That mission served as a template for a lot of other missions across other BioWare games, even Dragon Age series. Kasumi is also definitely the most powerful character in Mass Effect 2, that's why I always had her in my party, her shadow strike can down almost anything, that and she's pretty funny as well. I didn't expect you to even know about her her at all since she's a dlc character, good on you.

Other favourite 'The Witcher 3' side quest include Carnal Sins and Reason of State (I really hated Radovid and Djikstra.)
    From other games, I loved any quest with Hamish Sinclair in 'Red Dead Redemption 2'. Hamish is such a amiable and well-written man and the relationship between Arthur and Hamish is simply invaluable.

    There is a side quest that’s featured in both Yakuza 0 and Yakuza Kiwami 2 that always hooks me with just how much fun it is: the cabaret club tournament! It goes like this: in Sotenbori, you come into contact with a cabaret club that is really, REALLY down on its luck. All of its business is being stolen by a group of clubs working together, and your job is to reinvigorate this one to drum up new business. This causes you to get challenged by the owner/s of the competition, and if you manage to earn more money than them in a single night, then you advance to the next round and get a new Platinum level star hostess for your trouble. Ultimately your goal is to become the number 1 club in Sotenbori/Japan, and take down the guys stealing business from other clubs. What makes this sidequest so addictive is a variety of factors. You can customize your Platinum hostesses, you micromanage each of the night’s six tables to ensure that each guest has a great time and spends as much as possible, and you get to up your Platinum girls’ stats in one-on-one conversations. You get some cool rewards and funny scenes, and it’s an excellent way to earn money. There is also the Real Estate sidequest for Kazuma in Y0, but who doesn’t prefer a good party to real estate? You can easily sink hours upon hours into this tournament, and enjoy every second of watching your club literally rain money under a disco ball.
