    I really like when side quests are more than just paths to more xp/loot. Actually having them serve a purpose is a nice thing that I don't see enough.

    Kinda just reminds me of the mad max game that Avalanche did before Harry Potter. Sort wish they’d made it more of an rpg instead, maybe added variety with a turn-based combat system since they’re (Ilka) the same devs who made dragon quest 11 and one piece odyssey. Vehicular action combat, turn-based unit combat, and maybe some dramatic turn based bigger tank battles…
