They do talk at one point about the game picking up Byron’s player’s ideas about him being a berserker and integrating that into itself, creating an entire new mechanic that annoyed Daedelus….

It seems like Bandit’s backstory could work the same way.

Being more than a game doesn’t really answer how it works as a game while being an complete world where everyone has backstories and stuff, and they are interesting questions. Not much point wondering about them though since we know it won’t be answered but how being a game while being more than a game works is the question not the answer.

The answer is that it was always more than a game, so it’s irrelevant how the game portrays it to players, the game is just an interface, reinterpreting a reality to people who think the interpretation is all there is.

My guess is an aspect of character creation. If a very in depth one. But World of Warcraft has been going since 2004, that is more than enough time to craft, and play through a backstory, so if KoA has been going for even half as long it’s possible these could have been played.
