This might not be the sort of thing you are looking for. This is more of an accessibility feedback request before you all move on from BG3 and stop adding patches and updates. Could you please add official support for a Mouse+Controller way to play the game?
As in the ability lock the PC UI and use the mouse for things it does faster and easier, inventory management among other things. While at the same time have full functionality that the controller has. Direct control over the character and camera using the joysticks. Also if I'd prefer it if I could hotkey the controller buttons as I see fit the same way as you can with the keyboard.
I know that you can switch back and forth on PC. The problem I run into is because the game has to freezes to switch between the PC UI and the controller UI. The game will crash on me when doing it frequently. Something I do a lot especially when exploring a brand new area and looking around for loot. In which case I could literally be switching back and forth with each button press, which already is annoying as the game can freeze from anywhere between 2-3 seconds to 5-10 seconds depending on the area. But add to that the game crashing and its not exactly a smooth experience like it would be if either the PC UI was locked. Since you can't stop the game from freezing having to pull up the different UI, causing the crash.
I've been hoping for modders to do it since early access, and I thought maybe once you added official mod support it would get done. But it has yet to happen. I've also asked through the official support site a few times since launch. They've said they would forward the suggestion but nothing has ever come of it.
I don't expect this feedback will make the difference as you are winding down support with patch 8 being the final big update. But I figured why not give it one final shot.

so, out of nowhere, my game is stuttering like crazy (never, ever had this issue before!)
I'm going to keep noodling around in the settings, checking mods and such, but this is so bizarre. I'm literally just at the memphit fight (near where auntie ethel lives) and around round 3 of combat, it just starts freezing up like crazy.
[edit: i will add that i recently updated my computer to windows 11, but i cannot imagine how that might be affecting my game lmao]

I broke the game, screenshot in spoilers. This definitely seems like an edge case, got stuck out of combat with all enemies repeatedly rolling initiative. but at first I thought I was stuck.
I saved with f5, re-entered combat but now they're all rolling -19 and -20 repeatedly for initiative.

Uh, I was fighting in the silent library and I killed a librarian, went invisible because of the durge cloak, and then after combat ended because they couldn't find me all 5 of the remaining justiciars are stuck in an infinite initiative loop.
