Hey and welcome (back). 
The game’s atmosphere is still very dark in Act 2 and further, but the world is more ‘alive’ than in the Act 1 ( less caves and cellars, more woods and nature ).
The game’s full release has been annouced for fall 2015 but it could also be released early 2016. We’re still way closer to the end than the beginning.
