Before I start this: Is there any class you should choose, or can you change it later? Is there anything that is more powerful than others, or do you think it is well balanced and well playable with any loadout?

You can change vocation (classes) once you reach Gran Soren - witch is pretty fast if you straight up follow the main story.
As for what to start with, go with what you think might suit you better. And once you can change vocation, you really should try different ones, especially once you've maxed out one.

Is there a fast-travel option? It seems kinda annoying to have to walk EVERYTHING, and I only played a couple of hours...

Here's the thing: Fast travel makes you lazy, and it makes you miss exploring interesting locations. There are few instances where you want to fast-travel anywhere except back to Gran Soren and if you are a good explorer you will find portable teleportation stones which you can place wherever you want. My recommendation is that you place one of these nearby the northern tower (north of Grand Soren, across the sea) as soon as possible.
I think I teleported a total number of 5 times in my playthrough, first time because an encounter was just too difficult, second time because I needed to stock up on herbs, and third time because I got wise and realized I would have to travel between two different locations a couple of times, and the other two in sequence to that same location (the north tower).
Once you've placed the teleportation stone it will be available as a location (you can choose between it and Gran Soren). When you find more such stones each will be a choice, so you can sort of fast travel in the game, but it takes ferrystones... if you're too lazy to locate them you can buy them (not at the latter part of the game though, so stock up before facing the dragon).
Yes, yes I'm back.
Somewhat.

Sure, it has its flaws, but it's the best damn game this year.

I don't doubt it, it's getting excellent feedback and it has more than a passing feel of the Souls titles to it. I'm definitely going to keep playing... but man oh man wouldn't I prefer a PC version just to brute-force the framerate a bit. Village and wilderness running it's fine, but closed quarters and heavy combat causes it to chug significantly.

All times are GMT + 1 Hour |
so next time 
The performance is absolutely horrifying, at BEST I would say it's plodding along at 15-20fps and much, much worse when magic is being cast. I'm only in the opening part so far, just fighting the Chimera, and it's shocking. No amount of motion blur is going to make this seem even remotely smooth or playable, not to me at least 
I certainly hope it clears up because the game looks like it has enormous potential but right now the performance is too low to be comfortable for playing.
