No need to worry about the first two points. That is scrapped content.
The combat system used to be different, more complex and it had a lot of unneeded filler.
And yes, there’s not much more than you can do aside from the 6 districts on the west of town and the forest in the outskirts.
Game’s work in progress, single developer, things move a bit slow I’m afraid.
Which is one of the reasons why the overcomplicated combat system had to go.
