In a 'good' role-playing game, the player is never forced to follow a preconceived path. While the player may enjoy the story and feel compelled to see it through to the end, the player's primary objective in playing a role-playing game is to live an alternate life in which they get to write their own narrative. In role-playing games, the player's motivation isn't typically provided by the events of the story, no matter how well written or engaging. Players are moved serially from plot-point to plot-point along a track of (hopefully) well-orchestrated interactive events punctuated by cinematic interludes in which the plot is explained and advanced.

Though they do allow me to trade.īoth of these problems though mysteriously dissapear the moment I load an older save but the moment I start making progress in the game I have to backtrack all the way to said old save to resolve this issue. As I was playing classic Skyrim with mods I encountered a really odd issue - clicking the map markers that I have discovered on the map doesn't do anything and as a result I can't fast travel.Īlso whenever I try to interact with an npc (rent a room/brawl/etc) they don't respond in any way.
