I agree there- only thing I can come up with as an alternative is "go here, do X, come back" kind of quests though. Hard to think of anything else.

Plenty of single-player games with that setup, and party games come to think of it, so it’s well trodden ground at this point.

Translating ‘delivery gameplay’ to an MMO would be interesting. You can still have combat but it’s secondary to ‘get X here, return with Y’
