Thanks a lot for your feedback !
I am working on the quests implementation for the v0.0.3. This includes quests markers on the map and should answer most of the concern you raised.
Some pictures are indeed placeholder and will be replaced by originals NPCs from the world. Also, using camp kits we can indeed sleep anywhere, but we have to buy them from the shop
You are not the first one to raise the clean tutorial issue, and I want to dedicate a whole micro-map and micro-quest to give the players a nice initiation to the world. Probably will be for a later version though
I hope you'll like the future version of EES !
Thanks again,
Shaste
