While a multitude of side missions can be found in basically any game these days, it’s not the same as having the best side quests. There are certain games that, perhaps not as popular or vast, have better side missions for one to engage in. Since gamers prefer different genres, this list includes titles of varying sty
Side activities in RDR2 come in many flavors, ranging from hunting for rare animals to bounty hunting for the local authorities, to planning the perfect bank heists, and everything in between. Every quest feels like it's a natural part of the world and not something added to the game just to pad the runtime, a boast very few games can m
One can also unlock abilities like underwater breathing, fights against mythological creatures, and complete synchronization. The RPG elements allow for multiple scenarios, meaning players can mold gameplay according to their preferences. The satisfaction comes from fully completing the plot lines of every character the player meets and uncovering every location in the Greek wo
While New Vegas ’s number of side missions might pale in comparison to later entries in the series, the levels here have more quality behind them. Thanks to the sandbox-style gameplay, the player can truly see the post-apocalyptic world in these side que
The trick here is to hop from cover to cover and try not to stay out in the open for long. Players who leave themselves vulnerable will wind up getting overwhelmed by the sheer amount of enemies. It's probably a good idea to use a repeater or a couple of pistols if engaging the enemies up close. Players can also shoot from a distance with a rifle to pick off some a fair amount of enemies before coming in close to finish off the straggl
With the entire Caribbean to explore, it’s easy to see why this game delivers in side missions. These are abundant in quantity, but also deliver in execution. Stuff like hunting whales and sharks, fighting death ships, and discovering crypts of the Isu civilization are incredible to play thro
When a game is built with the intention to explore, there’s no question about side missions coming into play. Breath of the Wild is also among the games with the most side quests to be found. In fact, the game encourages players to roam freely and do their own th
Although the Guarma chapter only serves as some kind of filler in Arthur's journey, it does deserve better. This chapter exposed the real menace of the gang's leader, Dutch Van der Linde, and his narcissistic, paranoia, and sadistic nature. It's proven when he and Arthur go into a cave to meet a shady elderly woman, to reveal the hidden path to Aguasdulces in their quest of rescuing Jav
Elden Ring doesn't have side quests in the traditional way that an open-world RPG might. In fact, there's no journal, no quest log, and no way to track what exactly the player has to do at any given time. From the start of Elden Ring players are told to seek the eponymous Elden Ring so that they might become Elden L
Annesburg at first glance seems like a town that is unimportant to the grand narrative of Arthur Morgan's path to redemption. As the indie game Music enters its final hours you find that it begins to morph into a place where Arthur faces his change in morality and personal
On a mission titled Savagery Unleashed from the Guarma chapter, Arthur was trying to save Guarman workers from getting hanged before he was knocked unconscious by Angel, his captor, and Alberto Fussar's lead inquisitor. Then, he woke up with his hands tied but managed to set himself free while Angel was occupied with Leon and Bapti
One of the biggest strengths of Red Dead Redemption 2's story is that there isn't really a sense of urgency to see Arthur's story to its end. Story missions typically revolve around a major heist or event that Dutch Van Der Linde's gang needs to prepare for, and Arthur is given the freedom to just enjoy the countryside in the meantime. As a benefit, engaging in the game's many side quests doesn't feel out of character, allowing players to really enjoy what the world has to of
One of the coolest and most often-overlooked missions is "A Bright Bouncing Boy," which can be started once players reach Saint Denis. There, just north of the Horse Stable on the edge of town, players will encounter a man named Marko Dragic. The inventor is being called a fraud by some strangers and enlists Arthur's help to prove them wrong, roping players into a fun mini-game where they must pilot a remote-controlled b
Every Daedric Prince has a side quest, towns and cities are bustling with people wanting the Dragonborn's help, and that's not even mentioning the number of guilds and organizations players can join like the Companions or the College of Winterhold. For a game as well-known as Skyrim , it still surprises even the most hardcore f
'A Test of Faith' is a Stranger mission where players encounter Deborah MacGuinness, an amateur paleontologist, in The Heartlands, New Hanover. She'll ask players to mail the coordinates of 30 dinosaur bones they come across for a cash reward in ret
