So like do the animals in animal crossing know that I haven't been there for months? Does it weigh on their digital consciousness? I used to think that as a kid. You know that the animals actually kept existing in their digital prison while I wasn't there. It was fine of course, they didn't know it. Kind like Plato's cave you know. You don't know what you don't know, ignorance is bliss, et al etc. I wonder what it would be like to be an NPC. Probably bad I imagine. Probably not as bad as that movie with Ryan Reynolds about and NPC. Which I haven't seen to be clear. It could be a masterpiece. Anyway, maybe they miss me and I should go back, haven't been in a while.
