This game looks and sounds like it has some fun potential and good intentions (they are adamant about having no quest markers or level scaling) but in its current state it's just a hot mess. It's pretty clear that it wasn't well tested, there is very little in-game info about what things actually do (WTF does _____ stat do?) and you can just get stuck in geometry randomly, some chests just don't open, etc.
That said, it looks like they rushing hard to fix a lot of the issues, but this has been a pretty spectacularly bad launch. I mean, the base game doesn't even allow mouse movement which was only added in the most recent patch. I encountered a common bug with PhysX where you get just a blank brown screen with error messages all over it until I manually went to the PhysX site and downloaded it and installed. Pretty inexcusable to not have that packaged with the game.
I was interested in this game from the beginning, and I think it could turn out pretty cool with some work, but holy fuck does it need work. Having played the test version I can't get any Steam patches so the game is pretty much unplayable, but if they do fix it up a bit, it could be a cool open-world style ARPG in the vein of Elder Scrolls/Diablo cross, which there really aren't many of.
Having said all of that, the people whining about lack of quest markers and compass are fucking decline morons. The decline has now become like the human centipede, where people now demand the shit to be fed into their mouths and get butthurt when it isn't there. Sad.

Broken beyond repair, story is generic shit, core mechanics are shit. Combat? Shit. Travelling over the map on foot half of the time? Boring as shit. Looting peoples houses right in front of them? Ridiculous shit. CnC? Non-existent or invisible (and, because of that, shit). Character development? Shit. Kill-loot-sell-equip cycle? Dont kid yourselves.
I dont give a rats ass about the broken camera, the retarded engine, the gazillion bugs, the crappy voice acting. All that is well and fine as long as you deliver a game that is fun and rewarding to play. This plays like Tamagotchi. Gimme back my 15 dolla!
thats like saying some Russians occasionally drink Vodka. Im pretty sure they wrote all the dialogs assuming there will be one, and then didnt have time/budget/whatever to include it in the game.Having said all of that, the people whining about lack of quest markers and compass are fucking decline morons.

But I've read the NPCs don't bother explaining you anything, either. Confirm / Deny
Can't see half of that page in Firefox, funny.They made a massive whine post about IGN ripping them a new one. The cherry on top of this turd sundae.
