"Capcom's Dragon's Dogma 2: Hiring Your Pawn as a Last Resort"

In Dragon’s Dogma 2, Capcom has implemented a system where if no real players hire your main Pawn, the game will create fake players to ensure your Pawn still earns rewards such as Rift Crystals. These fake players can do everything a real player can, and can be identified by their grayed-out names on the report card. Capcom's official FAQ confirmed this feature, ensuring that every player's Pawn remains employed and rewarded, regardless of real player interaction.
