As an drama student in High School, this fasinates me in a weird way. On one hand, bravo to the people that can handle this for hours. Keeping up a persona can be difficult, especially if you have to repeat things perfectly. I honestly wouldn't mind figuring out an improv game for this type of thing. On the other hand though...
@Kyemech with how often they have to interrupt themselves? How fast they have to react to the redeems? I work in retail, and maybe it is just my specific area, but I usually don't have go "hello [insert location here] how may I help you," every 5 minutes.
Both. I don't blame these guys in any way. They suppy something that's entirely harmless for that's obviously a demand for. It's the why I have a problem with. WHY is there a demand for this? lmao

@@jerusareem I mean, maybe... what's the longest tiktok video? 3 minutes? Unless it's in parts, why not just use youtube? The A.D.D of scrolling tiktok is too much and a trap, it's like drugs or gambling, just one more... JUST ONE MORE!
I mean.. they pay for their brain cells to get killed. Similar thing to alcohol for many of Us yet drinking alcohol is alright but paying random people to make a joke out of themselvs is not
So my theory is it's stimulating (not like that!). Repetitive, high pitched noises and actions can be pleasing to someone who is neurodivergent, or even someone's who's not. That's the most sane reason I can come up with. I mean, people probably just want to see if they can keep it up but yeah.
Actually that’s a very good point. I’m autistic and adhd, and both suffer from low natural dopamine, or at least atypical dopamine. For instance, autistic people often get lower than average dopamine from typically high dopamine activities (mainly social interactions, but also sometimes things like eating food and even exercising) but receive large amounts of dopamine from their special interests. And of course autistic individuals can enjoy socializing, but typically enjoy it a whole lot more if the topic revolves around a special interest or hyperfixation. Because of this, neurodiverse people are particularly susceptible to dopamine rushes, (a good example would be how skin picking, aka dermatilomania, is more common amongst neurodiverse people, especially when they’re anxious, because it gives little bursts of dopamine and therefore feels mentally soothing). However, as the internet and social media has evolved, attention spans and dopamine levels have been getting worse for even neurotypical people. Apps have started to perfect the art of quick little dopamine boosts, which keep peoples attention and causes the endless scrolling effect. Basically, you get just enough dopamine that you aren’t satisfied but will keep looking for more by scrolling more. Studies have been showing that these types of apps that utilize this scrolling effect actually leads to depleted dopamine receptors and as a result, more of an addiction to keep seeking these dopamine bursts. Studies have done brain maps to look at brain activity before and after a week without social media, and the results are pretty extreme. Since TikTok has perfected those dopamine bursts better than any app, it makes sense that people who use it a lot have messed up dopamine levels and are desperate for that “fix”, and I can absolutely see how these NPC streams would exploit that and be strangely hypnotic as a result. I pick at my skin and when I do I go into a sorta trance that becomes hard to get out of because my brain get stuck in this loop of trying to get that tiny ounce of dopamine, and I can totally see how these NPC streams could do the exact same thing. Sorry for the long bio psychology ramble, I just never considered that perspective before and I found your comment super fascinating!
I honestly think it's also for the sense of safety and control. People have been so stressed nowadays that this sort of parasocial interaction of influence gives them a strange sense of ease and security. It's kinda sad honestly-
