I've been playing this game for nearly 3hrs now, got a few nuggets of story cs and then have gone 2 whole hours with NOTHING but wondering around the map to the next exclamation mark which provides NOTHING to the game's plot!

Oh boy, a "sidequest" where I have to blow up a wall to progress...such f-THIS IS NOT FUN!!! THIS IS BORING! Someone PLEASE tell me the game doesn't do this THE WHOLE WAY and the story dryspell is just poorly paced "dramatic buildup" to the real plot of the game...
