I've imported correctly the savegame from the first game (I have the swords and the armor) but I've already started to notice that there's maybe some issue with the import. More specifically, I've just received the message and the package from Thaler, even if in my savegame he's dead.

What I want to ask is: should the savegame always be located in the documents folder or can it be removed after importing it? I've deleted the game and the savegame (I have a backup) after I've played a bit of the prologue of W2, so maybe that messed up my choices, is it possible?

Thanks in advance.

I have a single save file, so no mistakes from that point. Could be a bug. I'll try starting a new game and see if it happens again.

I know it's been 3 years, but I just wanted to let everybody know that the issue didn't present itself when I've recently played the Witcher saga again. So, problem solved (somehow).

You should have a folder with the savegame under Documents, regardless of having or not having a cloud save, and regardless of the platform you've played it on (Steam or GOG). What I did was just finish the first game and then start the second game and it recognized my saves. Everything worked well (this time LOL).
