Is Geralt’s Amnesia because I didn’t import a Witcher 1 save file

the-witcherthe-witcher-2

In the opening scene of the game, you meet the Crinfrid Reavers. Dialog with them implies that Geralt met them previously. Geralt claims to have amnesia.

Is this because I did not import a save-file from witcher 1 (and thus the game doesn't know how I "would" have treated them?) or does Geralt truly have amnesia? Did they appear in Witcher 1 at all?

Best Answer

Geralt's amnesia started in the beginning of the first game, it has nothing to do with save files. Geralt doesn't remember most of what happened to him in Sapkovsky's books.

As far as I remember there was no Crinfrid Reavers in the first game.
