On PS5… If I walk too close to them, I’m stuck in a attack targeting system that I cannot get out of. Sometimes I can switch party members to fix it, but if the entire party is close enough- everyone is stuck. I’ve had to reload saves because I cannot get out of this.

The game wants me to attack the barrels and won’t let me not do it.

    This happens to me on the PC with my xbox gamepad as well. It started recently, since the patch before the ps5 launch, I feel.

    The best quick solution on gamepad I found is to short press ‘up’ on the dpad to enter jumping which cancels the targeting.

    Btw, holding up un-/equips the torch, holding down let’s you enter stealth (for the whole party, I think) and tapping down let’s you immediately examine the targeted object/creature ✌️

      Because once it targets you’re locked in on it and can’t move.

            So when you get close to an explosive barrel your character stops responding to the left stick?

            I’ll try it out tonight but I can’t remember ever encountering that behavior.
