Maybe the most exciting quest line of the best game of 2008, Oblivion, the Dark Brotherhood quests. Unlike some other quests, such as some fighter s guild quests who make you run the errands and fight instead of retards who cannot finish their own contracts, Dark Brotherhood quests are more focused on the individual, doing the quest. It might be considered basic and simple most of the time as you generally need to remove only one or multiple targets. However the thing that makes it good is the bonuses. Like the assassination mission bonuses there were in Godfather The Game, there are also, prerequisites and basic requisites of fulfilling a contract. You might be asked to do it not inside publicity. Maybe you need to do it inside publicity instead? Or maybe you need to hide it from some and expose to others? Who knows what Lucian Lachance is going to ask of you?

o some examples which our guy, Lucian, wants from us. Well as we all probably know, he observes as we commit our first murder. We get a message on top of our screens, telling something about it. Well then, right after the first time we sleep, our sleep gets interrupted. Lucian is standing right next to our bed. I actually would crap to my pants if such thing happened to me. He starts talking about how he watched us killing that guy we murdered. He says that we might be just the one that they have been looking for. So he asks if we want to be recruited. I, honestly, believed that he would kill me right there at that time if i refused, since he looks discreet, exposing himself to me and letting me live would not be that smart. So i did not try to refuse the offer. This is why i do not know what happens if we refuse. Anyway, i do not think any of you refused it either. So we all get his first quest. Proving our worth to him would need another murder. He gives us a dagger, a crap dagger for that time honestly, and sends us to some inn to kill a civilian. This one, expectedly turns out to be quite an easy assignment. Only thing we need is to be sneaky. Well, after this point, we gain his trust. Then he starts sending us around to kill people. He himself seems to be following orders. These orders are generally not orders given by a superior but a customer, more likely. So, it can be said that Dark Brotherhood is a company of assassination. People come and ask who needs to be destroyed, and we do it. Whatever, we start doing these favours for them, and get paid in advance, with money and experience. There is this quest which really helped me have fun. It is a party, and the invited guests do not know that the host hates them direly and wants them dead. Except for one. Which is you.
