    The Imperial City quest line. The Drake of Blades is a very well written and acted character.
    RIP Bosmer Nation. 4/4/14 - 2/25/19.

    The whole Reaper's March questline. Grabbed my heart, made me cry, was absolutely AMAZING. Of course, yes, I love Khajiit.... but.... no I don't love AD in general.

    Followed closely by the Elseweyr questlines (excepting that undead dragon that I had to have friends help me kill.... and I haven't got to the dragon boss yet, what's his name, can't remember - but I'm expecting to never get through it....)

    My favorite quest line is Skyrim and the Reach. Took me back to the TES Skyrim days.

    Most memorable is 'Quieting a Heart' in Stonefalls. No matter what I just can't seem to forget that one. Really sticks with you.
    Second memorable is 'The Lost Scout's Report' in Blackreach. Don't eat the mushrooms.

    I can't say for quest as here and there i still find side quests i like, but for zone in general my favorite is Clockwork because all that steampunk feeling, closely followed by Summerset.

    Northern Elsweyr on magica character you stay on entrance stairs with good HoT and shield spell, on Southern Elsweyr ping definitely would be a problem...

    Eh, I have mag characters, but my mains are stamdens. And yeah.... high ping is going to make the last boss unworkable for me. Thanks for the info, but I already had it pegged just from what friends had said.

    A few are quite memorable to me:

    Wrothgar questlines are hands-down some of the best written. So many memorable characters come from there. The villains' motivations are easily understood and make sense instead of them being generic and obtuse (unlike a certain king in Western Skyrim). The changing dynamic between the player and characters, power struggles between the clans and the king, and seeing Orsinium actually grow and change as you progress. It was a nice touch to have Zhasim and Winks return in Southern Elsweyr since I always wondered where they ended up afterwards.

    Clockwork City was another one. We got to explore a place that was largely alien compared to what little we had seen before in other titles, and I think that is why it turned out so good. Even if Sotha Sil remains a mysterious character, there was some character building there which we all craved. There were some explosive plot reveals, and of course everyone's most favorite badass in all of Tamriel, Divayth Fir. Couldn't forget Proctor Luciana Pullo, especially because of that choice near the end of the questline. I even thought it interesting that they included the Blackfeather Court for this quest since they were only minor characters in a public dungeon from the base zones before that.

    Stormhaven main questline felt like heavy to me. The mystery leading into a Daedric plot to spoil the alliance between King Emeric and King Fahara'jad, then having the player leverage the choice between a knight's honor and the stability of the alliance was a seriously great story.

    Reaper's March main questline was one of the saddest, but very good. I still hate having to make that choice, but damn is it memorable.

    I wish I could do the Wrothgar quest line. But I can't get by the first "mini boss" whatever his name is. My ping means that no matter what I try.... I'm dead in about a minute.

    Chiaroscuro Crossroads - the objective quest in Black Heights, Southern Elsweyr.

    Interesting, compelling and feels like an Elder Scrolls story. High quality writing. I'd love to know who was responsible for it!

    I'd recommend anyone who likes story check it out.

    Oh yeah, that one was really good! Without spoilers, I wished they could find a solution to allow us to see the consequence of our ultimate decision in person during the Year of the Dragon. I wonder if we ever will...

    Oh, I'm with you there! I wanted that SO much.... Because.... you just don't know when you choose, what the end result will do or be....

    I - really - hate not knowing. And yes.... I've done both versions, one on my main PC NA account, and the other one on my second account. So far, I haven't seen anything change.... but of course that's a given with MMOs.

    Still gripes me though. We should get instanced areas so we see the results of our decisions.

    That one time I had to either choose to free a boy's soul or put it into a Flesh Golem. When making my decision, I talked with everyone about what they would do, and thought I could talk to the Flesh Golem... then I accidentally trapped the boy inside it.

    I really liked the Markath main quest (Graymoor was not so brilliant) and CWC. Otherwise, one of the most memorable stories is the one about Sun-in-Shadow.

    That one in orsinium involving a khajiit raised by orcs. Liked where he was trying to imitate the normal khajiit accent.

    The gay Bosmer/Khajiit couple in Northern Elsweyr trying to mix Bosmer rotmeth with Khajiiti moon-sugar to appeal to the local market. Hilarious :-)

    For me it's hands down Southern Elsweyr questline. Because I absolutely love dragons, and actually having a 'good' dragon ally, being able to talk to a dragon, being able to make 107665331671 awesome screenshots of dragons...made me squeeeeeee with delight like a little girl really :)

    There's a sidequest in Alik'r where a man tells you a story. It's been my favorite since I first did years ago. It's just so unlike anything else in the game. It is great for immersion for that zone and it reminds me of how I loved doing chill zone PVE in this game before the Alik'r was just a dolmen grind zone and the community wasn't just all about grinding, cheesing, bots and treating other players like transactions rather than human being.
    PC-NA since 2015. Tired and unimpressed.
