Right now, you can only follow friends to games but can’t look at the page for the game they are in. If they are in a pay-to-play game there is no prompt to visit the page to buy the game, you simply can’t follow them. You should be able to see the game your friend is in by clicking a link on their profile or something, or at the very least be prompted to buy access to the game they are in.

A weird work-around is to use the home menu to see what games your friends have recently played. However this can be time consuming when you have a large amount of active friends.
Actually, if you hover over the little controller by their name (if they’re in a game) it will tell you what game they are currently playing.
If they’re playing a game with an ambiguous name (i.e. “Testing Place”), you won’t be able to find the place they’re currently at.
Also, the new Chat-screen is a bit weird.
If someone has never chatted with you, it displays “Online” or something similar.
If they have chatted, it shows their last message, looking the exact same way.
For some people I have “Online” while someone else has “asdf” for example.
It would be nice that when you hover over their thumbnail there, it displays where they are.
(Instead of just a colored bar indicating whether they’re playing/studio/online)
