As title sugest ...
I was curious about talking with spiders in cave, especialy broodmother ...

So i left my party guarding the Blighted Village, and abseiled into the well ... there i turned myself into spider (circle of land, if that is important) and vent to some spidy talking.
But they attacked me on sight. o_O

So i reloaded and was really carefull to not steal anything from them before i meet first spider ... since i presumed that was my misstake.
But they again attacked me on sight. O_o

Yet in Panel from Hells 2 there was footage of druid in spider form walking between those spiders freely.
And therefore i ask: What the hells am i doing wrong here? :'(

The only thing that surprises me here is that you say there was footage showing a spider-shape-shifted Druid walking freely among spiders. I watched the PFH2, but while doing something else at the same time (more exciting than watching Swen bore people, I confess), so I most certainly missed stuff past the first 30 minutes.

What doesn't surprise me is that the spiders attacked you.

Previously, with a ranger, I called a "familiar" raven, and went on to scout the map with the raven. Upon entering the Blighted Village, the ambush goblins attacked my innocent bird.

I got the impression that, when they see a raven (or cat, or else), enemy creatures in the game know that it belongs to your team, and so they attack. While in all credibility, they should just ignore it. In fact, exploring freely without raising suspicions is part of the basic usages of shapeshifting into a bird (or cat or otherwise weak creature that you wouldn't shape-shift into for combat).

Needless to say, if that's confirmed, I'd find this pretty disappointing and hope that Larian changes this.

I confirm what th OP said.

Here you go : Video - Showing spider ^^
(Time = 49min37s)

And the druid man clearly says : "And other spiders won't attack you"

Thanks ! Well, then it sounds as if the feature is not working well. Did anyone else try to walk among spiders ?
