i think the problem is that alot of them spawn with 3-4 right on top, instead of one............

They need to fix the broken spawn rate in the Merc room of the DWB...it is becoming the next Geo Caves....

But agreed, there are too many useless NPCs just standing around saying crap....

Remove the extra's. A few standing around is good for role-playing, and they can be talked to, etc. One example that comes to mind is how Sean and Victor's secretaries tell you to check with the local townspeople regarding the upcoming election.

But when you go through Mos Eisley and see FOUR identical short grey-hairedLt. Ogo's, the Tatooine Planet Recordkeeper, standing almost one on top of the other, then something needs to be fixed.

There need to be a few in game or it would be really empty. One spot that could use some cleanup is the Dearic SP. Always a bunch surrounding the ticket droid to the point you can hardly target it.

I agree with getting rid of non-essential npcs.

However, keep this in mind - many of the "non-essential" npcs are actually targets for delivery missions. So they have a function.

And they really do serve a use in making it feel a little more alive... I mean you walk through any Large Player City or some of the NPC cities with very few NPCs running around and it just feels really dead. It would be good if more of them had some sort of use. But as noted a lot of them end up as targets for missions. Maybe a few less in some areas a few more in some other areas... but they should keep adding to the NPCs speech or uses as the games goes along. If I talk to some random NPC last month and it says some random phrases If I talk to it next month it would be interesting if it had something else to say. But something like that while easy would be very low on priority for dev time.
