When I first played the witcher 3 and did the quest where the duke or whatever tasks you to find his wife and you find out he beat her and she lose her baby and ran. I was amazed and shocked at how extremely graphic and mature the content of the story line was. I fell in love immediately.
The Bloody Baron quest COULD have been fantastic had CDPR not danced around the issue so much they made it a point NOT to say something on the topic of spousal abuse. That they felt the need to present him as a sympathetic character and that there's "two sides to consider here". No, if you beat your wife, you're a piece of shit. Full stop. If you beat your wife so bad she miscarries you deserve to be slow roasted over a pit. The simple fact that the Baron never got what was coming to him is a perfect example of CDPR being too scared to actually say something with their writing.
@@Axetwin I remember my brother playing it in a way that ended up with the baron hanging himself. I can't remember how he got that outcome but you could see that as him getting what he deserves
@@Axetwin No, it was fantastic. Especially that nearly everyone hates on Baron, until you discover the whole story, that both of them were as horrible as the other. Also, she had a miscarriage due to her wish to three sisters ;).
I absolutely loved the Witcher 3 for it's storytelling. The main story is awesome and many side quests tie into it and can play into the ending you get. Even the unimportant side quests feel like full mini stories. Probably the best open world game in like the last decade or 2
@@mikescherrer4923 that's one opinion. I would say sales and reviews speak much louder. The world was one of the best looking of the time and holds up great now. The story was better than anything I've played since. Gameplay was actually extremely fun especially set on a higher difficulty. It took the open world concept to a higher level that was never achieved before and hasn't been hit again since. The dlc alone was full of more content and had a better story than most full games. Please name one game in the genre that did it even half as good because I would love to play it.
Agreed. The Witcher 3 plus it’s expansion packs were worth every penny. Undoubtedly one of, if not the, best RPG game of current/last gen consoles. Cyberpunk aside (which I’ve not had a chance to play yet), CDPR really did put in a load of work into the Witcher and you can tell. Story-wise, gameplay wise, graphically, and in terms of the lore, the game is honestly a masterpiece. One game that I will honestly never get tired of playing again and again.
@@civoreb yea I loved it. I had never played the first 2 but part 3 caught my attention and just sucked me in. I've actually played through it 3 times lol. I got it on my old VCR Xbox one, then played again when I got an Xbox one x. Then again just because I wanted the better ending. Now they are about to release the optimized version for the new consoles so I'll be playing again on my series x. Hands down my favorite game currently. And I'll probably play it again in a few years lol. Hopefully they make another one down the line.
Beyond Hill and Dale from Witcher 3 DLC was probably one of the most unexpected quests I have played. A fairy tale world that is dark as hell, its like the complete opposite of Kingdom Heart
I love the quest in Kingdom Come Deliverance when you get drunk with the priest and have to give the sermon the next morning cause he’s hung over in a barn with 2 barmaids.
Or the one in like the same town where you can get drunk and have to fight the devil after fornicating with witches. I don't know why I didn't figure Henry was a drunkard when the save mechanic was literally alcohol lol
6.56 million subscribers have been waiting LONG for gameranx to provide timestamp chapters in his videos and he doesn't give a damn. He never gives the timestamps, which is annoying. That's a disgrace to us. Many of us asked him to add timestamps in his video, but he doesn't bother. Even small YT channels have timestamps chapters in the seekbar. I don't know why he would not add timestamp.
Seriously, I always do the thing where I play as a cannibal & I get Mortimer his original target (the whole knocking him out and putting him in a dumpster is hilarious), and save heck's son too.. feels like the best possible ending.
Definitely, and although I know this not not technically considered a quest, the survialists story from Honest Hearts is awesome. Same with the whole vault 11 story (the one where the overseer is sacrificed). Just an incredible game.
The entire Witcher III game is genius. Nothing should be overlooked. Best game of all time. Still playing it to this day. And what's with Bethesda putting cannibals in pretty much all their games? Creepy!

