🎯 Tips & Tricks
Back up your current save files before replacing them with this one—you don't want to lose your progress.
Make sure your game version matches the save's era (2015) to avoid compatibility issues.
Check your inventory and quest log in-game to see what you're working with, since the description doesn't list them.

⚠️ Common Mistakes
- Installing multiple mods that modify the same files without checking compatibility
👍 Pros
- Community-approved with 635 endorsements and over 32k downloads
- Perfect for players who want to skip Velen and jump straight into Novigrad's quests
- Saves you hours of early-game grinding if you've already played through Velen
👎 Cons
- No details on gear, quests completed, or choices made—could be a dealbreaker for some
- Last updated in 2015, so it's tied to the original game version and may not work with all DLC or patches
- Only one save slot, so you'll need to back up your own saves before using it
