Hmmm, different paths through many quests? I'd agree up to that point. Do most quests need different paths? Wouldn't the vast majority have just one accepted path? Obviously multi-level HQs like the LBQ need multiple paths but does the Initiation HQ? Or does any quest you do for different reasons have a different path? Flexibility is good, complexity isn't. Are these multi-level HQs the norm or the exception?

Probably but I wouldn't want to have to write them up! If your abilities are at a certain level go here, if not go there.
