Yes, but only after hitting a bunch of random keys to see if they did anything and the 'rest' menu came up. I've definitely gone into the controls menu a few times now to learn new things.

I made it out of the starting dungeon, and then had no idea what to do/where to go. Nothing on the map, nothing indicated in my journals, and no tutorial (which had said it would continue once I got out of the dungeon). I finally found a town, at night because I could see what maybe looked like lights way off in the distance, after going a long way and then turning around. Then I got there, went to a tavern, and people were giving me the cold shoulder. One person even mentioned my poor "reputation." I'm like, am I not completely new here?

All-in-all, I found the beginning:

• very punishing (I died a lot, why put a creature that two shots me and I literally cannot injure as the second thing I encounter?)
• buggy (there were lots of bugs, especially around save/load, I'm pretty sure if you aggro creatures or piss people off and then reload to a save just before you did that, they don't reset unless you restart the game.)
• janky ("click to swing" is on by default and I wonder if that is making the fighting really shitty. Certainly the weapon swing animations are pretty terrible.)
• confusing (what is my goal? Where am I supposed to go? Why did a bunch of my stats suddenly appear red and drop 10 or so points?)
• dumb (there are 5 stores in the town I found and none of them will buy/sell armour, but will buy/sell weapons)
• has a shitty tutorial (it's time based rather than progressing based on your actions, and doesn't teach some pretty basic things/doesn't match the key bindings)

I should add that I'm using the GOG version which comes with a bunch of mods preinstalled/enabled. That could be changing my perception, because some stuff seems super smooth and clean (fire, for example) and other stuff seems not so great (fight animations, for example).

So, I'm underwhelmed so far.
