Fetch quests

[StaceyPowers]

Fetch quests, i.e. “Fetch me a bucket,” are pretty much the standard filler for open world games.

They’re repetitious, and a lot of people complain that they’re dull. But I know some people who can’t get enough of them.

Do you love fetch quests or hate them?

While I don't exactly like them, they are useful for beginners to earn some cash to buy some starting gear to help themselves out.

I actually don’t mind fetch quests. Sure, too many can get repetitive and annoying, but I don’t mind a chunk of quests in a game to consist of them personally.

I don't mind a few, too many can get tedious.  I like when they are worked in well and used for world building, like they give you an opportunity to learn about the town you are in or the NPC who assigned it.

Or a grindable quest to make some loot to buy acceptable gear and equipment so that you can survive the initial stages of a game.
