10 Best RPG Quests That DON'T Involve Combat

10. “The Book of Love” (The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim)

Skyrim is a game where you spend most of your time slicing people with swords, smiting them with spells, and, most likely, stealth arching them from the shadows. Still, there's one quest that comes with the promise of something else entirely - that being love. 

"The Book of Love" begins in Riften's Temple of Mara, a worshipping place for the divine Goddess of Love. In keeping with that moniker, gaining her favour requires you to spread romance across Skyrim, with a collection of relationship-fixing tasks making up the quest. 

The first of these tasks sends you to Ivarstead to assist a young woman whose father disapproves of her lover, the second has you help a shy conjurer in Markath confess his feelings to the woman he likes, and the last centres on reuniting a husband and wife in the afterlife. Overall, the quest is full of cute interactions and allows for charming problem-solving using only dialogue and choices. 

It's nice to know that the Dragonborn has time in their schedule to become a cosmic matchmaker. It's not all about killing dragons, you know.
