What is your favorite quest from a mod or game?

My favorite is the dinner sequence in the Left Field Diner from the Fens Sheriff's Department of Fallout 4.

Honorable mention goes to the Dark Steel quests from Interesting NPCs of Skyrim.

For small/medium mod quests "CSEP Loaded Bases"

For big quests, its "Xander's Aid".

With the underlying quest for the items of "South of the Seas-Atoms Storm" a close 2nd. Not because the quest is great but because it forces you to tracve so many miles through the subways and bases of the CoA which is quite the expereince. The Latter quest is high level characters with good gear only. Say Lvl 65+.

When did "quests" become a thing?   

Back in the day the entire game was one big quest, with a myriad of twists and turns.

Never thought of a game as a series of quests - more of a linear storyline - the thing they struggle to do anymore.

------

That said, in the base game (I don't tend to do "quest" mods) the one that struck me as well written was the sequence from Fort Hagen to the end of the Memory Den.   i.e. Act 2 - Quest 1 - Dangerous Minds.    You got emotions from Piper, you got desperation from Valentine, you got the 180 from Doctor Amari once she gets past the thought of what Valentine proposes.   You got the anticipation of possibly finding out the answer to the toughest riddle in the Commonwealth (the location of the Institute).   You got the character learning about the life of Kellogg and the background of the man he killed.   That is good writing IMO.   Then they leave you with the cliffhanger they never acted upon - Valentine speaking to you as Kellogg....

You mean from any game? I'm not a fan of making "best of" lists, but spontaneously what comes to mind is the quest in Baldurs Gate 3, 2nd act in the Temple of Shar (maybe because I like dungeon crawling), or the journey into the underworld in Dragon Age 2.

In Fallout 4 it was for a long time ironically the radiant quests given by the BoS members in Cambridge Police Station. I denied for years to play the "normal" FO4 but used it as base builder and as a survival game (for over 2k hours ...), with various degrees of changes to the whole world. The radiant quests, as dump as they may be, allowed me to find and visit many locations with at least a kind of duty to fulfil behind.

Currently I'm playing Fallout 4 again, as Nora, with the goal to now really play the game as it was meant (except with necessary changes to gameplay of course, by just 200 mods) and end the main quest and then Far Harbor (to which I prefered Nuka World and which I also never ended). And I have to say, after the sad Starfield experience, and when you accept the debatable base FO4 decision of making you a frozen SS with a strong agenda, I really enjoy the main questline of Fallout 4.

For Fallout 4 maybe this one: "Mysteries of the Commonwealth - Chapter One Luxi". I would really like to see more parts.  Also I liked the "Sector V" series, even when the story is a bit crude. For all games perhaps "Kill Strelok", because these few words contain the whole main quest line of STALKER - SoC. (I am aware of the special feature this task has).
