Who's Your Favorite MMO NPC Teammate?
We all have favorite MMO companions, but which NPC teammate stands out as the best? Share your pick and join the discussion.
We all have our favorite people to hang out with in MMOs, right? I have my usual group that I run with in the games I play regularly, after all. But today that's not what I'm asking about.
I'm asking about your favorite NPC teammate—the computer-controlled companion who you think of as just the best. You know, the one who always has your back, never complains, and maybe even carries you through tough fights.
Maybe it's a loyal pet that's been by your side since level one. Or a story-driven sidekick with a personality that makes every quest feel like an adventure. Could be a healer who saves you from certain death, or a tank who takes the hits so you don't have to.
Whatever the case, these NPCs become part of our gaming memories. They're not just code—they're characters we genuinely care about. So, who's your favorite? Is it someone from a classic MMO, or a newer companion that's won you over?
Share your picks in the comments below. We'd love to hear which NPC teammate you think is the best and why. What do you think?
