I have been going through all the side quests and dungeons lately rather than doing exp farm and it's been quite enjoyable.

A lot of these quests are chained and although the characters are very minor, their dialogues are well made and their actions are all quite relatable.

Some characters featured in one quest might show up changed or dead in another quest. A lot of references to things happened in D3 and D2, here are the most memorable ones without spoiling anything story related:

  • There is a quest that shows the background of the main trailer and it looked great
  • A certain main supporting character in D3 is featured in a long quest chain which I thoroughly enjoyed the dialogues of.
  • The character you help in the swamp had a few twists in his story and an interesting ending.

A few other hidden gems as well among other quests and hope you guys enjoyed them as much as I did.

I’m still rather early on, but I agree. The exorcism side quests are my favorites so far. They didn’t shy away from meaningfully impacting a main hub, which I appreciated, and you feel like you’re doing something meaningful versus a simple exchange of time for experience/gold. It must’ve been a complete pain in the ass to design, though.

I totally agree, and the exorcism quests actually involves another quest giver from another town, and you can feel the weight of different character's approach to the world and feel their impacts. Some quests also involve referring to characters from the main quest, and have different dialogues depending on how far you progressed the main quests as well, which also wouldve involved some effort to include.
