And even with Skyrim, you can stick to the more simple of plot that your PCs want to follow. Even if its "I know this Daedric artifact is here" I'll go "sure, explain to my why your character know that, and if you want to travel there and try to do the quest, I'm game"

Just beware seeking out the Daedra.
