I was wondering, when the DLC comes out I hear it gives you a level 30 character to choose from if you don't have a save. So I was wondering with this level 30 character can you do a New Game + with it? I played through the Witcher 3 when it came out and I will be honest I wasnt really in the mood and forced myself to play it while taking nothing in and when I upgraded to W10 I didnt back my save.

So basically can you start a New Game + with the level 30 Character?

Thanks guys.

New game plus is not based on the level of your character. You have to have completed the game at least once, and import that completed save to activate NG+ .

Thought as much :/ dont want to be OP for most of the game. Ah well maybe I could just download someone's save file who has completed the game at least once.

You can play the expansion even without a save.
MMORPG: You mentioned that Hearts of Stone is a standalone story from the main events of Witcher 3. So you can play this even if you haven't finished the main campaign?

Jakub Szamalek, Senior Writer: Yes, but you might find yourself under-levelled. Even though the Hearts of Stone expansion is a stand-alone adventure, it is aimed at players who already feel comfortable in Geralt's skin and know all witchers' tricks. However, if you haven't progressed far in the main story of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt or lost your saves and are impatient to dive into the Hearts of Stone, you'll be able to start the expansion right away, with a predetermined character.

MMORPG: How is that handled within the game? Do you just pick to play Hearts of Stone from the main menu, or...?

Alexandre Boiret, Junior Quest Designer: You can trigger Hearts of Stone while adventuring in the world of The Witcher 3, or alternatively you can simply play it as a standalone adventure by picking Hearts of Stone from the main menu if it’s what you’d rather do. The experience while be the same apart from the fact than in stand-alone mode, you’ll start automatically with a character meeting the recommended level.

Santiago:
Yeah I saw that but with the level 30 character I was hoping it could go right into NG+ so I'm not totally over powered. When I played the Witcher 3 when it came out I paid little to no attention about what was going on despite liking the last 2 games. The moment I finished it I uninstalled it.

You are not overpowered at that level. The expansion is aimed at level 32 characters.

I'm talking about re-doing the main quests/side quests.

>>> Alexandre Boiret, Junior Quest Designer: You can trigger Hearts of Stone while adventuring in the world of The Witcher 3, <<<

Now, this is interesting because:

you could play into "part one" of W3, maybe until you might go to Novigrad, then branch off to Hearts of Stone, and then again return to where you left off ?

So you basically would have the chance to level up in HoS, and then return bolstered up and continue on as a tank?
Something keeps telling me that this won't work?