That wall you showed at 5:31 is not the door that unlocks after joining the Daughters of Chaos covenant. That is the location where you get Kirk's Armor of Thorns after you defeat him three times as an invader. The door that unlocks is the one just before the Demon Firesage boss in the Demon Ruins. There is a place where you can walk down a large tree branch and encounter several Chaos bugs. If you've done Solaire's quest up to that point, he is on the other side of a large door. This is the door that can be unlocked by the covenant and is a shortcut to Lost Izalith. If you're actually trying to save Solaire, I'd highly recommend watching a video or reading a guide first as it is easy to mess up.
i love finding unmarked quests while playing a game. some of them are bizarre and ridiculous which makes them standout from all the other quests but that's what makes them enjoyable to find. sometimes they even reward you with unique weapons/armor/items or a good pile of decent loot. maybe you guys can do a video on that. 10 hidden quests/missions that have awesome rewards
'Shining lights, even in death' from MGSV is etched into my mind even if it isn't genius, because it validated 'Demonization' with the fragment-horn from the start. Quite a grim mission.
There is this quest in the witcher 3 dlc with house full of spoons and a cursed lady turned into a monster luring people into her house inviting them to dinner to try to break her curse by making a guest eat with her willingly. Its one of the best quests i have experienced truly special.
Yep, Witcher 3 probably had the most number of memorable side quests, sister killing her own sister over a warewolf guy, cannibal old couples, the bird lady quest, everyone's favorite Roach talking and many other, goddam that game is one of the greatest game I have ever played.
The quest in Kingdom come deliverance when you get drunk with the priest was awesome , and another very memorable mission for me is the one from farcry 3 when you burn the weed I loved these
Judy's whole storyline from Cyberpunk deserves a mention. This is a video about individual quests, but her storyline and romance path had me completely encapsulated. Cyberpunk had its problems, but holy fuck the storytelling in that game was incredible.
fallout 4 silver shroud is probably my favorite side quest ever. So ridiculous, and you get dialog options of responding to everything as the silver shroud.
The whole real estate side-quest from Yakuza 0 will never leave my mind. Task is simple, buy real estate and fight the competition. Great way to gain insane amounts of in-game money. This quest is insanely long and felt like its own game by itself. Hell! This quest even has its own end credits.
10 best choices in video games. Basically do the best times a video games gives you different options in a quest that will change the way the quest plays out or the game.
The Yakuza series has so many great side quests or sub stories, as they say it in the game. Judgement, for example, has so many great side quests. Some running jokes transpire over multiple games too. And, Oblivion is looked more fondly by Elder Scrolls fans than Skyrim, primarily because it’s side quests are some of the best ever made. The guild quests are second to none and Skyrim felt like GTA V to me. Tons of improvements in many things, but ultimately felt a little step backwards. I have a nasty habit of rarely playing back games after once beating them. My favorite RPGs, mainly because they’re so long, keep me away. I haven’t played Ths Witcher 3 since I beat the Blood & Wine dlc, but I keep wanting to start from the very beginning. My backlog keeps growing though.
I love that "Who Done It?" was the #1 quest on this list. As soon as the video started it was the first quest that came to my mind. It's the one quest that I think back on whenever Oblivion gets brought up. Arguably my favorite quest of any game that I've ever played. Even after all these years
@@brendanrigley3025 No you didnt really explain it. You just said you wish you never played it. Witch is funny to say if you like the game. I love it too and I am very glad that I played it. Why would I not want to have played it when I enjoyed it? Just doesnt make sense.
@@brendanrigley3025 Dude, you literally just said that you wish you never played it. Than you said how good it is and thats it. This explains NOTHING. If I love something I want to experience it and dont wish that I didnt. I only do that with things I hate.
Similarly to WoW, Guild Wars 2 sneaks in a few really amazing quests. Overall, side quests design is something game struggles with, but the quest to crafting the legendary bow Chuka and Champawat starts with you hunting two giant tigers across the world map. You eventually slay them and come across their three cubs that they were trying to protect. Now you as the player have to find a new home for these cubs and raise them yourself to atone for your misdeed. This actually involves you getting the ability to equip each of the cubs to your back and travel the world doing other missions and completing objectives, culminating in you being able to craft the legendary bow, a weapon that fires spectral tigers as its ammunition. Best quest in the game by far.
In Oblivion last quest of thieves' guild is pretty cool too with everything you collected during previous quests being used, scale of the heist, what you steal, etc..
