Many people know that I have a deep affection for Bingo Boffin in Lord of the Rings Online. The well-meaning but sometimes daft Hobbit adventurer starred in a very long quest chain — and yet, it wasn’t enough for me. It’s been great that he’s come back for more tales during the Halloween event, but I won’t rest until we get a Bingo Boffin expansion pack!
Sometimes certain special NPCs are like that. These characters rise above the rest of the crowd to become fan-favorites — or maybe just your personal favorite. And as a result of that fandom, you want to see more of them.
So which NPCs in your MMOs deserve more screen time? What would you like to see the writers do with these characters?
Every morning, the Massively Overpowered writers team up with mascot Mo to ask MMORPG players pointed questions about the massively multiplayer online roleplaying genre. Grab a mug of your preferred beverage and take a stab at answering the question posed in today’s Daily Grind!
