Ok, I'll insert my 5 cents.
Something more to do in the forest:
1. Add something like loot bags, that need potions or other resources to open them, like locked chests that require acid potions to open, or enemies guarding them, or some kind of magic enchantment that prevents them to open and requires potion of dispel. Probably should have something valuable in them like sellable trinkets/wardrobe items(if such system is planned)/potions/recipes/money... You get the idea.
2. ^ as above, but with locations that have many plants, like glades with a lot of shrooms or meadows with flowers etc. Probably should be guarded or otherwise made difficult for player to reach them.
3. Some non hostile npcs, like travellers, merchants, monks, magicians, witches, wandering knights, hunters, woodcutters, maybe some nonhumans like goblins/orcs. You know, usual medieval fantasy folks.
4. Some difficulty scaling to sort all this mess above that I wrote, like during morning/day it's relatively easy to traverse and during night it's more dangerous. Enemies and plants can be sorted that way, like werewolves and more dangerous animals are active at night, but less dangerous creatures and bandits active during the day.
Something to do in town: ? I don't know, I guess this is early in development so I won't say anything here.
Time mechanic:
Do you really need it that fluid? As a player it kinda difficult and not really fun to have to time manage. Besides we already have to keep all these potions/ingredients in our mind. Isn't it easier to just separate it to Morning/Day/Evening/Night to give players an easier looking schedule? Or early morning/late morning/day/early evening/late evening/night if you want to have more time slots.
Quests and dialogue:
More please, with hostile npcs, non hostile npcs, with town citizens/merchants/shop patrons/guards/city officials, with your sister. I want more please
Graphics:
I would rather play game that has shitty/mediocre graphics but deep gameplay and interesting story, than boring game that plays like visual novel. So please don't listen to the haters, your graphics are good.
