Tons of quests seem to be like filler quests just for experience gaining.
But for me, the few quests I remember are what I call transformational quests. It alters your character tremendously and is fairly difficult to achieve.
The one i remember the most was the Lineage 2 quests to choose your sub class, it was a lot of fun.
Another one on a much lower scale is the Path of exile quests to transform your character into the subspecialty class as well, but not as much.
Any other thoughts?

Enjoyed the Legendary quests in EQ and EQ2.
But one quest that really stands out to me was in Vanguard: SoH.
Had to talk to a wizardy type NPC in a tower, which led to kidnapping various people, and at one stage you kidnap a dwarf, and stuff him in a sack, then throw him off a bridge.
Really have no idea why, but found it really, really funny that you had to throw a dwarf off a bridge in a sack.
We had Empires run by Emperors, we had Kingdoms run by Kings, now we have Countries...
The ones that were the most fun for me were the Darkshire quests in WoW. The story was fantastic.
EQ1, EQ2, SWG, SWTOR, GW, GW2 CoH, CoV, FFXI, WoW, CO, War,TSW and a slew of free trials and beta tests
Personally, the Dreaming Dark series in DDO was one of the better quest lines I ever did, as it linked together several other quest lines.
Mob1: Is that Ungood.. the one who bested Sorjak?
Mob2: Twice.
I have two from recent memory that I can think of and they're both quest chains not single quests.
The first is the Sith Inquisitor class quest chain in SWTOR that had some great and very funny twists and the second is the Wilderking / Wilderqueen chain in the Greenshade zone in ESO that has some feeling behind it and is told very well.

There is one in oblivion where you go to a small backwater town to look for this young woman and uncover the secrets to the town. That's a very good one.

"Will this be the time I get a bear ass? I've outleveled the quest by 9 levels and I still don't have as many as I need, but I'm committed to this epic endeavor and won't stop until I have all 10 bear asses."
Then finally I got all 10 bear asses, turned in the quest and got 0.5% of a level and 3 silver. It was an epic journey I will never forget.
One of my most memorable quests in TSW was the one where I fell asleep and when I woke up I had somehow beaten the quest........It involved NPCs helping in some sort of battle and I slept through the whole thing......
The Bloody Baron quest chain in The Witcher 3. Just... oof.
Warmaster Forgal: My Father was the last of the Dolyak Shaman, and you Monster, will not make me Kneel.
I mean that part hit all the feels when I played through it.
Later, I learned that the Dolyak was one of the Spirits that died fighting Jormag and it just gave the whole thing a much deeper meaning.
I love it when lore intertwines like that
Whenever we ran a dungeon - if someone hadn't run it before they had to go first and make the choices. We enjoyed them that much that having others experience them for the first time was more important than progress or farming. I found every dungeon was pretty neat. As a rogue I had my part to play. . loved it.