@@princessjuliana7309 that’s another good point. The repetitive nature takes away any chance of unpredictability or uncertainty. I can see how the completely unchanging nature of it could potentially feel like a sort of comfort to people lacking the comfort of routine and certainty in their own lives. Especially when it’s so repetitive that it’s an easy mindless watch. I think it almost falls under the category of potentially meditative to (especially gen Z) viewers. It’s sort of like playing one of those mindless zoning out apps that are easy to play for hours on end (and where you don’t actually achieve anything meaningful), where everything is predictable and you can have even more control and engagement with it if you just spend some money. Except it has the added benefit of parasocial connection, where just knowing that it’s a real person responding to your input kinda tricks your brain into believing it’s some sort of actual human interaction, and because of that it tricks your brain into giving you a bit of extra dopamine.
@Isdatkari You either want comfort of civilization and accept that it never will be ideal or go into the jungle because you can't have both. Life is like that. Its about choices. I didn't even know this trend existed before watching this vid. I personally almost never use TikTok.. I even needed to see title of this video to remind myself about name of this chaineese app.
Yup. If there wasn’t such a wide discrepancy between the rich and poor. If inflation wasn’t what it was. If we weren’t in a late-stage capitalist society, all of this would melt away.
If the men who fought in WWII saw what this generation would become, they'd defect to the Axis powers, sell the nuclear schematics to the Germans and Japanese, and watch with binoculars as America burns in a mercy killing for the sanity of the world.
I don't see how annoying people like this can make tons of money and have a huge following and here I am struggling to get started,anyways thank you for the coverage on the npc's
It's sad, I mean come on, farmers and other workers who hsve back breaking get compensated really differently while somebody gets paid alot just for this BS of 'mm mm NPC' stuff, feels like mind control and abused capitalism
I knew she had to be in that business. The second she popped up I was like this chick got a only fans or something. Google search just brought up a ton of p-hub vids. Now if you don't mind, I'll be in my bunk.
Glad I wasn't the only one that knew she was a porn and asmr person too. She has been doing it a very long time too. I discovered her ASMR way back in 2015. Later I found out she did porn too. Now she doing this. She making bank.
I feel like I wouldnt be able to keep all the responses in my head and I would keep breaking character Which is good news. Theres one of someone with a friend looking in the camera pleading with the audience not to encourage their friend performing-- this friend who wont even acknowledge the other person because they are locked into the performance. Its honestly one of the scariest videos Ive ever seen
Wonder if he was her partner. Either she dumps his ass for becoming that thing, or she sees how much he pulls in and stays and puts up with it for the cash
The fact that people can do this for hours is quite insane. Just imagine if they devoted that time to learning instead. Money holds absolutely no value at this point.
Wtf are you talking about? Money means shelter, food, all necessities, care for children. Sounds like someone's bitter their making more then you ever will 😂
Money hasn’t had value for decades. Fiat currencies made sure of that, some people work hard for money. Some parasites abuse the system and just move money around for it to grow. Some parasites abuse mentally ill people to send them cash because they are incredibly lonely. If the economy ever crashes i will be beyond happy. This fucking game has overplayed its part.
I learned about this the other day and I still just don't understand. I feel second hand embarrassment from both the people who donate and the people willing to do this for the money. Mostly former though. Because honestly they should be ashamed of themselves for apparently being into(?) this. Just a few seconds grinds on my nerves and welcomes a beginning of a headache.
I like this take. I'd never do it or spend the cash to give stickers but if you're deciding on a minimum wage job or making $800 a week min, just do this until it dies off and move onto the next trick. So long as you're not shlopping glizzies in an ally or something, it's clean income.
When you look at something like this, the apocalypse doesn't sound like a terrifying event, but more like a hopeful relief.

