Esbern is apparently a mute who forgot how to open his door. Why is it i can't ever turn in any of my work with out going over it for errors but stuff like this happens in every major Title on PC. Seriously it's not even 5 hours in the the main storyline and you hit this brick wall. I'm glad this is what I"m going to remember your game for but until it's patched I'm keeping my QQ face on and you can lick the southern side of my sack if you think you can persuade me otherwise.

if you re talking about the sewers in Riften, and he has that huge metal door, it took me like 1-2 minutes until that [censored] opened it! Just dont rage, try moving around, tery opening it, idk why it takes so long

Ive been messing around with it for a few hours. Got him to open it up with console command help but however hes mute through his whole role there after. Making the whole atmosphere of the game go down the toilet. Getting him out is not the problem. Its understanding whats going on after. theres also another bug where he gets caught in a infinite loop of putting a book down once you reach your destination.

I will persuade you otherwise if you use vulgar expressions again or post a spoiler question in the General forum.
