Much as I've enjoyed this game to this point, I'm thinking of tossing it.

I'm just too frustrated-- seems like all I do is charge around mindlessly looking for places that are very rarely on the map: just shut it down [without saving, 2 hours of my life I'll never get back] after looking all over for the shrine where Malacath gives you the 'oryen bearclaw's helm' quest...

Came accross the statue of him [above ground] where all the orcs are, but can't find the ruins where I first 'met' him.

Seriously, would it have killed the designers to give us decent mapping and a decent journal?

Is there a download that improves any of this?

Has anyone assembled a list of locations and where they can be found?

And boy, am I SICK of cliff racers, the virtual equivalent of mosquitos: constantly in your face, gotta swat 'em, not dangerous yet so bloody persistent that you just can't go about your business. Makes tasks that should be quick and simple SOOO time consuming. Grrr.

Whole thing just getting to be a little too much: frustration outweighs any semblance of 'fun'.

Oru