The psychic damage I took from the second hand cringe of watching these people was hard to suffer through
Same
You are a psychic?
Sketch knew the answer, now you do too.

I am now enraged and need to take my anger out on something physically.

I’m genuinely convinced that there are actual npcs in real life.
And we are the only ones that are not

The Japanese guy had me rolling on the floor 💀, what is wrong with TikTok
So my theory is it's stimulating (not like that!). Repetitive, high pitched noises and actions can be pleasing to someone who is neurodivergent, or even someone's who's not. That's the most sane reason I can come up with. I mean, people probably just want to see if they can keep it up but yeah.
Actually that’s a very good point. I’m autistic and adhd, and both suffer from low natural dopamine, or at least atypical dopamine. For instance, autistic people often get lower than average dopamine from typically high dopamine activities (mainly social interactions, but also sometimes things like eating food and even exercising) but receive large amounts of dopamine from their special interests. And of course autistic individuals can enjoy socializing, but typically enjoy it a whole lot more if the topic revolves around a special interest or hyperfixation.
Because of this, neurodiverse people are particularly susceptible to dopamine rushes, (a good example would be how skin picking, aka dermatilomania, is more common amongst neurodiverse people, especially when they’re anxious, because it gives little bursts of dopamine and therefore feels mentally soothing). However, as the internet and social media has evolved, attention spans and dopamine levels have been getting worse for even neurotypical people. Apps have started to perfect the art of quick little dopamine boosts, which keep peoples attention and causes the endless scrolling effect. Basically, you get just enough dopamine that you aren’t satisfied but will keep looking for more by scrolling more.
Studies have been showing that these types of apps that utilize this scrolling effect actually leads to depleted dopamine receptors and as a result, more of an addiction to keep seeking these dopamine bursts. Studies have done brain maps to look at brain activity before and after a week without social media, and the results are pretty extreme.
Since TikTok has perfected those dopamine bursts better than any app, it makes sense that people who use it a lot have messed up dopamine levels and are desperate for that “fix”, and I can absolutely see how these NPC streams would exploit that and be strangely hypnotic as a result.
I pick at my skin and when I do I go into a sorta trance that becomes hard to get out of because my brain get stuck in this loop of trying to get that tiny ounce of dopamine, and I can totally see how these NPC streams could do the exact same thing.
Sorry for the long bio psychology ramble, I just never considered that perspective before and I found your comment super fascinating!
I honestly think it's also for the sense of safety and control. People have been so stressed nowadays that this sort of parasocial interaction of influence gives them a strange sense of ease and security. It's kinda sad honestly-
@@princessjuliana7309 that’s another good point. The repetitive nature takes away any chance of unpredictability or uncertainty. I can see how the completely unchanging nature of it could potentially feel like a sort of comfort to people lacking the comfort of routine and certainty in their own lives. Especially when it’s so repetitive that it’s an easy mindless watch. I think it almost falls under the category of potentially meditative to (especially gen Z) viewers.
It’s sort of like playing one of those mindless zoning out apps that are easy to play for hours on end (and where you don’t actually achieve anything meaningful), where everything is predictable and you can have even more control and engagement with it if you just spend some money.
Except it has the added benefit of parasocial connection, where just knowing that it’s a real person responding to your input kinda tricks your brain into believing it’s some sort of actual human interaction, and because of that it tricks your brain into giving you a bit of extra dopamine.
A coworker was explaining this to me at 5am and my only response was, “people need to stop watching stupid shit.” I think that sums it up adequately.
I still don't get it. Do you have an explanation? I just... I have no idea what's going on.
@@twntwn11 I think she’s imitating emotes that the audience puts in the chat??? I dunno tho, watching this made me very uneasy. Almost dystopian.
6:40 this dude made me kinda laugh. The girls are just uncanny and cringe. But this guy could could get hired for game sounds. Lmao
Take a shot every time PinkyDoll says a set of "Yes yes yes"
Anyone would die due to that challenge it would be way to much
I don’t normally have a hard time watching the stuff August is reacting too…
But this.
This was hard.
I did not consent to living in a world where this happens.
Go into amazonian jungle and cut off any means of communication. Find your peace
This is what our comrade cheguevara tried to prevent us from.
@Isdatkari You either want comfort of civilization and accept that it never will be ideal or go into the jungle because you can't have both. Life is like that. Its about choices. I didn't even know this trend existed before watching this vid. I personally almost never use TikTok.. I even needed to see title of this video to remind myself about name of this chaineese app.
youll live baby bro
11:16 August uhhh… you don’t sound to good mate
Dignity has a price
Its the absurd obscenity of late stage capitalism: absolutely anything can and will be commoditised.
😓
Thank you for being the voice of reason during these difficult times❤ I lost a few brain cells watching these and regained them when you spoke up.
I make awesome content as well! 😊
This says more about society than the performers. Wealth distribution at its finest.
Yup. If there wasn’t such a wide discrepancy between the rich and poor. If inflation wasn’t what it was. If we weren’t in a late-stage capitalist society, all of this would melt away.
...that yes yes girl is the equivalent of randomly clicking the middle button on your keyboard
We really are making our ancestors proud. Way to go, humanity.
I know they would be proud of how the young generation has become 🙄 . Well internet can be a good thing also a bad thing with TikTok on it
If the men who fought in WWII saw what this generation would become, they'd defect to the Axis powers, sell the nuclear schematics to the Germans and Japanese, and watch with binoculars as America burns in a mercy killing for the sanity of the world.

