Writing isn't meant to be conducive to speaking, however sensible that might be. Writing is meant to be conducive to grammatically correct writing. :count: :mad17:
It's either
An NPC
or
A non playable character.
DUH
What, I always say NPC.
It annoys me when people write something like a RPG, it feels weird too.
AN RPG
DUH
Kathryn FTW
I use "a" and "an" just like I would for any other word. I also don't care that I do it wrong.
'An NPC' sounds nicer to me if it's pronounced as an acronym. If I were speaking, I would say 'an' and so I tend to write it that way. If I were to expand the acronym and say 'non-player character' then of course, I would shove an 'a' before it.
