To be honest, I'm having more fun with companions than I thought I would but there is one thing that really annoys me.
I swear I think they are programed to jump in front of my loot. 95% of the time they jump right in front of my loot the split second I try to loot something and the inevitable
"is the something we need to discuss?"
Yes stay out of my dang way.
Seriously I think their interaction footprint needs to be reduced a bit. Their footprint is not as bad as a bear or a matriarch but it is getting to be just as annoying.

✭✭✭✭✭As soon as a mob dies, the companion will step on it and get in the way, I've found that if I wait a second or 2, tthey will then step back and out of the way. Just have to retrain that muscle memory and wait a second before looting.2 -
YstradClud✭✭✭✭I don't mind that so much. What I dislike the most is if you spec Mirri into heals and give her a resto staff she draws agro and then rolls backward into more mobs when they approach her

✭✭✭✭I have a cat that does that, just flings himself right where I'm about to step. At least we can't trip over the Companions and break our noses. But yeah, they need to stay behind us, it's ridiculous and VERY annoying.1 -

This one’s cats do that too, except then they hold grudges and you have to give them lots of treats, pats and apologies otherwise they threaten class action.
Back to the topic: it is very annoying when you’re in a quest dialogue and suddenly you are facing Bastian/Mirri for the 100th relationship health check.Edited by SammyKhajit on June 20, 2021 5:12AM1 -
Paulytnz✭✭✭✭✭A toggle for interacting with them would be nice and could fix this. Of course we would also need to be able to click "through" them as well for this to fix it fully.
I want something similar for things "behind" our characters too. Want to jump but you farm a mat or try to fish from a fishing spot instead? Similar issue imo.Please support my Quality of Life Suggestions here:

✭✭✭They really need to do something about all followers (companions & quest NPCs as well) in this respect. Program a 5 foot distance or something.2 -

And/or don't have them get focus by clicking on them our using the general use button.
The more I play, I think the devs did pretty well with them for the first time out, there's quite a bit to them.
The needs have been mentioned routinely, so here's to them patching them up some.0
