For some reason when I have to follow an NPC for a quest the NPC will either stop every few feet and wont move unless I stand directly behind them and walk single file with them or they'll stop completely unless I wait an hour at which point they'll resume course. As this gets quite annoying at times I was wondering if anyone else has been experiencing this problem. As an example of the problem, in Riverwood, when you follow the merchants sister along the path to the begining of the bridge on your way to bleakfalls Barrow she will stop constantly and turn and stare at my character until I stand directly behind her, while other times she will not move at all. A similar problem happens with the NPC you follow after exiting the cave into the world after Helgen is destroyed. For the imperial soldiers path he'll walk normally all the way to Riverwood, but sometimes once he gets to Riverwood he'll stop completely and wont greet his uncle.

The problem persists wether I have mods installed or not. Since I noticed the problem, I have tested with and without mods (When I say without mods I mean I have deleted them all and started a new game to test it) and nothing seems to help. I am currently on version 1.6.

Rejoice!

Another problem with glorious patch 1.6.

Take a ticket, stand in line, and hope that it get's fixed. I'm having a couple of problems with this new "patch" aswell.
