The visuals are pretty rough and the map is small. The map size actually is a blessing though since your character moves at a snails pace.
The gameplay, especially from a melee perspective, is rough at best, and directly unfun at its worst.

No sprinting, no mounts, no fast-travel-from-anywhere (beyond mark/recall and the teleport to temple spells) and the in-game fast travel systems were varied, thought out and well placed. Having to plan a route of mage guild teleports, boat rides, stilt striders, and/or the teleportation complexes helped immerse the player in the world.
Boots of blinding speed to the rescue! No idea why authors think it was good idea to make default speed so low and lock game-fixing item behind some random-looking quest in the middle of nowhere
