Thats why you can't make a movie. I will use skyrim as an example

If you followed one story line, lets say dovahkiin goes stormcloak, people like LCB and sky above would boycott it. Its kind of impossible, so any movie made must have a plot warp (paarthurnax and blades reconcile, stormcloaks and imperials get along again, thalmor ass get kicked because thats what a hero would do)

The hero also has a set race, gender, skillset and so on so forth. As usual, he will be a nord guy with a big beard and nordy hair, who eventuall gets daedric stuffs and kill alduin by chopping him with a daedric sword after an epic CGI fight

There is mostly a female protagonist as well, for the main protagonist to kiss at the end as his victory celebration

We could have a deuteragonist as the follower, but then that follower has a set face and name.

So, that is too many storyline loopholes and canon violations.
