I actually think quests should be done that way. It does work to make more natural conversations. Imagine if you talked that way to a buddy of yours:

Jim: Did you see the superbowl?
Joe: Yes I saw the superbowl.
Jim: Did you see that touchdown?
Joe: Yes I saw that touchdown.
Jim: Did you see the extra special half time performance with Janet Jackson and Justin Timberlake?
Joe: Yes I saw the extra special half time performance with Janet Jackson and Justin Timberlake/

No one talks like that.