A Dish Best Served Cold in Vampire Masquerade: Bloodlines was pretty slick. Options like using Dementation or just being a Nosferatu made it very memorable. I really enjoyed thia video.
I really enjoy The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask Romani Mask Quest Chain. In general, I love the mask side quests in Majora's Mask, but The Romani Ranch one is just really well done and feels very familial and satisfying.
Me replaying The Witcher 3 over and over and over again. I finally noticed that one of the NPCs actually says to us and the Real Murderer. That they hadn't aged a day. It's SUPER subtle, you won't notice it if your skipping everything or focusing on something else. Love it 🤟🏾🤟🏾🤟🏾
Falcon, it can't be easy to come up with new "top 10" videos as frequently as you do AND make them so consistently entertaining. Keep up the good work, man. I appreciate you.
Another cool mission was I’m Actually Valhalla, (even tho it is a main story mission) when u have to choose Somas traitor after following clues and dialogues. And u def can choose the wrong one n it will effect the game.
HAH as soon as you started talking about the painting quest i started thinking about how the murder party quest is not only my favorite quest in oblivion, but my favorite quest in any game ever. i literally always keep a save file right before entering the door just so i can door the quest whenever i feel like it. sometimes i will literally get bored while playing another game, go do the murder party, and then go back to my other game refreshed. absolutely love that quest.
I did it without even meaning to! Played as a pyromancer, had that shortcut open already, and was in the covenant. Only ever looked up guides for bosses, so, seeing that I'd accidentally done something others had to look up how to do was a fun feeling. Maybe they did it on purpose- there's some symbolism I could see in having an Agent of Chaos be the most likely to team up with the Sun Knight at the end
Woah for the first time in my life, the number one I thought of turned out to be the number one of the video! After all these years, this quest is still one of my all time favorites.
I think if Downpour was technically competing it woudlld have been recieved better. It was my favourite since 4, I played console releases but the vita. Anyway: The Beating Heart quest in that game was one of the most terrifying experiences I have ever had.
one of my favorite quests comes from one of the best rpg''s out there: kingdom come: deliverence - where you go drinking with the priest and the next morning you have to do the sermon at the church because the priest is too drunk
I'm glad the Anju's Anguish quest was included it's one of my favorite side quests in gaming. It always feel like there's a large stake in it and I like how it takes multiple days in-game. I always leave it for last whenever I'm replaying Majora's Mask so I can stop the moon moments after completing the quest, just to feel there's another personal stake for me besides saving the world. But that's just me haha
If I could choose one game to erase from my memory so I could play it fresh and blind again, it would WITHOUT A DOUBT be Witcher 3 Wild Hunt.. What a brilliant game.
I remember when i was a kid and got to the kafe and ange side quest, oh man. At that point i played video games because they were fun and entertaining, but that quest hit me on a different emotional level that i hadn't felt until that point, it made me realize that "holy s***, this isn't just a video game, this is f****** art"
I have upwards of 700 hours on Oblivion, and no one can convince me it is a bad game. Upon replays you begin to see patterns in gameplay, but there is rarely a game that doesn't do that. The missions mentioned but also The Dark Brotherhood missions and the Sheogorath flaming dogs quest are why that game is so great. It doesn't stand up to some titles today I suppose, but some titles need to be judged in context of age. Oblivion does a lot right. As for Witcher 3, I'm a rookie. Just started it last month, and I could see you guys having to do an entire list just on great stories in the game. I love that they use letters, books, and other written materials to really breathe life into the side quests. Such a good game.
I cant get over Kingdom Comes "Mysterious Ways" where u have to preach in the church. Its all around soo funny quest that I was crying from laughter and you have so many dialogue options that is crazy ....
If you save Solaire (you should) you can summon him for the final boss Gwyn. And basically overcome everything on the game together. That's the happy ending for me.
i LOVE a night to remember but i always think i'm the only one lol. the first time i played skyrim, i triggered that quest well before i made it to markarth, so it was really disorienting to "wake up" on the complete opposite side of the map. glad to see it included here!
Knights of the old republic 2 had some solid side quest. Particularly the quest where you can make your companion atton a jedi. Had a serious dark side to the character i wasn't expecting
My most memorable and favorite side quest was the Witcher 3 one in Skellige, with the monk who'd taken a vow of silence. You need to irritate him into yelling at you, and the payoff is incredible because it's so funny, even for such a short quest.
