Final Thoughts

Character Arcs undergone by characters we care about can add significant emotion to a film experience, and they can perform a similar function in a game.

In a game it is challenging to have an NPC go through a Character Arc when that NPC has relatively little "screen time," compared to the characters in a film or television show. Nonetheless it's absolutely possible in many games in which there are recurring NPCs. How would I know? I'm adding NPC Character Arcs in most of the games I'm currently helping design and write.
