Ok, the first moments with the new update were terrifying 
.
By using one button (X) for USE and COMMAND blocked the possibility to stop following. I can’t move or destroy anything (from the menu after holding down the USE button). And while moving the analog stick, I can still hear the sound of choosing something from the circular menu (although there is no visible menu 
).
How did this happen?
- Use the controller in Conan Exiles.
- Try setting the controller button (X) to COMMAND.
- Read the warning (according to the game my button (X) is “Gamepad Face Button Left”).
- Confirm OK (despite the warning, the USE function will continue to be used by the (X) button).
- Order followers to follow you.
- Try to move a piece of furniture or destroy any building element by holding the button (X). The circular USE menu appears for a split second, and is replaced by the COMMAND menu (after leaving the COMMAND menu, the sound of selecting items from the circular menu remains).
- The same happens when I hold down the (X) button on a follower to move it or order to stop following.
Solution
- Log out of the game every time you want the follower to stop following you (it also fixes sounds).
Note: I will try to test other elements of the game. 
Note 2: Please think again about changing the size of the circular menus so that they can work together. Likes for this post did not come from nowhere. More details here.
