Missions, Tasks, and Objectives

Recommended Posts

I was having a discussion with a friend the other day regarding the way objectives are handled in games. While games have come quite a ways, for the most part the objectives haven't changed all that much. I was hoping this thread could be a place to discuss unique objectives and missions, as well as a place to bounce ideas off one another.

I'll start off with a mission in the original mass effect called "I remember me" where you are asked to talk down and eventually disarm someone currently attemptng to commit suicide.

Borderlands 2 has a quest called "Shoot Me In The Face". Guess what you do to the questgiver.

 

Borderlands uses a slightly more sophisticated quest mechanic where some objectives can be marked as fulfilled, and the mission fails if those objectives are no longer true. Shoot Me In The Face uses this to ensure that the questgiver is not shot in the chest, legs or arms.
