I always told you "Keep it short and simple" but never told you how. It's by a cinematography method called "Killing Your Darlings". No, you won't have to remove your NPCs or story plots. You'll just cut the excess out of them.

(Part I: Scene + Part II: Camera)

TL;DR: If something isn't about story / character progression or action and mood, just cut it. Use the "camera" creatively and purposefully. Translate or ignore group play examples into your SoloStyle.
