Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - Technical & Gameplay Problems looting

I do not know if anyone else is having this issue, but companions won't loot or pick up items. Only player character will loot. Can't pick up flamable barrels. Player character not strong enough and Lazel won't pick it up. That won't break the game, just my strategy for dealing with the cambions.

During tutorial huh?
Yeah that is prime example of really bad decisions that were made last patch ... and for some unknown reason are still kept, despite tremendous amount of frustrated feedback, and problems it caused to players ...

To name few:
Inability to equip followers with basicaly any other weapon than they curently have (or dont in Shadowheart case) ...
Inability to prepare different spells, while curently prepared are useless (what would you like more, disadvatnage on any attack against you, or create spash of water? First one you say? Ok, water it is.)
Absolute failure to actualy *TEACH* (as Tutorials usualy do) player to work with his party ... where instead you get scenario that (hopefully in whole game) is never ever repeated during whole EA.
And many more.

That is how Larian "listens to our feedback" ...
But that may be too hard, after all they had only ... how many again ... 6 months ? ... to realize that this was misstake? :-/
So few more years, and maybe we get there.
