I mean a cursory glance at your own life ought to show you that you do in fact have a life outside of the experiences of some arbitrary person. If you were told you are an NPC, does your lifetime of personal experiences simply vanish?
Even if you were shown proof that you're a simulation, can you really just let go of your entire existence like that?
I think denial would be a far more common reaction than existential crisis.
