Followers are a great addition to Elder Scrolls, imo. They were a great idea in Fallout, and it is nice to see them added to this franchise as well. However, they definitely need some work. Please post things you would like to see added to or changed about the Followers.

1) Better command structure. It is a simple and relatively ineffective point-and-click right now. Fallout had a great command system for followers, allowing you to order them to use melee or ranged weapons, follow you closely or at a distance, or head back to base. But those types of commands are completely removed here, even though the Follower system would greatly benefit from having it. PLEASE add in these types of commands.
2) Fix the current command structure. The first time I used the "Wait there" command for my follower, I expected them to walk over to where I had pointed and enter "Wait" mode. Instead, they only went half the distance and then came back to me as soon as I took one step. The result has been the same on subsequent attempts. Please fix this!
3) Remove weapon pickup. This will be less of a problem if item number one is added. I have attempted removing a melee follower's weapon and giving them a bow and arrows to force them to use ranged combat. The next time I observed them fighting, they had a different melee weapon. The only logical conclusion is that they picked one up off a defeated foe. If I take something away from my Follower, there is a reason for it. Please don't make them pick up and auto-use items.

Thank you!
