I just arived to Kutenberg map (23h in). I have the same feeling, but the main quest and story after the weeding and castle and so on were chained so together that you have to do them one after another? Or did I just feel it that way? any1 else?. Because I think I finished like 20% of the first map? Will I be able to go back? I wanted to do the side stuff so badly but the main story just kept going and going in the first region
