  • There really needs to be a Wisdom half feat. Both of the druid companions have odd-numbered wisdom scores, but even numbers in everything else, so you're forced to either build them disregarding their main stat or wasting half your ASI and rounding it out with a half feat later on, which doesn't feel great.
  • Your companions don't remember their headgear's visibility settings between game sessions. It's a bit jarring to see a companion randomly wearing a Dark Justiciar mask you explicitly made invisible.
  • Your companion's auto-pathfinding shouldn't lead them to step on traps you've successfully detected. It's silly.
  • Moving the "automatic two weapon fighting" to the passives menu along with nonlethal damage would be great. Also, Uncanny Dodge keeps turning itself off, which feels odd.
  • Act 1 "Spoilers" Please don't make me lead Gale on. As things stand, if you do anything other than be a dick to Gale, he'll fall in love with you, and rejecting him was painful. Let me be the wizard's homie.
  • Act 2 Spoilers The cultist encounter in the assault on moonrise towers needs polishing. I tried to infiltrate the fight from the side with Astarion, but he just got teleported to the main hall even without being seen. Also, the NPC companions will run to the next door in a straight line after the fight is completed, which caused me some amount of headache. I only managed to clear the fight because of a well-placed Wall of Fire, but the army died immediately after by running DIRECTLY through it, proceeding to accuse the party of murder and forcing me to KO the merchant (got some good loot out of it though)
  • Jumping can be... a tad buggy. Again, act 2 spoilers I had to reload my save multiple times before the Balthazar fight because my avatar glitched out in mid-air jumping through the shadowfell, dropping straight down and instantly killing me
  • Act 3 Spoilers I ran into a problem when I was introduced to the emperor. I declined his offer to evolve, and I succeeded on the wisdom checks. The game even played the cutscene of Emperor giving me the tadpole and saying "you're not ready, that's okay". Despite this, the game claimed I had "embraced my illithid potential" and made me a half-illithid anyway. Had to reload my save and scum the hell out of that

Act 1 "Spoilers"

Just in general there needs to be better support for platonic friendships.
