Side Quest


Playing Dragon Age and without getting into details of the game itself. I rather comment on side quest in general. Sure they are fun, some are worthwhile for getting good or rare items while giving you extra XP.

But what I am trying to do is stick to the main story because I know just doing that will put me between 50-60 hrs and I want to finish awakenings and all 9 DLC. So I am looking at alot of hrs in one game and so far I am enjoying it.

But holy moly is my quest log filled to the brim with sidequest. I've been ignoring alot of them that I get through conversation with locals, but every encounter gives me 2-3 sidequest. Its no where near as bad as Oblivion, at once point I totally forgot what I was suppose to be doing in that game because of all the side missions I was doing.

Then the OCD of me takes over and looks at the giant list and have the urge to check them all off as completed. But I can't ..I must stay the course and finish the game as is...if I find I need some extra XP to go up a level or two, then I take a shot at them...but it is taking everything in me to stop what I am doing and clean up the side quest menu.

Side quest, fun, not, waste of time, not worth it, fun to do, enjoyable, adds to the overall experience of the game, what ever your cup of tea......they are a part of most if not all RPG's
