What annoys me: the soldiers I recruit from lone fortresses (not in a city) have money pouches, but their currency is for that specific fortress and is worthless because it's not associated with a market/shops (AFAIK).

Stopping to cross a river.

Stopping to cross more than one river.

Stopping to cross a river, which is actually a deep cliff, with ice at the bottom.

Elven adventurers not getting free waterskins. Seriously, how can you even get them in adventurer mode?

Fortresses have backpacks AND waterskins AND buckets. Buckets are way better than waterskins. A fortress is an Outsider's BEST FRIEND. :)

What annoys me is waking up with my throat shot out by a gobbo. It is fun trying to kill all of them before I bleed out, though.

Losing all my travel companions because they can't retreat.


I was lucky enough to escape, have the goblins un-load from the site and come back to loot their bodies.. now i have no way to travel at night.

Becoming really powerful on one adventurer and then getting the action speed bug and moving slower than I did at the start of the adventure.

When people give me quests to take care of undersewer baddies.

Oh come on, just give me another quest guys.

Also, for the completionistic instinct in me, the fact that the creature quest will be forever lodged in my quest log irks me to no end.

Thank you for all the fish. It was a good run.

I hate it when my companions divert their attention from our important quest so they can dive into a river and wrestle fish, only to remember mid fish-duel to realize they can't swim.

Or chase down a herd of hippos in mid-river, kill several, get out of the river, and get stomped by a baboon. >.< Assholes, you just killed one ton vicious ungulates with three inch fangs while swimming in a river wearing metal armor, and wielding medieval weaponry, but a baboon comes at you in the woods and you get ganked? Seriously?

This has probably been mentioned  before, but I get annoyed when I can never sneak because a bird is watching me somewhere offscreen. I also get annoyed with how frequently this happens.

I really hate going from Fast Travel mode to standard walking just to cross a river. It should allow you to fast travel through rivers if you can swim.  ::)

Bandits attacking you when they really shouldn't.  Like, I went a bunch of empty area to get to a small evil mountain range, and then was ambushed coming back.  I was in a wild forest crisscrossed all over with rivers, north of (normal) mountain range that contained a dwarf fortress that was nearly four days away, the nearest settlement was an elven retreat two days away, and there was nothing for at least a week of travel the way I was coming from.  Its like... why were those bandits even there?  No merchant was ever going through.  Its like they said, "hey guys, lets patrol that one specific wilderness location in the middle of nowhere, maybe someone will randomly be there this time!"  Except that if I had picked a different way, they would have been able to ambush me there too...

You misspelled seance.  Are possessing Draignean?  Are you actually a ghost in the shell? You have to tell us if you are, that's the rule

Sewers, those accursed sewers! I have never found a single quest target there, despite systematically combing the entire sewers of a big city. I hope you get to refuse quests soon, and preferably also insult the quest giver as well.

Companions maniacally chasing passive wildlife is annoying. I lost a perfectly good Axeman today. He took off after a two-humped camel alone, and killed it, but not before it turned his right leg into pulp. He literally crawled back to the party and died. Idiot.

Quest-givers who give me a quest to find someone in a big fucking settlement. At least give me directions to his house or something.
