>Why? With new quests involved in the game, I feel the challenge and excitement of the game would be increased even more so than it is now because of these factors: new areas to explore, new quest rewards, and new challenges.
Because I gotta tell ya, I hate the idea of mandatory quests. The worst\best example would be D2 act 3. In Hellfire, the scroll "quest" needed to access the Crypt. Can't enter the Crypt without exposing your eyeballs to the ugly colours, and even uglier looking monsters in the Hive. And by ugly I don't mean challenging or tough. I mean fell down the ugly tree, and hit every branch on the way type of visual appeal.
Though I certainly wouldn't mind seeing a modder trying to ressurrect Tremaine's quest.
