The candles one for me and the tiny switch to get into Hiberheim are probably the biggest culprits. I'm just not sure how the game expects you to do it. I feel like I search the answer to 90% of my stuff now I'm in the last zone whereas in Cyseal I only did it once.
The thing is in Cyseal there's plenty of areas where you'll reach and it'll be gated in some way so you have to go away and come back. Things like the amulet in the church or the reveal scroll for Evelyn's lab. Because of this I found myself treating Luculla forest the same way. "Not sure what to do here, I must have to come back later" then getting demolished by much higher level enemies and being really confused.
The game just doesn't make clear what you need to do where. The only "old school RPG" experience I'm feeling here is King's Quest - where the game would be only a few hours long so you'd have to keep repeating yourself because you'd not clicked on a branch at the start of the game or whatever.
