That was my biggest fear.CDPR doesn't seem like the type of company that should have a release on 3 platforms simultaneously..

Yep. I've got this happening with me too.
So I booted the Xbox One up and the game resumed from sleep, right where I left it. I'm very early in the game and noticed that the game was running really poorly, like super slow, super screwed up, but that can happen sometimes coming back from sleep and it's usually fine. So, I start playing and I'm very early, where I have to hunt the griffin in that first town, so I start that mission... Meeting that dude out in the forest, do what he needs me to do, and I notice the game won't let me save. "You cannot save at this time."
So I figure, eh, must be in the middle of the mission or something. So I keep playing... It keeps telling me that... An hour later it continues to tell me that, and I just figured "Maybe I need to kill this Griffin before I can save.."
So the Griffin kills me near the end of the battle, and then my game locks up on the "You Are Dead" screen... So, I exit back to the Xbox dashboard, go to start the game back up, and now my game is just stuck on this:
It's full 1080P now at least.
dafuck happened to QA in past 3-4 years? No one tests these games before packing this shit?
Is the loading screen 900 or 1080p? Get DF on this
A hard reset will fix this for now (just hold power button for a few seconds + for going sure, plug of power).
The most interesting part of this bug is, even when you start a different game after the bug appeared in Witcher 3, the new started game can't use savegames, too. I tried this with Rayman, Lego Movie and some other games. Didn't know something like this could happen...

The fact that people can't do something as simple as a hard reset blows my mind.
Whatever is causing it should be taken care of soon hopefully.
It cracks me up that the old "Sir, have you tried unplugging it and plugging it back in?" thing still escapes people. That's basically a "hard reset" without holding the button, but they don't even try that.
I mentioned this in my review and CD Projekt are well aware it's an issue because I and others told their PR people and were informed they're looking at it. Hard reset of the Xbox One is the only way to fix it currently.
I *think* it's a certain missions that's bugged. The one where you help the pedder summon ghosts (I forget the actual title of the quest, but you fight off drowners, wraiths and witch hunters around a big fire).
Ever since I did that mission, I was unable to save the game or meditate, leading to the loss of save progress, as it's not something you notice until you die and find out you can't reload either.
This happened to me twice, and I pinpointed the "moment" when I couldn't save each time to that quest, as it was the common thread in both instances. Ever since I avoided that quest, I've not had the issue again.
I could be very wrong, and there may be other quests that do it, but that's my theory anyway.

Just wait for ee edition. This when CDPR games become great bug free and optimisedI want to get this game so bad but I the bugs don't allow me too
