10 Video Game Side-Quests That Were Better Than The Main Story

9. Passing Judgement - Dragon Age: Inquisition

Inquisition was a big swirling mess of story-lines, to the point that recalling the main events of the story can be a little difficult. So, it isn't that hard to pick out the shining side-quest moments that stand out against the backdrop of the main story maelstrom.

Putting you in the shoes of a King, you get to pass judgement on various criminals and major antagonists in the game, during several side-quests. It's proper full on Game of Thrones style stuff and is easily the most cathartic memorable moment in the game.

Being able to order someone's head to be chopped off or for them to be kept in a cage suspended above the castle was a lot of fun, and made the role-playing aspects of the game much stronger.

Besides, we've all had the fantasy of playing the ruthless King murdering his subjects... haven't we?

I like video games, writing and writing about video games. Expect sarcasm and the dry wit of a Brit. And the occasional rant of a unhappy Scot. You know... the usual.
