* ''VideoGame/DragonAge2'' has elements of this. The protagonist and their family are refugees in the city of Kirkwall, simply trying to make their way in the world for most of the game. Over time, as the main character becomes more important and powerful within the city, a main story arc does emerge from the big world-shaking events you sometimes have to deal with, but the bulk of the story is spent on subplots and side adventures.

A traditional picaresque is often a ShaggyDogStory and/or has a RandomEventsPlot. Elements of the picaresque frequently show up in {{Cyberpunk}} stories. The plots are often episodic, and there's very little in the vein of a main quest narrative, and as such most picaresque narratives usually have a few stock characters who weave in and weave out.

Spanish-speakers feel it's more an inversion[[note]]They note that as a hidalgo and aristocrat, Don Quixote/Alonso Quijano is not a typical picaresque character who comes from the low-orders. They also note that Don Quixote has an idealistic view and goal, he's out to help the innocents and defend the weak as a knight should, rather than con and cheat to survive. More or less the quest of Don Quixote is to try and remain idealistic, or insanely so, while the world grows more roguish, more cruel, and sadistic as the plot goes on[[/note]].
