It kind of works in Elder Scrolls games. You're typically just some random dude getting roped into stuff you barely understand so it makes sense that you don't have much of a sense of urgency. And the main quest usually has parts where you're encouraged to go do other stuff to build up skills and join factions.

It works in Morrowind. When you go to do the main quest, the guy in Balmora says you look like a scrub and to come back when you're not so green. Oblivion immediately tells you to take the amulet somewhere. Skyrim requires main quest progression for a few things like the civil war.
