quests are too easy

[Seif]

The quest markers on the map are seriously ruining everything I like about questing in general.

I'd love to figure out a route to somewhere or ask me to find something without a timelimit so that I can have a true sense of discovery when a rare nm drops the quest item at a totally random location after years of playing.

Quest markers make all the dialogue useless too and I have no connection to the world as it all boils down to leve-like streamlined nothingness that makes me feel like a vegetable for playing it.

I agree with you, but in order for this to work we need noticeable landmarks/npcs. For example, putting npcs in the middle of nowhere will PITA to find, since everything looks almost identical. The same with npcs in cities, it's like finding a needle in a haystack. Also quest makers are teh evil (same with npc exclamation/question mark).

They aren't as bad as you say they are. It's not like there are fifty exclamation points on the mini map. If you'd rather talk to every npc to get a mission, then by all means do it. You'd prlly go to a website to look up where to get missions from anyways

searching the web is the fun part! the quest markers take the mystery and alot of the exploration out of the game. actualy... can i just get somone who knows the game inside out to sit next to me and tell me what to do? maybe he can hold the controler and press the buttons for me? Thanks
