The Quest System is a downgrade

The quest system is confusing, not motivating, and just an overall downgrade from tomes.

It's just such a cluttered mess, I have a hard time really understanding what things I am working towards and the relation to the rift is completely disconnected imo and of course, there is no lore now so that's fun heavy eye roll

The tomes motivated me to change my builds and try new things, but the quests are just this weird background thing that I occasionally complete by accident.

You took away an actual game element that at least every now and then motivated people to try a new perk or build. Now, I get quests to do things like cleanse 1000 totems… zzzzz

Suggestion:

  • If tomes were too much work and quests are here to stay, adjust how they are presented.
    • This is probably the biggest one, the interface is just so cluttered.
  • The quests are just boring, spice it up a bit - maybe there are spicy ones and I just have no motivation to dig through the 8 different sections and weird collapsible menus to find them among the "hold W for 10k hours" quests ;-D

k thx byyyeeeeee

    Tomes definitely felt more satisfying to do, but yeah I get the feeling BHVR didn't want to support and do maintenance for all the old challenges.

    I believe they mentioned having extra special challenges along side quests in the near future which would be great. A new set of difficult challenges outside of the regular rift quests would be very welcome.

    I want BHVR to add some actually challenging challenges again so I can test myself. Also really hope they bring back stuff like Orange Glyphs. It is fine if they reset every new rift for maintenance purposes, just give me something interesting to do other than hook survivors x times, or do x amount of gens.