Just finished Carnal Sins the other day. When i saw the thumbnail i immediately knew that quest would be on this list. Amazing quest in an amazing game
The WoW quest was actually done first in Dragon Quest 3. You go to a kingdom, beat the bad guy, and the king is like "wow you should be the king!" Then you become king, and all that happens is that heroes come up ask for quests. You can't leave town, so then you go to an underground bar, where you have to get the former king off his butt and have him take back over.
I did the skyline quest at exactly level 14. I had none of the locations unlocked and waking up I was on the opposite side of the map id never even seen. Most memorable quest ive ever done in gaming.
alfred of the vile bloods is my favourite quest line in any game. followed by the knights of catalina and patches quests in demons souls, bloodborne, dark souls and dark souls 3. from soft has pretty much ruined all other games for me :(
Cyberpunk's "main" side quests are f*cking amazing (i.e. the "character" side quests, such as Judy's quests, Kerry's quests, etc.) and are absolutely on TW3 level quality. The issue is there's not a whole lot of them. However, one of River's side quests, The Hunt, absolutely blows everything out the water as it's a genius murder mystery kind of mission with twists that make you literally sick in the guts. It's a masterpiece.
My favorite side quest is in ac Odyssey wich you have to complete multiple funny quests and help some people in order to get their medals and after you get the medals you can fight against the minotaur boss that is in the side quest, it is an hard and funny quest
I think the Aiden Pearce Side quest from Watchdogs 2 is pretty awesome because it's a wicked Easter egg and even finding the quest is hidden you'll absolutely miss it.

@@brendanrigley3025 No you didnt really explain it. You just said you wish you never played it. Witch is funny to say if you like the game. I love it too and I am very glad that I played it. Why would I not want to have played it when I enjoyed it? Just doesnt make sense.
@@Marquis-Sade definitely did explain, I’m not gonna bother doing it a second time
@@brendanrigley3025 Dude, you literally just said that you wish you never played it. Than you said how good it is and thats it.
This explains NOTHING. If I love something I want to experience it and dont wish that I didnt. I only do that with things I hate.
Actually, cyberpunk has lots of interesting side quests, but the bugs buried all the good thing from cyberpunk
That quest with River was something that game needed more of.
pyramid song was a great quest imo
Honestly the questline for your relationship with Panam is one of the greatest written videogame sequences I've ever played.
My favorite part about Shooting Face McShooty is the quick "thank you" you hear as you do it.
Similarly to WoW, Guild Wars 2 sneaks in a few really amazing quests. Overall, side quests design is something game struggles with, but the quest to crafting the legendary bow Chuka and Champawat starts with you hunting two giant tigers across the world map. You eventually slay them and come across their three cubs that they were trying to protect. Now you as the player have to find a new home for these cubs and raise them yourself to atone for your misdeed. This actually involves you getting the ability to equip each of the cubs to your back and travel the world doing other missions and completing objectives, culminating in you being able to craft the legendary bow, a weapon that fires spectral tigers as its ammunition.
Best quest in the game by far.
In Oblivion last quest of thieves' guild is pretty cool too with everything you collected during previous quests being used, scale of the heist, what you steal, etc..
Fallout 2: pocket goldwatch in Modoc
A Dish Best Served Cold in Vampire Masquerade: Bloodlines was pretty slick. Options like using Dementation or just being a Nosferatu made it very memorable.
I really enjoyed thia video.
The wedding quest from Majora's Mask is the best one on the list, in my opinion. Holy cow, what an amazing game!!!
I really enjoy The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask Romani Mask Quest Chain. In general, I love the mask side quests in Majora's Mask, but The Romani Ranch one is just really well done and feels very familial and satisfying.
If you manage to save Solaire in Lost Izalith, he actually goes on to link the flame in his own world, truly finding his own sun in the end \[T]/
🤙🏽
Me replaying The Witcher 3 over and over and over again. I finally noticed that one of the NPCs actually says to us and the Real Murderer. That they hadn't aged a day. It's SUPER subtle, you won't notice it if your skipping everything or focusing on something else. Love it 🤟🏾🤟🏾🤟🏾
Falcon, it can't be easy to come up with new "top 10" videos as frequently as you do AND make them so consistently entertaining. Keep up the good work, man. I appreciate you.
