From a Witcher quest I'm currently on: "I gave the mirror to the noonwraith. She stopped attacking me and seems to remember who she used to be. It wasn't enough to put her to rest, though. I need to investigate further. Aren't there any shortcuts to this folktale? I must continue looking for a way to put [the ghost] to rest."

The level of hand holding isn't even close to that of Oblivion's since, in The Witcher, the quest log generally (Or never? Can't remember.) doesn't tell you information you haven't been told in-game while such occurrences are rampant in Oblivion.

Also, the map markers only show you where (and if) you have been told to look for someone, if an NPC is not there you need to use your wits and think about where you might find someone at the time of day you're trying to find him/her. Apparently, some have actually reported this as a bug.
