After a few time into it I feel lost. I know that I have to go to some dungeon in the mountains but I just can’t because the character is freezing to death. I cannot afford spending hours randomly exploring the map, relying on luck to discover which mechanic protects agains the cold. There is no guidance except for the fact that there is a dungeon to explore.

I looted a nice sword but after very few encounters it broke in the middle of a fight. Weapons being so fragile just do not make sense, maybe some people appreciate that but knowing that whatever looted is going to be destroyed just make me want to stop playing.

If anyone felt the same, did it click at some point into the game ?

This. I also remember being overwhelmed at the Great plateau, but I'm hindsight, it's just a simple tutorial...

It just kind of sucks because there isn't really any guidance. The key is to talk to the old man and read the book in his hut.

At the risk of almost spoiling it... they are trying to teach you the cooking mechanism, which is quite important in the game, but has quite a learning curve.

Once you get out of the great plateau, then the game really starts and boy is it big. Just enjoy the scenery and don't get too focussed on quickly completing it.

I kind of regret rushing the game the first play through.

Eventually I played through it multiple times. It's really, really good. But it does take a lot of time!
