Also if the PC is starting as a level 1 character why not just make it a different character to start a new game from, especially since we are going to be in an entirely different part of the world? It would also not alienate players who has not played the first game yet.
Save import is awesome. If someone's gonna play this they should play the first one also, if not, as Josh said there'll be in-game choices to determine world-state, like the Conquest in Tyranny. And I'm sure Obs will dump enough lore so newbs will get familiar with everything in no time. If it doesn't work...fuck newbs. Why wouldn't I get to continue my journey just cos some newbies could get "alienated"?
Level 1 is better than previous cap I agree but if you are going to do that why not just a new character honestly I just don't get developers sometimes. I guess it's easier to hook the plot from last character but you can literally have same plot and just be a person that recently arrived in deadfire or is going to deadfire to track down a huge adra statue, the reveal would be grander as well when you learn the previous watcher's soul was absorbed.
Its much easier to have a new character and no save import, like most other devs do with their games. But just cos you want a new character and the save import at the same time you don't get the developers...