I don't see how annoying people like this can make tons of money and have a huge following and here I am struggling to get started,anyways thank you for the coverage on the npc's
It's sad, I mean come on, farmers and other workers who hsve back breaking get compensated really differently while somebody gets paid alot just for this BS of 'mm mm NPC' stuff, feels like mind control and abused capitalism

People pay for that? 😂😂😂we are doomed
3:49 have never heard August's laugh before today..what a warm sound of a laugh ❤❤
I also never heard his laugh before
Was thinking the same.
guys, 5 minutes of silence for august's braincells.
There's a step past cringe that is more extreme embarrassment mixed with true hatred for what we have become....
When I hear someone say the end is near, I say Good, and here's why.
I would be so embarrassed doing that stuff. Like explain that to your mother when she ask at the dinner table 💀
Imagine going out After this
i cant imagine them doing this then just returning to doing normal stuff
The only degraded one here is me having spent my twenties working in warehouses and kitchens to earn rent for myself and yachts for my bosses.
Realising the "worst tiktok trend" video was 2 years ago makes me realise how much time has passed since i found the duck
The more the years pass, the more i realize the movie Idiocracy is becoming a documentary.
The next generation is gonna have some serious attention problems adhd won't cover it maybe super adhd or something
Welcome to 2023, I was promised flying cars as a kid, this is what we got instead, quite the compromise lol
A compromise is reached when everyone is unhappy. We were just scammed.
ONG LMAO
I'm so grateful I never had children.
6:07 what happened to Ohio boss😭😭😭😭
Fun fact: the bobblehead NPC girl (Cherry Crush) is actually an adult movie star. Supposedly a popular one at that.
Nice, now she can do even less with her life to be successful lmao.
I knew she had to be in that business. The second she popped up I was like this chick got a only fans or something. Google search just brought up a ton of p-hub vids.
Now if you don't mind, I'll be in my bunk.
Cherry also has an ASMR UA-cam channel
Glad I wasn't the only one that knew she was a porn and asmr person too. She has been doing it a very long time too. I discovered her ASMR way back in 2015. Later I found out she did porn too. Now she doing this. She making bank.
9:55 - Oww. (Headphone user)
My ears i
Same m using one and JEEEEEEZ
I think TikTok Lives are the first thing to ever make me physically cringe and now my disappointment in society is beyond the negative numbers.
I have never been so happy to need hearing aids for my 50% hearing loss, I just turned them off and this video became infinitely better.
Honestly, with how soft you voiced that little "example" at 5:38, you might just do pretty well from all I've seen!
I thought the asian guy was actually kind of entertaining lmao his at least seemed more like it was meant to be an NPC bit
I feel like I wouldnt be able to keep all the responses in my head and I would keep breaking character
Which is good news. Theres one of someone with a friend looking in the camera pleading with the audience not to encourage their friend performing-- this friend who wont even acknowledge the other person because they are locked into the performance. Its honestly one of the scariest videos Ive ever seen
Wonder if he was her partner. Either she dumps his ass for becoming that thing, or she sees how much he pulls in and stays and puts up with it for the cash
Bro, I feel like I’m a Poland soldier and the Nazis have captured me and they’re forcing me to watch this
The most amusing clip I saw was when pinkydoll broke character and chewed out her 5 year old in French
The fact that people can do this for hours is quite insane. Just imagine if they devoted that time to learning instead. Money holds absolutely no value at this point.
@@colekter5940 you misunderstand him
Common sense gone these days. So is the IQ.
Wtf are you talking about? Money means shelter, food, all necessities, care for children.
Sounds like someone's bitter their making more then you ever will 😂
Money hasn’t had value for decades.
Fiat currencies made sure of that, some people work hard for money. Some parasites abuse the system and just move money around for it to grow. Some parasites abuse mentally ill people to send them cash because they are incredibly lonely.
If the economy ever crashes i will be beyond happy. This fucking game has overplayed its part.
3:48 I love August’s laugh! 😂
11:16 WHAT HAPPENED 😂
8:31 Is an active pornstar. Don’t ask me how I know that.
How do you know that?
I'm not going to ask
Were these NPCs written by Bethesda?
A lot of people ask me how come I don’t have TikTok. This is why.

I learned about this the other day and I still just don't understand. I feel second hand embarrassment from both the people who donate and the people willing to do this for the money. Mostly former though. Because honestly they should be ashamed of themselves for apparently being into(?) this. Just a few seconds grinds on my nerves and welcomes a beginning of a headache.
It's nice to hear august genuinely laugh but at what cost... Also dear god this is a HORRIBLE trend...
I like this take. I'd never do it or spend the cash to give stickers but if you're deciding on a minimum wage job or making $800 a week min, just do this until it dies off and move onto the next trick. So long as you're not shlopping glizzies in an ally or something, it's clean income.
