The Witcher 2's insane difficulty is just that – if you die you have to start the game again from the very beginning.
...
In another nod to long-standing Witcher fans, CD Projekt has confirmed intentions to allow players to import save files from the first game into the sequel.
"In The Witcher 1 the story was non-linear, like in The Witcher 2. We want to import information about your decisions in The Witcher 1, and to make consequences of those decisions in The Witcher 2 so it will impact the storyline. Of course, not a new story, totally. Only little differences.
"We want to give the possibility to import some items from your inventory. Of course, not all because it impacts the game balance. Money, for example, we can't give, because the game economy will be ruined. But for sure there will be an option to import some weapons and armour."
For those who don't have a save game - The Witcher will be over three years old when the sequel launches next year - CD Projekt is considering creating a PS3 Mass Effect 2-style story generator, which will enable gamers to catch up and make decisions that impact on The Witcher 2.
Hmm I hope they will do it since i accidentially formatted my savegames :)
