As a player I'm not too keen on running minor errands for the uber-NPC who could do it himself far more easily, but can't be bothered because he's 'too busy'.
My last campaign, I took the opposite approach. King Thongar the quest-giver was old and feeble, the PCs were the kingdom's Big Damn Heroes. If they refused the missions, the bad guys would triumph and the kingdom go down the toilet. And the kingdom was a point of light in a world of ruins and howling wilderness. So the players never had any trouble with their motivation.
And yet another word from our sponsors
