Seems to me in the open world part of the game. nothing is working. open world locations and events are not loading up only providing you with odd looking maps that look unfinnished or bugged. or event pages of text with no text.

Maybe due to me using an old save from before the hot fix patch. i don't know.

Tried a new game chacarter and i thought you could skip the prolog and go stright to the open world part of the game. You can't.

Looking at steam forum this is as far as the game has got in development. goes to show how really early the development is. it is not a not early acces game its a alpha game. well, took me 12 hours to get to this point.

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

"The early access version features the prologue and piece of the global map exploration which gives more than 10 hours of gameplay (depending on your playstyle). The player will be able to finish 20+ quests, meet 75+ unique characters each with their own dialogue and story."

I didn't know about this info. fair point. it all makes sense now.
