A new TikTok trend has creators acting like non-playable, video game characters — or NPCs.
NPC streams can be lucrative, as viewers gift creators to control their actions.
It started out with a combination of words that seems a little baffling: "Mmm ice cream so good, mmm ice cream so good, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes," Pinkydoll, a content creator, said during a TikTok livestream.
"Yes, yes, yes, gang, gang."
While her phrase "yes, yes, yes" is a response to a virtual rose.
