So long as they're limited to the Hildibrand quest chain? Sure. I like the overall tone and mood of the game but I don't want it dragged down by too many silly side quests. It works well for the Hildibrand stuff to be locked away behind a specific quest chain - the people who like it can do it, those who dislike it can avoid it/skip through it.

But I don't want that sort of thing tied to the main story. WoW made that mistake - and ended up with too many silly and over the top quests that detracted from the tone and mood of the overall game.
