I was having a lot of fun with this game. I don't care about the dip in graphical quality, it just felt fun to play, that is, until my favorite companion died on my ship, killing her questline. I didn't even know about this bug being in the original release, so imagine the rollercoaster ride it was when I discovered this was a known issue that had been solved... But is still on the switch version. Parvati is my ace, I just love having her character around. I don't know if I've ever been so interested in a companion quest. I didn't realize it until I got to Monarch at level 21. Hopefully this gets the proper attention. I haven't heard anything about it except for on other consoles where it's been fixed already.

Let us remove our companion's helmets/caps/hats. Is ridiculous how they must be forced using a head item if you use it on the inventory menu by mistake. If you try to remove from their inventory a messages pops up "you can't change a head item" or something like that. You only can replace for a different one, it has no sense at all.

So I’m on the Groundbreaker after finishing a mission and as I am leaving I hear this lady (Ellie) in the medical bay complaining about something or whatnot, so I talk to her and start the ”Worst Contact” Mission but before I went ahead I told my current companion (Parvati) to go back to the ship since I figured I didn't need her then I set off to go to that hidden entrance to the restricted area of the medical bay thinking the id cartridge was back there also but no it was in the nonrestricted area as a found out later but I thought I could sneak past the guard and get it but they caught me and I had to kill them which lower my reputation which I didn't want so I went to a previous autosave so I could do it with getting the id cartridge fist then going past them but here's the problem: when I loaded back in I noticed the Parvati’s character model was there want this was after I dismissed her but there she was. I couldn't interact with her and she had the original outfit she has at the beginning of the game. I didn't think too much of it I've seen this happen before in other games but I'll tell you why I made this when it comes up anyway I finish the mission and go back the Ellie and Parvati is still standing there just the way I described before but I still don't this much of it (besides the fact that it's still there) and I go the Ellie and finish the mission and recruit her and we go my ship and I go around the ship to see where Ellie would be and before that happens I see Parvati doing her usual thing but in the same outfit from the beginning of the instead of what I gave her so I go to see whats in her inventory and there's nothing. So that's the problem and I wouldn't as upset about it if she didn't have the prismatic hammer which isn't replaceable. Now the only save I have before this happened was 6 hour prior so I was hoping to find a way to fix this or at least get the hammer back without doing 6 hours worth of stuff I already did and if not then tell me. The video was a save I went back to before I finished the mission so that I could show what was going on with Parvati. The second video is showing everything that was reverted back Including her skills. 59927233842__DAD3E270-B302-4F3D-9341-4DD519AC2ED2.MOV 59927196644__2F9038AE-40FC-4F02-8B20-83974F2B1ED8.MOV

I first encountered the Parvati companion bug when I came to Roseway ("The Distress Signal" quest) - the quest "Sapphire Wine" was labeled botched, saying Parvati was dead. Went back to the ship, found her, and could add her as companion, which brought back the Sapphire Wine and I was able to complete it. However, now that I've come to Stellar bay, the next quest Don't Bite the Sun is stated botched again (stating the same "Parvati has died" reason), while Parvati is still in my group. I can't start the Don't Bite the Sun quest.

The last patch was supposed to fix this bug, but I encountered it again. This is a new game that I started after the patch. I talked to Parvati and she started the mission Don't Bite the Sun, but then I got the message that the mission botched because she died. Aside from this frustrating bug, I'm really enjoying this game. A fix would be much appreciated. Thanks!
