Gee, where have I heard this cope before from researchers studying cognitive determinism? I’m certainly not saying having an internal monologue makes you SMARTER per se, but it makes being self aware of your own thoughts and calculations far easier. People with internal monologues are able to examine and recalibrate their thinking process. Essentially it means that internal monologue makes a mind far more predisposed to self doubt. The NPC meme essentially suggests that lacking this mechanism for greater mental coordination leaves NPCs less aware of what they think and therefore unable to adjust or discard those assumptions. NPCs look inward with less clarity and more murkiness, meaning they are less aware of where their thoughts and assumptions originate from and it makes them less capable of “creating” novel interpretations. An internal monologue aids you in the coordination of your thought processes and calculations but probably makes you less adept at socializing because you can’t just instantly “speak” on impulse and instead have to filter through the internal monologue in your head before you actually “emote”. You have an additional filter instead of speaking on impulse. What’s more interesting is that people with internal monologues have to create new words for new things in order to think about them, which is why we have words like “abstract” or “inchoate” or “Polymorphous” instead of just “not real” “I don’t understand” and “weird”.
