Edit: Deleted previous post. Still meant what I said then.
@Drackos @Howard
First things off, this is just a chat/ discus. Don't take it all seriously or say " step into my office" kinda thing if you see that. lol. All I want is an understanding. So making sure you understand me is going to be what am trying to accomplish here. Well, no further ado here goes...
No sir. So what is understood by most is NPC are to be controlled. I see three levels in NPC. One, the background NPC: no one controls that npc, it is publicly up for the user to use however they want. Two, a step up from that is the NPC that you meet in games to buy stuff or interact with on a restricted level (protected by the system) as they cannot attack or harm you in anyway conversely neither can you. Three, this is the NPC that is seen in the NW as boss characters etc. That type is one that requires mod interaction and strict management in acting and replying to users.
Now I am talking about stage one. The lowest type of NPC. The one what is part of the amasses, one that isn't managed but rather explicitly explained in the lore. How does such function work? Simple. World building. The world in NW never explores what the humans in that world are like, their limits, what's normal and etc. Given all shinobi are born out of humans or are very much a relation to them. To the world, the logic of a shinobi is it a rarity or a normal occurrence. Is the world simply full of shinobi? What are the chakra levels of regular NPC humans? What's the logic to sensing them, are they few in number in each landmark?
Speaking of Landmarks.
[Suggestion] I would hope you could impute a system that would prompt a serous factor in LM claiming. Such as defending these landmarks. For multiple damage done in a landmark, would further remove that LM from the village or clan that claimed if they so much couldn't defend it constantly. For example, 3 strikes in a row resulting in a removal of LM from clan or village. This is because Rogues ninjas aren't like villages and going to war...is just illogical. However by these means, it gives those members a way to either target villages or simply be hired by villages as LM guards etc.
Anyways...I think I answered that quote. Let me know if you need me to further think on and expand on what am taking about. I draw this idea from the ATLA series. The world built is self explanatory, one understands how the avatar is view and the predictive outcomes of background characters in comparison to the avatar. (I might have lost my thought train lol).
Moving on:
You actually pissed me off. Wow.
Where's the canon lore for that judgment. No being an ass, just what I was pointing at. The NPC are literally unexplained or elaborated on in that manner. We simply know they aren't like us, they cannot come together to challenge us (not saying they should lol), nor do we know how much chakra they have. Sensing with...chakra sensing sure. So my question is: Sharingan, byakugan, rinnegun, or tenseigan users in a landmark that has many people with chakra moving about, how does one scan the landmark for the amount of chakra in a single person that they determine 'they have more chakra than others' when those individuals are simply walking by normally??? Please let me know.
No, millions on millions of NPC being controlled by the mods or anyone isn't what am talking about. I am looking to understand the basic logic of NW. Nothing more than painting a vivid world of what the Ninja world is like. Like if you were an NPC how would you see it, when presented with such knowledge of things. We know shinobi move faster than bullets, we know the dead can come back. These truths all well known. I pounder on the factual point of view a landmark taken over then more others are taken over and a ''war'' occurring which simply leads to thee landmarks transferred to another without conflict of further logical negotiation or something to reaffirm control of these lands. Or when these lands get attacked and the village simply ignores it since it does nothing to remove their control of these lands.
Furthermore exploring the aspect presented by
@Strix as they gave this idea of having consequence in missions. This would be a way to show a breathing world that's impacted by changes. Such as even if those landmarks aren't claimed but are devastated by the an attack by a shinobi. Local NPC should auto generate a bounty or something like a cry for help. This all a post of view of a living world. Which I know bounties are coming back, this is a good way to impact that place in a way.
Onto the next thing;
If you're trying to hide, would you opt for that? No. lol. I wouldn't go anywhere like that. Reason why I think sensing people so easily is flawed. I am not to say 'random' meet-ups shouldn't be a thing its just when hunting someone without much logical explanation by simply saying "seeing their massive chakra amount" or something like that shouldn't be a thing. It removes the struggle/ interesting strategies people can come up with to search someone out. It makes the world more alive and not a 'store' people go into.
Umm. I don't mind, if it's linear or not.

Hire mini helpers...there was that at some point.
What do you mean by "not build it"? I don't want a village. So if you mean making a village, then there's a problem in your point of view. "
Seek out someone stronger, a leader, and gravitate toward them." NO! I VIOLENTLY SAY NO. That's forcing/ pushing a view onto someone. The NW is a sandbox, no such merits should be pushed like that. If one seeks the road of individuality, then 'tip a hat' to that. We all shouldn't be structured in a view YOU believe in. "undertaking just to read through the stories you create" but ya'll do a great awesome job! If life demands much, hire mini-workers to lessen the load boss. You guys have the power to manage actual-humans too, right..>.o
It seems you're contempt with the system. Well, I guess there's no logical fallacies you see, could you show me how you do that? Maybe am just never satisfied with what's given to me. Y_Y I think NPC has been quite something I've complicated that wasn't needed further explanation on, how do you view landmarks, the world of NW. The NPC in it. Is it just me, Honestly?
To my conclusion, please help me be more clear. If you have questions about something I said, I can reiterate in another way to the best of my ability. There's probably grammar issues in there, I AM SORRY. I am trying >.< So please work with me to make sure ya understand me.
TL;DR: NPC discussed about here aren't the type of controlled NPC you're used to, rather more on the lore aspect of things. Understanding the world-building of NW NPC in a general sense, relating their connection to the landmarks and colonialism logic point of view. A bit of LM chakra sensing further discussed upon on how it functions in screening out the targets when its not the 'chakra sensing jutsu'.
