A: Yes, there will be a key for GOG.com

Thw Witcher in two minutes by Gamespot. Nothing new, mostly back story but it does contain information I guess could be considered a bit of a spoiler for some. Although I would venture a guess that you could have reasoned your way to it all if you have been following The Witcher in general.

So I found this on another forum, its actually a month old(how did it slip past you guys!?), but Damien talks about item scaling with a little more insight.

http://www.digitallydownloaded.net/2015/03/interview-as-we-get-more-excitied-for.html

The Highlights:

DD: What reward incentives are there for tackling higher levelled creatures at lower levels?
DM: Basically since our monsters don't scale with you, if you go fight a monster that protects a chest (very RPG, but just an example). and you manage to kill the monster, you have access to the chest. At this point, in some cases, but not all, the chest will have some info from the designer that will say, for example, "there is a sword in there, it's called this and that, and it is epic". The stats from the sword will be scaled automatically to fit your current level but be super-powerful still. That's pretty cool because you are rewarded with a very powerful sword, instead of having something on you that is brilliant but that you cannot use until you've levelled up more.

In some cases that's still the case; we don't auto-generate everything, but in some cases we do and it's pretty cool because it guarantees an awesome piece of gear that you'll be able to use instantly. You don't want to feel like you should have waited to earn the item - the point here is to make you keep going so that you always get better and better instead of aiming for that one legendary sword (I keep saying sword but it's for armour too and other things).

Some other interesting tidbits I havent seen mentioned before:

DM: Even with creatures like wolves for example, without getting too technical, there is a radius around them and when you enter that radius some of them will start growling and warn you that you are getting too close. If you move away they should leave you alone, but if you keep walking towards a wolf you will hit another radius around the creature that says, 'okay, go attack him now'. That system is in place with most animal/ creatures as to give you a warning so you don't just aggro half the map when all you wanted to do was pick up a flower for a potion that just happened to be in the middle of the swamps.

The Axii sign, which is the mind controlling one, can become powerful to the point where you can put a lot of enemies to sleep at once, or you can also use it during dialogue scenes like a truth serum or in a way to calm people down.

Gameplay Trailer (Japanese)

Unfortunately, "cocksucker!" thing and "...then Fuck Off!" thing has become to soften up like "...then go away", but all in all, I felt Japanese-voiceover is successful.

Developer CD Projekt Red confirmed to Gamespot that all digital copies of The Witcher 3 will unlock at 1 a.m. CET on May 19. This means Witcher 3: WIld Hunt will be available 7:00 p.m. on 5/18/2015 on the east coast of the United States (which is 1:00 a.m. CET). I guess I will be going dark a day earlier now ...
