Favorite and hated quest lines?

[velasquezt43]

In an attempt to post something game related amid the trolling...

What's everyone's favorite and least favorite quest lines?

My favs - The UC Vanguard quest because of the bug hunting and the Freestar Ranger quests because its a straightforward "I'm the Hero!" quest. Just make sure you chose the virus option at the end of the Vanguard quests and not the Aceles or everyone in Constellation will ♥♥♥♥♥ you out.

I hated - The Crimson Fleet quests with all the stealth no-kill quests and that horrible, interminable, godawful quest on the starliner. I think it was such a missed opportunity! Also, I never even tried to continue the Ryujin quests for the same reason. Maybe if I play a 100% stealth character someday.

I don't really have any favorites. The Crucible quest is probably at the top for me, I guess. They're almost all engaging or in the case of some (like putting up space frog posters) amusing.

But I absolutely hate the Nishina quest in the main quest line. Confusion reigned. But at least there were things to kill to alleviate my frustrated aggression.

Honestly?

The best quest line was within the UC Vanguard quest, where you had to visit the UC visitor center and push all the buttons. I really enjoyed this one, the story told was interesting, at least compared to the very bland story of the main- and other side quests.
You had zero loading screens between the buttons.
Sarah didn't interrupted the dialogues, instead, after the dialogue was over, she added her opinion to the story and didn't said anything out-of-context stupid.
For me it was the highlight of Starfield.

Sounds funny? Well, I'm dead serious man.

I would love to see what can be done to expand on the Mantis Theme. Some Modder could do wonderous things with it. Restore the Hideout, Radiant quest lines of rescuing CF, Spacer, Ecliptic Hostages. An alternate line of breaking the Neon Gangs. Foiling the Neon Corps.

Something along the lines of what jayserpa has been doing for Skyrim.

I honestly think Mantis could provide alternate conclusions for a lot of the Ranger/Vanguard quest lines.

Serve as a OUTSIDER.

I really like this idea. The Mantis is very fun.

So you become the Mantis? A Merc for hire from Freestar and UC? I could dig it. Be kinda cool if they require you to use that ship as well. Since we never see Dorian's body, but we can see Leon's body with his final slate, maybe she was watching us the entire time. Succeeding where her son failed. Waiting to induct us as the new Mantis. So after we get the ship and quest done, we go along. Not expecting anything. Then, a message randomly appears from some random event trigger, prompting us to meet Dorian "and bring the ship". She makes us promise to only bring justice to the evil-doers and lets us know we work for nobody, yet everyone. Then, she finally dies, knowing her legacy is finally passed on to a new generation and someone far more ready for the task than her son. Maybe even put in a special "M.A.N.T.I.S." computer on our ships to act as a "bounty mission" provider where people from across the Starfield can ask us for assistance.

On my second play through and I don't bother much with the constellation stuff. I'm having a great time with the side quests. Freestar collective rangers faction is my fav so far, though RI quests were great too.

Favorites: The absurdist ones (like Tourists Go Home)

Least favorites: The excessively frustrating ones (like some in Ryujin requiring the Manipulation skill just to be able move 3 meters before needing to use it again).

Absolute worst: The ones that are hinted but don't actually exist. ("You're telling me that you failed a hit on a high-ranking UC official who is using gangs to try to start Colony War II? Count me in! ... I said, Count me in! ... Hello? ... Is anybody in there? ... Just nod if you can hear me. ... Is there anybody home?" and this took dragging the weapons tester nerd around a bit to discover and immediately... nothing.)

I think my least favorite one out of the ones I’ve done is the Eleos prison resort quest.

That quest is basically: find missing guy > find kidnappers’ hideout > wait for and confront kidnappers > end.

And the kidnappers’ motivation is essentially “we afraid they gonna take our jobs”.

It entirely wastes the whole “can criminals be successfully rehabilitated if given the opportunity, and should we even bother trying?” setup, and the “is the legal murder via bounty system actually better than prison?” question they slide in there.

Only quest line I felt was even a bit intersting was the UC vanguard, the rest? kinda boring, to much talking not enough action for most.

[Redhalo]

That one activity/quest in Cydonia where that ugly little girl has you putting up her frog posters all over the place. Oh how I regret ever talking to that horrible sounding little creature..

Everything feels so forgettable.

Still think the Constant is the silliest one.
They couldn't even be bothered to do a custom ship. Same computers, and tech as everyone else on the bridge, 200 years later.

The fact that you have to argue about, whether a whole planet is enough for the people, and Paradiso is like some rich CEO's wet dream.
Just lazy and out of touch people.

And don't get me started on all the 1980's tech they for some reason have, in a ship that left in 2149.
