Maybe not, if you like it easy and the game isn't giving problems. Though you will miss out on changes like combat, balanced out exp, gold, the biggest changes were the Talent skills, like 1 Perception and finding stuff on ground gives a bonus and raises it without you having to spend points, The old version didn't do that you have to spend the points manually.
Your choice.
when I did it my forging was around 55. That should be the level you need to fix the tainted dawnbreaker
The problem is that some information has been removed from the home page. Let me clarify that a fetish or + has been removed (I won't say which one, for the protection of the game and the developer). Because unfortunately there are spies who do not tolerate fetishes that they do not like. So they go and report those fetishes to patreon knowing that they are not well accepted there. It is really a sad thing, but precisely because of this, there are some users, who want to assert their opinion more than others. Just like the fetish we have been discussing for a couple of days. Since they do not like it, they deliberately say that it is not canonical or that do not exist in the game. When the game becomes canonical based on what the user likes. The developer is creating an RPG, giving us choices. And making us choose what is canonical in our games. He is definitely doing a great job.
Yes. You only need to transfer your save folder from your old installation to the new one.
Thank you (I only had enough to raise to 50 at that point).
It depends, because if the save is from a version that is too old, you may encounter invalidating bugs. I don't remember from which version you can use old saves. I constantly update the saves, every time a new version comes out. So I can be sure that the save will not have future problems. However, I remember there was a warning that the saves from a certain version, would have problems, if ported from such an old version to a new one. If someone can confirm what I say, it would certainly be better.
0.3.9.5 was the last time a save has been broken (you can see a note about it in the op under "Developer Notes").
There are a couple different encounters with Werewolf. You did not provide information about which encounter you are seeking. The Walkthrough guide references them very well. But in brief, off the top of my brain, 1st should be after a few games of hide and seek with Arianna provided you have completed the rabbit foot quest for Corvus. Next afterwards is optional in the old church catacombs when you are rescuing Arianna from the Cult and trying to flee. Additional encounters are possible if you did not kill the werewolf yet.
1. You have your first encounter with the werewolf during the Arianna storyline. She is the first Li you meet after the intro.
