Hey /tg/entlemen. I'm trying to look at better systems to generate quests because thats my favorite part in games. I've been trying out graph grammars because I seem to be able to do cool things like connect cause and effect and narrative structure by linking together the world state.I've made some toy generators based off the supposed 7 quests types. I was wondering if you would let me know your favorite quests you've experienced and what really made it stand out for you . Was it complex branching structures and player freedom, how it tied to the narrative, interesting novelty ?Thanks so much
Interesting!The favourite ive ever run was >your bank is insolvent. Break in and recover as much of your money as you can before the chairman escapes with it in his private helicopter>you can go to any floor you like in any order, but you dont nesessarily know what you'll findGreat little one-shot. It had hidden timers, secret floors, vampire lawyers, the works. My favourite to play? I remember a simple siege defence setup. I was a DPS monster in that game, it's amazingly satisfying to flip the roles and sally forth so hard the attackers have to pull back and countercharge to save their siege engines
>>98218958Ok that's really cool. If I were to ask what the best parts about it were, all of the extra features that you mentioned, like the hidden timers, etc and the floor freedom ?Would I also be correct in saying that the quest itself felt dense because of all these extra mechanics? My personal favorite was the Dark Brotherhood Oblivion quest, where you needed to murder everyone inside of the mansion. I particularly liked it because it felt like I had player agency to choose specific things. There was a good narrative reason that everyone was there and each of the NPCs felt like they had their own individual being. It was really cool for choosing the different sequences of events that could solve it, like getting the different NPCs to kill each other instead of you having to do it.
