I cannot start a dialogue with anybody at all. When my cursor moves on them, it expands and contracts similar to how it does when you give a follower commands, only I have no follower. I am not sneaking, I am not under some spell. Nothing. Reloading, restarting, etc. does nothing at all.

I am over 100 hours hours in with this character. I swear if this bug screws my game, I will never play the Elder Scrolls again. That is way too much time to waste, no matter how much I love the series.

EDIT: I forgot to mention I am ont he 360.

What platform do you have it on?

Sounds like "Inception".. You should never imagine real places.. Don't mind me as I attempt to portray myself with humor..

Idiot am I. I am on the 360.

No idea what to do about this. The only thing that crosses my mind is either re-load, or play a bit more and see what happens.

When did this happen, do you remember the last thing you did?

Try clearing the game cache and 360 cache....worth a shot

On xbox also. Had a similiar problem with my bow last night. In Dawnstar with a dragon attacking. Could equip the bow, but that was it. Could not shoot it. Saved it in a new slot, and went to the dashboard, and cleared the cache. Got back into the game and it then worked just fine. Try clearing the cache and see if that works.
