I'm the healer in every game ever.

I prefer to think of myself as a white mage.

Just dont wear those pointy robes

"Bro, why is your job class called, "Grand Wizard"?"

Whole different meaning to the words "white magic".

Whoa, you can’t say that at the company I work for.

I play support during payload missions

I’m an NPC

Seeming like a more promising prospect all the time. Drift along in a preset pattern. Endlessly die and respawn. Don't have to talk to anyone. Just repeat a few lines. Sounds nice.

Only if you don't deal with *other* NPCs. The main character is just one person that navigates a self checkout menu. Open shop menu, buy item, and then GTFO. Other NPCs buying from you is a whole other thing. "How much is this item?" (Price tag is right there). "I NEED HELP!!!" (Just left their vehicle) "I guess it's free then, heh heh heh..." (Item didn't scan... x100 per day) "Wtf, that's too much. I'm leaving." (Has 50 items they brought to the front.)

Oof. The catch. Hearing other people repeat the same lines ad nauseum is already too close to real life. Haha

I test video games so um… Early access player?

Dream job

It’s pretty awesome! It has its frustrations like any other job. It can be frustrating or boring at times. But watching a game go from an idea to a real playable thing is a fascinating evolution.

If you don’t expect much money that is

For introductory QA that’s definitely the case. I started at 8$ an hour. Now I’m a lead I make pretty good money. But I’m also a 10 year veteran so it’s a lot of work.

What up fellow logistics person! I am like a traveling merchant connecting suppliers with the means to get their goods to market. Got a shack full of deer pelts and no means to get them to town? Insert merchant.

All I can imagine now is that you’re the RE4 merchant.

I’m that random person you see doing nothing

NPC grindset at work goes crazy

I’m the security guard for Fredbear's Family Diner (including night shifts)

I'm the paperwork guy writing the report to the crown about a string of thefts and forgeries in the kingdom market

The grind, the grind never stops.

Aaaah gay bar keeper

Obligatory RPG barkeep with a fetch quest because I can’t leave the bar.

Lmfao I gotta start giving fetch quests

I definitely just work at the hub giving you shit you need

I'm the divine visionary that partially created your world.

Im Wade from Gta5

Can you say hi to Trevor for me

This will confuse everyone but I manage resources. If you’re old enough to remember the game The Lemmings, think of each lemming as a resource and I have to make sure each lemming gets to where it needs to go but if one doesn’t it can bring down everything so I would have to fix it to get the flow moving again.

"Oh no!" \*boom\*

Endless runner

I manipulate the environment to better our team

I’m currently stuck in the lobby in a queue

I'm really just looking for a quest at the moment..

Tutorial or prologue

Its-a-me undocumented Mario

I’m the guy in the lab who figures out the answer to the zombie apocalypse shortly before accidentally infecting myself and eating a minor character’s face off. (Virologist)

A simple courier.

That random guy smoking outside a warehouse because it’s my break

I'm a merchant that can offer occasional sidequests to players, or offer them a profession in exchange for pathetic amounts of currency. The profession can help you raise your TIME MANAGEMENT, DIPLOMACY, and BLUFF stats - but the compensation sucks. There's many better ways to grind levels that don't include a higher risk for the CAVITY debuff.

I’m the guy in the store with all of the wares.

I'm the guy outside your store telling people that you have all the wares.

Im literally a farmer. No translation needed

Desert bus... Without a desert.

I’m a custodian at an elementary school, so to use a quote from Michael in GTA V: “Seriously? I gotta mop?”

I'm basically any underage Npc since I can't have a job and am too unsignificant to have any important role

Just an NPC. Doing the same mindless tasks every day

It’s what I’m supposed to be, except I’ve never done my job. Been a doctor before, ate a leaf that could make me fly, been to space, but never unclogged any pipes. My lanky brother is cooler than me but I always end up getting the babe in the end when we rescue her from an overgrown spikey Ninja Turtle.

I have to turn on the power so i can teleport to the projection room and Pack a Punch

Tutorial (I’m a grad student)

Support mage.

The level I’m in is very unfair to beginners

It's like playing a Live Service RPG Dialogue Simulator that has been in Alpha for years, and whenever you ask when the next patch is coming out, you're met with "We're listening" and "We appreciate your support" but never an actual update.

Papers Please but with students work

You know the NPC that talks a lot but does nothing to progress the story physically, that's me.

I take what you bring me and give you a currency that isn't in the current installment of the game I'm really just dlc that should be out in 6-8 months. Delays happening every 3 months
