Howdy ya'll,
Has anyone else seen or heard of a fix for tooltip(s) flickering when hovered over in the inventory? This is occurring now after the latest patch 3. It's giving me a headache bad.

I'm also experiencing this problem as well. Happened after the patch.

Many are experiencing this and it's ruining the game. Was super-excited about playing this weekend but this really screws it up.
Here is a thread on Reddit with an example.

Please hotfix this Larian!

I found that if you change areas (either by going upstairs or downstairs, fast travel with waypoints and back or using pyramids) it sometimes clears the error. At least it is playable this way.

Apparently this bug has some sort of link to non-party followers, like the cat from act 1 or peeper from act 2. Resolving their respective quests or killing them seems to stop the flickering of the tool tips, which i confirmed in my own game by delivering peeper to the Magicockerel.

Hope this helps.

Me and my wife stopped playing this last weekend, because of this nasty bug. We are far in act1 but no one is following us, cat disappered in fort joy already.. This is ruining the journey as we can not stand the flicker and spend lot of time in inventory. Larian please hotfix this asap.

We have 2 pc:s with 2 copies with the same problem. It's well reported in Steam forums also i.e. many people have the same problem..

Registered on the forum just so I can add my +1 to this.
The flickering started after the last patch and the game really is unplayable now. I've tried persevering but it's just unbearable.

Reluctantly, I'm going to have to stop playing until it's fixed.
Any official feedback or acknowledgement about this from Larian?

To be honest I am a bit surprised Larian hasn't already patched this, usually they're fast to respond. There are numerous reports all over, below just few example threads:

just get rid of the peeper rooster and problem will go away. I reinstalled the full game to try to solve it and now i just discovered the cause.

The problem is that we do not have peeper or rooster with us at all.. This bug should be fixed asap.

What is a peeper rooster? And how to get rid of it?

Other one is a cat from the start of the game I think (not with our group any more) and the other one is some other animal, chicken from Act2 I presume? I think you can kill either or solve their quest (don't know which those are). To be honest I do not want to get spoiled by knowing lot more than that myself.

Well, we've on break until this gets fixed after spending 90 euros on two copies.. Starting over after 25 hours is not an option to us (yet we are still in Act1). It is simply ridiculous to think about chasing this rooster in the following Act to get this fixed (presumably) and get spoiled in the process.

This bug feels game breaking to us and I feel it is quite odd that it is still unfixed after couple of weeks have passed. Do Larian read these forums or Steam, do they comment bug fixes here? How long do we have to wait to get back to the game? Otherwise game is great to us, but this bug ruins it for us.
