Yes, I did know about the "protected" system. Where exactly do I say/hint that I don't? I re-read all my comments and nowhere do I see that. Please don't put words in my mouth.

I also never said the "casual gamer conspiracy" doesn't exist, I said that I believe "essential" NPCs are not a part of it. Again, words in my mouth.

You can believe that Bethesda changed the NPCs to appease casual gamers if you want, I'm not saying it's wrong. I'm trying to show you that there are other possiblities besides a "casual gamer conspiracy".
