Well I was psyched to see this. Now I'm stuck just as I began. After creating my character I fell into a ditch, and now my character is unable to move away from the wooden platform I fell onto. My character's legs are moving fine, so its not an issue of keys. It's like an invisible wall is surrounding me and preventing me from moving any further. Any thoughts? Has this happened to anyone else?

Please Upload a Screenshot.
Open the Console by pressing the ^ key and type tcl. Close Console with ^ an you can fly out of this area. To disable flying type tcl again.

It has happened to me too. After the game starts, put a flare (Fackel) into your hand.

This happens to everyone, you just have to equip torch, and wait. That'll do it.
