But isn't that what a video gaga is? Who expects npcs to behave that realistically with today's tech? The articles main complaint seems to be that the NPC's are there only because of the 'player' and they only exist to serve the 'player' ,well isn't that the whole point of a game? 

Not really sure what you are missing. 

As he said, the have strives for realism in almost every way, to the detriment of gameplay and fun. They are building s believable world. But the NPC's break this illusion because they don't appear to respond realistically.

I understand that part , its just the way the argument is constructed in the article comes off very strange to me personally.
