second Best NPC Of All Time, Thedret The Exaggerator. Possibly my favourite story of an in-game bug, ever.
I love my Thedret because no-one else has one. It took Valve six years to make Alyx a likeable aide, but this piece of sloppy code has made Oblivion's Thedret far more important to me.
If I could have anything, I would have a Thedret like Tom. Anyone have any other nominations for what I will now call "The RPS Inadvertant Best NPC Awards 2008"?
