I can agree with some more quests, certainly. However, being forced into doing quests as the only practical way to get from level 2 to level 3 without any combat in between gets tiring. Sometimes I'd like a break from questing to kill things.
Well, if you want fights, the option is there, there are fights literally everywhere... throw a bucket around, hit another fight.
Quests on the other hand not so much. Cyseal has quite a few but I have yet to actually finish a quest that doesn't complete on the spot (like killing those 2 guys at the start harassing the elf yeah). Meanwhile I'm level 5 and have murdered about 50% of the population in the fort (without even using force attack).
