Driftwood has a variety of levels in it, you gotta be careful, you arrive at like level 8 or 9 typically, and the enemies you'll encounter are typically 8-15, so if you find an area that you can't do yet, just come back in a few levels.
Yeah Driftwood does have issues now and then, but it took me about 34 hours to get through all of the content in it, and I'm pretty sure I missed some stuff.
