Yes I wonder if Divinity was released a little too early? It seems quite hard to play when there are almost no pointers about where the shops are. I just learned you can click on Trading while talking to any character, but I would like to have known that when I initially began playing.
I bought a skill book from a man near the docks, and after providing some decent items and enough gold for him to agree, I received no book at all. It is nowhere in my inventory yet all the items I traded with the guy are in his inventory, as well as the gold I paid him. The skill book I bought just vanished after the trade.
Another problem (a bug?) is in how unwieldy the map is. In my game so far, clicking the map shows 4 portals, yet none of them are labeled on the map, which means the map is almost useless for that.
Also with the map, when you click onto an area of the map, most people expect it to take you there. At least take your mouse pointer there in the game. Yet the map has no such ability.
All in all, the game is very unwieldy in that it gives almost no info on where to buy and sell items. Shops should be plentiful and easy to get to. The map should act the same way the map in Skyrim acts, where if you click on a spot in the map, it takes you there. Also, the ambient noises of men yelling is irritating. Many people playing this game for the first time are deep in thought trying to figure out everything. To hear angry men blurt out what sound like profanities is quite foolish to have in this game.
One final problem, it takes forever to save a game and to load a game.
