Some of God of War Ragnarok's best moments are hidden in entirely optional sidequests that you might sail past.

God of War Ragnarok’s main story is memorable, but some of the smaller moments are what have stuck with me most since completing it. I’m not just talking about its moments of quiet, but its optional Favors as well. These sidequests can be entirely ignored, but skipping them is a mistake as they contain some of the game’s best scenes. It’s a trait that God of War Ragnarok shares with The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, one of the best RPGs of the last decade.

More than a side thing Like God of War Ragnarok, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt features a lengthy main story full of memorable characters, set pieces, and boss fights. While those alone would have made it a strong RPG, it’s remembered as an all-time great because of how rich its world is, something that’s reflected in its side content.

An early game Favor called The Weight of Chains sees Kratos, Mimir, and Atreus freeing a giant Lyngbakr sea creature that Mimir imprisoned while working with Odin. They manage to break its chains, but find that it now struggles to move and do what it used to. This sidequest takes a series of somewhat standard combat encounters and puzzles and spins them into critical aspects of a memorable tale.

At its core, The Lost Treasure just tasks Kratos with opening two chests. It’s a simple task that’s still stuck in my mind a week after I’ve beaten the game because it tells a relevant, tragic tale about a father and son who failed to communicate. That attention to detail is what can make a game special, and it’s something that both God of War Ragnarok and The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt have in spades.
