This is so annoying.

Can interact.

 

Can’t interact.

 

WHY.

I think that'd be too OP and you'd never want to walk on foot again. I'd like to be able to interact with some other things like animal tracks while on a beefalo tho

But if you domesticate a beefalo isn’t it for the sole purpose of never walking on foot anyway? Interacting with more things being overpowered is such a weird argument when there are tons of other overpowered things in the game to begin with. 
It’s not a balance at all, just annoyance in my opinion.

the reason is simple.

Riding a beefalo used to be extremely restricted in that you couldn't do much other than ride and that was the rule. It was built this way and it made perfect sense and balance.

Then they started power creeping some actions because some people cried about stuff as usual, but the way these new actions are chosen is arbitrary because the idea that you can do what you want on a beefalo was never in the original plans. So now there is no consistency anymore because klei is stuck being forced to add random actions one at a time on a case-by-case (more like whine-by-whine) basis so obviously there will be alot of actions omitted until the list is done with in the far future.

I'm sure they'll gladly let you harvest berries now that they've seen this thread though