Another cool mission was I’m Actually Valhalla, (even tho it is a main story mission) when u have to choose Somas traitor after following clues and dialogues. And u def can choose the wrong one n it will effect the game.
i picked wrong the first time bc i thought that it was WAY to obvious for it to be him with the mountain peek thing, but nooo
Valhalla has surprisingly cool missions.
The way he calls Dandelion makes me cry in pain
HAH as soon as you started talking about the painting quest i started thinking about how the murder party quest is not only my favorite quest in oblivion, but my favorite quest in any game ever. i literally always keep a save file right before entering the door just so i can door the quest whenever i feel like it. sometimes i will literally get bored while playing another game, go do the murder party, and then go back to my other game refreshed. absolutely love that quest.
If you save Solaire, you can summon him later in the final boss fight against Gwyn. PRAISE THE SUN \ [T] /
I did it without even meaning to! Played as a pyromancer, had that shortcut open already, and was in the covenant. Only ever looked up guides for bosses, so, seeing that I'd accidentally done something others had to look up how to do was a fun feeling. Maybe they did it on purpose- there's some symbolism I could see in having an Agent of Chaos be the most likely to team up with the Sun Knight at the end
Killing Solaire is a major sin that can never be absolved. PRAISE THE SUN!!!
Cyberpunk 2077 The Hunt sidequest was amazing!
I still think the best quest in witcher 3 is the one where your horse takes charge of the mission and you are just his support
Woah for the first time in my life, the number one I thought of turned out to be the number one of the video! After all these years, this quest is still one of my all time favorites.
I think if Downpour was technically competing it woudlld have been recieved better.
It was my favourite since 4, I played console releases but the vita.
Anyway: The Beating Heart quest in that game was one of the most terrifying experiences I have ever had.
one of my favorite quests comes from one of the best rpg''s out there: kingdom come: deliverence - where you go drinking with the priest and the next morning you have to do the sermon at the church because the priest is too drunk
The AC Valhalla side quest about getting the guy who stinks to wash was hilarious
I'm glad the Anju's Anguish quest was included it's one of my favorite side quests in gaming. It always feel like there's a large stake in it and I like how it takes multiple days in-game. I always leave it for last whenever I'm replaying Majora's Mask so I can stop the moon moments after completing the quest, just to feel there's another personal stake for me besides saving the world. But that's just me haha
I don't think you dug nearly deeply enough into Welcome to the Machine. Might be my favorite RPG quest ever.
If I could choose one game to erase from my memory so I could play it fresh and blind again, it would WITHOUT A DOUBT be Witcher 3 Wild Hunt.. What a brilliant game.
loved Who dunit? from Oblivion and Carnal Sins from W3; amazing quests. I wish more games put that much thought and effort into their narratives
Face McShooty has like 5 full minutes of dialogue too so that's awesome as well!!
I remember when i was a kid and got to the kafe and ange side quest, oh man. At that point i played video games because they were fun and entertaining, but that quest hit me on a different emotional level that i hadn't felt until that point, it made me realize that "holy s***, this isn't just a video game, this is f****** art"
I have upwards of 700 hours on Oblivion, and no one can convince me it is a bad game. Upon replays you begin to see patterns in gameplay, but there is rarely a game that doesn't do that. The missions mentioned but also The Dark Brotherhood missions and the Sheogorath flaming dogs quest are why that game is so great. It doesn't stand up to some titles today I suppose, but some titles need to be judged in context of age. Oblivion does a lot right.
As for Witcher 3, I'm a rookie. Just started it last month, and I could see you guys having to do an entire list just on great stories in the game. I love that they use letters, books, and other written materials to really breathe life into the side quests. Such a good game.
the witcher 3s storytelling is just insane
The settings makes it even better for me. I think it's a perfectly made universe
I cant get over Kingdom Comes "Mysterious Ways" where u have to preach in the church. Its all around soo funny quest that I was crying from laughter and you have so many dialogue options that is crazy ....
