Newbie saying, Hello!

[Windemic]

Hello everyone!

I've never played before, looking forward to exploring a world!

I see there are a lot of Addons and guides, does the game offer an enjoyable experience without Addons and following guides? I really have the best time exploring a new game without any extras or guides, wandering aimlessly and questing leveling as I casually come across content.

Thanks for any info!
