    Here's new information translated for your convenience:

    - 36 final states of the world and 3 epilogues (each 1 hour long)

    - you can import your save game, but it's not going to change backstory of the game. Still, it will affect characters.

    - you can buy horses or tame a wild ones by using Axii

    - Geralt will be much more agile. Now he can jump and climb wherever he want.

    - a wild animals will appear. Geralt may hunt them and take their furs, claws etc.

    - main storyline is 50 hours long

    - now people will call the guards, when they see Geralt stealing their stuff

    - there is a new mechanic, which is similar to VATS from Fallout 3. You can aim at the specific parts of monsters bodies in slow-mo

    - no more QTE

    - Geralt now can achieve 60 level max

    - PC and console versions have completely different UI

    - you gain experience points only by completing quests, hunting will provide you money and crafting materials

    - a two new minigames: axe trowing and card games

    - economy depends from the area. In some places you can buy something for a lesser price, or sell it for higher price.

    I'm sorry for bad translation.

    I like the bit about Geralt's dexterity. I thought it was pretty lazy for a game that prides itself on tech that you couldn't climb or jump whenever you wanted in Witcher 2.

    Witcher with a bit of Assassins Creed and Red Dead thrown in sounds good

    Hopefully they deliver on the longer storyline, Witcher 2 was a great game but too damn short. What was there was quality, just needed a bit more of it.

    This all but confirms that CDPR only cares about ripping off Skyrim and other popular RPGs, rather than appeasing Witcher fans. Allow me to specify (good grief there's a lot of mess to work through):

    - there is a new mechanic, which is similar to VATS from Fallout 3. You can aim at the specific parts of monsters bodies in slow-mo Bethesda are the greatestest and most innovator devs of all times!

    - no more QTE Skyrim doesn't have QTEs either

    - Geralt now can achieve 60 level max Just like Diablo 3

    - PC and console versions have completely different UI What the flip ever

    - you gain experience points only by completing quests, hunting will provide you money and crafting materials How is this even news?

    - a two new minigames: axe trowing and card games Um, yay

    - economy depends from the area. In some places you can buy something for a lesser price, or sell it for higher price. Just... just like in SKYRIM!?

    Now that got me more hyped about the game.

    No QTEs, 50-hour story and the UI difference between PC version to consoles. Good... good.
