Spark effects when strikes are blocked, and text such as "Toughness up" or something of that sort - they've been present in the recent footage of Kenshi, both at TGS and in the launch trailer. (Not the XP gain text, in the trailer)
However, they're not in the game at the moment. Might we be getting those additions sometime soon?

Never seen any mention of XP gain text. It's not a system that counts "experience points" as whole numbers, but rather your progress to the next level is a decimal value between 0 and 1 (displayed as 0.00% to 100.00%) wherein the progress gained in a given period of time is inversely proportional to the current level in that skill.
The game does show floating damage indicators, though, perhaps that's what you were thinking of?

As for spark effects, neither of the 1.0 trailers I can find show those. Perhaps it's an old trailer you're seeing? If I recall, Chris (lead dev) was experimenting with stuff like that back in the day.