Loved playing Oblivion when it first came out. Still play every now and then
If you save Solaire (you should) you can summon him for the final boss Gwyn. And basically overcome everything on the game together. That's the happy ending for me.
i LOVE a night to remember but i always think i'm the only one lol. the first time i played skyrim, i triggered that quest well before i made it to markarth, so it was really disorienting to "wake up" on the complete opposite side of the map. glad to see it included here!
Shooting the dude in the face and getting a " thank you" is pure gold
The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings, the Hung Over mission, kinda similar to number 4, except you can get Geralt a cool tattoo
Yes, and that tattoo carries over to Witcher 3 if you chose to import data from W2 when you start W3.
“A crack in the slab” dishonored 2
Ok, apparently I missed SO MANY quest in The Witcher 3.
Good list, BUT bloody baron witcher 3?
I punched Witcher 3’s body collector SO HARD
Knights of the old republic 2 had some solid side quest. Particularly the quest where you can make your companion atton a jedi. Had a serious dark side to the character i wasn't expecting
My most memorable and favorite side quest was the Witcher 3 one in Skellige, with the monk who'd taken a vow of silence. You need to irritate him into yelling at you, and the payoff is incredible because it's so funny, even for such a short quest.
haha you do a painting quest in tw3 too
You messed up telling that Solaire quest hahah
i just started playing oblivion for the first time, gotta say its fantastic, small but fantastic. the side quests feel really unique aswell.
My pick would be Family Values from AC Odyssey, it ties in really well with Oedipus Rex
Bloody Baron will forever be one of my favorite quests ina video game ever
Just finished Carnal Sins the other day. When i saw the thumbnail i immediately knew that quest would be on this list. Amazing quest in an amazing game
haa nice
Majora's Mask is one big side quest.
The WoW quest was actually done first in Dragon Quest 3. You go to a kingdom, beat the bad guy, and the king is like "wow you should be the king!" Then you become king, and all that happens is that heroes come up ask for quests. You can't leave town, so then you go to an underground bar, where you have to get the former king off his butt and have him take back over.
the whole time i was thinking "wheres that fancy stealthy murderer mission from oblivion" i love that game so much. so much skooma.
I can’t believe the Bloody Barron wasn’t mentioned when you mentioned the Witcher.
Probably because it’s extremely over mentioned
Oblivion could have taken 3 spots on this list IMO
The 2missions picked are awesome but I would add the Ultimate Heist also
I just started playing Oblivion again after many years and am loving it. Thanks for the sneak peaks! :)
I fondly remember "Lady Boyle's Last Party" from Dishonored. So good.
A Night To Remember is one of my favorite quests in Skyrim because it reminded me of The Hangover.
The blood and dust quest follow up questline, with the "rhalata", in Enderal is also a gem among good quests.
I did the skyline quest at exactly level 14. I had none of the locations unlocked and waking up I was on the opposite side of the map id never even seen. Most memorable quest ive ever done in gaming.
Kingdom Come Deliverance, the Priest Speech quest, seriously.
If you dont plan to play it, look for a video.
"...takes place in a casino, which gives it a really unique atmosphere..." in a game that entirely takes place in Las Vegas.
Witcher 3: basically every main and secondary quest
alfred of the vile bloods is my favourite quest line in any game. followed by the knights of catalina and patches quests in demons souls, bloodborne, dark souls and dark souls 3. from soft has pretty much ruined all other games for me :(
Solaire and Siegfried are my spirit animals. I will never forget them
Literally just played the Cardinal sins quest in the Witcher 3 yesterday
Cyberpunk's "main" side quests are f*cking amazing (i.e. the "character" side quests, such as Judy's quests, Kerry's quests, etc.) and are absolutely on TW3 level quality. The issue is there's not a whole lot of them. However, one of River's side quests, The Hunt, absolutely blows everything out the water as it's a genius murder mystery kind of mission with twists that make you literally sick in the guts. It's a masterpiece.
My favorite side quest is in ac Odyssey wich you have to complete multiple funny quests and help some people in order to get their medals and after you get the medals you can fight against the minotaur boss that is in the side quest, it is an hard and funny quest
Laziest thumbnail award goes to…
I think the Aiden Pearce Side quest from Watchdogs 2 is pretty awesome because it's a wicked Easter egg and even finding the quest is hidden you'll absolutely miss it.
