Solved my Skyrim problem and it rocks.
Until someone suggested to turn off the hud, it was too easy to fall into the standard ocd rpg mode while playing. This was a little sad.. as personally.. because of how gorgeous the world is, i actually wanted to play the game more like skyrim, be in a world rather than on a dotted line going for some fapping 100% achievement completion.
So what i've done is, turn off most of the hud, and bought the really shocking ipad map app (poor quality they dont deserve money but its needed for this). As someone suggested.. every time i load up, i think about what quests ive got active, think about the world, look on the map where there's something.. basically decide my own adventure.. memorize (really quickly) the paths on the map, find out what time of day it is to get a compass and away i go. After this, the only thing the in game map is needed for is the yellow circles for multiple phase quest objectives. The rest is via the ipad app.
So very satisfied with this mode of playing. I don't feel like i'm in a on rails bioware story.. its enough to make you feel like you're witching around as a witcher.
I see alot of other threads with people raising issues about CRPG GAMEPLAY problems.. while they all sound fair if you wanted to play a map marker ocd rpg.. well, all i can say is if you want to be a witcher getting a story in a well done believeable world.. after you fix it... that type of game scores a pretty happy 10/10 so far.
