One Honkai Star Rail NPC causing a stir
Tara Yael is a "highly annoying" NPC in Honkai Star Rail, if fans are to be believed. The mysterious figure is hindering players’ enjoyment of the game and even impeding their progress through the story as they repeatedly interrupt actions. The complaints are coming thick and fast, with thousands of players taking to social media to slam the character. So who is Tara Yael, and why is she causing so much trouble?
It all started with a tweet by user @Nyugo that reads, "Tara Yael is the most frustrating NPC in Honkai Star Rail." It quickly got shared thousands of times, with players expressing similar frustrations with the character.
"Tara Yael is incredibly annoying," begins a Reddit thread on the topic. "She gets in the way of missions, and I can’t stand her. I’m hoping she’s just some NPC that we can ignore." Another player responds, "Tara Yael is the most annoying NPC ever. I’m on Chapter 3, and the game is already annoying."
Players have been quick to share their stories, and the complaints are coming thick and fast. "I’ve been playing for about 20 hours, and my primary complaint is about Tara Yael," writes user sbz_tweets. "She’s a really annoying NPC, and she keeps getting in the way. She also keeps talking about some ‘treasure,’ but I don’t see it anywhere."
Others have gone as far as suggesting that the character should be removed from the game entirely. "Tara Yael is the most annoying NPC I’ve ever seen," continues the same player. "She’s so bothersome that I want to throw her off a cliff. If she’s not removed in the next update, I will throw her off a cliff."
Despite the frustration, there’s a humorous undertone to the complaints, with the community coming together to share their experiences and commiserate with one another. Tara Yael’s actions are certainly hindering your enjoyment of the game and are becoming a topic of discussion within the game’s community.
Despite its lighthearted tone, the outcry serves as a reminder of the impact that non-playable characters can have on your overall gaming experience. Sometimes, the character you never interact with can have a bigger impact on your time with a game than the characters you play as – and Honkai Star Rail’s community certainly reflects the importance of well-designed NPCs.
