As somebody brand-new to the game, I could mostly muddle my way through things... and then I ran into the first merchant in the druid grove and promptly got incredibly frustrated.

- Why are there separate "Trade" and "Barter" screens? What's even the difference between them, why is the game not telling me how they work? Why is the game even allowing me to give away items for free without any warning?

- Why can I only trade for one character at a time? Why do I have to manually move gold and items between characters before talking to the merchant?

This whole interface feels like it desperately needs an overhaul to make it friendly to new players. Heck, just stick the BG2 trade screen in there, that was easier than whatever's going with this mess.
