Hello you wonderful deviants,

I recently posted a form about Side Quests you enjoy and don't enjoy in Videogames. Which you can still contribute to here

But, i'm sure to no one's surprise, two of the most common "Disliked" quests, are fetch and escort.

And it gave me an idea I wanted to float by you all. How would you feel about some Fetch and Escort quests that clearly make fun of them.

For Example:

Escort - You literally just escort someone like 5 steps in a game.

Fetch - You speak to someone who asks you to fetch something, and the actual solution is telling them to get it themself or just decline (but declining would be finishing the quest)

Personally I don’t mind escort or fetch quests so long as they’re attached to something. Like in Skyrim when you get the dragon stone. Sure it’s a fetch quest but your also exploring a dungeon. It monotonous types liking going to another city or finding something that generates randomly in the wild.

Hey Yo Moe, thank you for your feedback, that's really super fair. Definitely a matter of reward to effort ratio

An escort quest with an actual escort would be funny for a H game
