Will the quests in Dragonborn be worth my investment in time

Post » Wed Nov 21, 2012 8:42 pm

Or will it be more of the same radiant story drivel that plagued most of Skyrim?

Seriously, I want memorable quests, preferably with multiple outcomes, not a "go here and kill this guy" mmo quest.

Being given a choice is always nice, like in Pieces of the Past I like the fact you can do two things, though why you would want to take the money I have no idea. I am yet to play through a lot of the DG missions yet as I am still getting distracted by other stuff. That, and I am addicted to making new characters.

The atmosphere and fun of quests in Oblivion would be nice to see again.. I don't expect that I will be sneaking through sewers into people's basemants or dropping deer heads on people.. But I hope for a fun experience.. And I agree, Skyrim and its DLC lacked that fun element present in previous Bethesda games.. I wish it was not as linear and was more like Fallout New Vegas in that aspect..

I quit MMOs to get away from that sort of [censored], only to find it has infected TES...

I highly doupt it will be any better OP, especially when TES went as low as to go the MMO route, lmfao.

Point of the thread? Oh yeah, an excuse to be negative about something that hasn't even been released. If your question isn't rhetorical, how on earth can anyone tell you what they'll be like? Edgy, bro.

I do play :smile:
I do like aspects of the game, but when it comes to the storys and depth which should be the main focus, to not complain is just... Well, i don't like being lied too, or shafted ^^

I'm sorry that the bitter truth of Skyrim not being as great as everyone glorifies it to be is too hard to bear. Realistically this is a legitimate concern, that, if addressed, will not only improve Skyrim, but the series as a whole.

Because you were role-playing one of the good guys that isn't about to kill a hapless idiot just because some otherwordly demon ordered you to, with the promise of power? I know I did, and it was incredibly satisfying to show ol' Mehrunes the middle finger. :cool:

Anyways, it's unfair to say that Skyrim did not have its unique moments, but I think most will agree that Beth went a little overboard with the Radiant Story system. They need to scale it back next time around. And it seems they've learned that lesson in Dawnguard, so here's hoping for Dragonborn.

Less radiant story doesn't fix the writing though.

I think an issue in Skyrim was a lack of true conclusions to quests. They seemed to end too abruptly with no dialogue and little to no effect on the world.

That is a very stupid statment to make on forum where we are here to discuss and share opiinons. I merely mentioned that your seem to always have a negative aspect to them to the point where I don't even know why you post here.

Opinion isn't even constructive, don't have an opinion.

I suppose that's fair, someone has to RP as the milk drinkers right?

Aye, though I wish it was a bit more gratifying. Killing the Dark Brotherhood was disappointingly bland. :confused:

You didn't answer my question; if this isn't a troll thread, how can anyone possibly answer a question regarding something that hasn't yet been released? See my first post. The "bitter truth"? Haha, you're hilarious kid.

If you want an answer this thread is meant as a speculation thread and the question is not an actual question.

What is it with people asking questions that nobody could possibly know the answer to?

Oh wait, lemme just fire up the Tar---oh wait, the bozo with the bowtie is still borrowing.
Maybe if we set the Way-Ba---oh wait that hasn't worked since the 70's...
