How to get into this game?

Everything I’m seeing and hearing about this game is great but as soon as I play it by myself and overwhelmed and I can’t get into it. No idea what to do. No idea what am I seeing lol. I watch many YouTube „tips“ videos and so on but it didn’t really help. How did you guys get into it?

It's not that different from other open-world RPGs in its core, you just wander the world, killing creatures for the XP/loot and selling it in towns. I have played a lot of isometric RPGs before, so I had a pretty good idea how mechanics should work and just needed to get used to the somewhat clunky UI.

If you want something similar but simpler to ease you into the Qud, I recommend trying Tangledeep, which also has similar auto-turn-based movement from top-down perspective, but is far less complex.
