Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - Suggestions & Feedback Suggestions for better inventory UI experience

Hi! Amazing game, a worthy successor to the Baldur's Gate series!

I've been playing nonstop and the inventory management feels a bit clunky for me personally, so I just wanted to give a few suggestions that could hopefully reach the appropriate parties!

1. Allow the sort properties to be persistent, currently everytime I loot something new I need to open the inventory and click sort by most recent every time, it's alot of extra clicking!

2. Allow the ability to sort inventory when in party view (and let is also be persistent).

3. Allow inventory sorting when on the trade/barter screen.

4. Allow mass selection on the trade/barter menu (to make it less tedious to sell many things in one session).

5. Allow a faster way to sell stuff on the trader/barter system (maybe control-click?). Having to drag everything or double click everything is very tedious, however this wouldn't be an issue if we could mass select as stated in request #4.

That's all for now, hopefully someone capable of making these changes sees this!

Thank you!

All good improvements

I would add another thing that is missing in many parts and ways we move things around the inventory: stacking.

If you use the "Send To" menu, items will stack. This only works when going to camp or the main inventory as there is no way to send items to bags. Sorting does not stack anything... you would have to pull it out and send it between players or do it all manually. This seems like a big UX miss, so I hope they can fix it so that sorting or dragging items into bags will do that item stacking for us, rather than placing the item three dozen rows below. I get it might not be super important for, say, the camp supplies and whatnot, but items like the arrows, bombs, scrolls, and potions that go into our hotbar only end up being there many times when they do not stack.

Agreed, managing the inventory is always tedious and some extra QoL features would help even more.

Having the same sort/filter in both barter and trade windows would help; I don't see why it's only available in the trade mode.
Also, a key/click shortcut for the 'Wares' tag and a dedicated filter in the inventory would help a lot. Especially since there's a bug that makes 'Add to Wares' clumsy at best.

Add bigger font and size of the icons. I am playing on laptop and I really wonder whether in Larian work only people with eagle vision?
