Personally, I think the point of having a group of characters is that they all participate. Like, for example, when you encounter the lizard being assaulted in front of Fort Joy, you decide to keep your nose out of it, but your companion, The Red Prince, decides he's going to intervene anyway.

At the moment, it's like The Red Prince isn't even there.


I'm with you on that point. But I don't think forcing all player interactions to be through the main character is a solution (and, adjacently, I don't think allowing player interactions to be through other party members is a symptom or cause of the problem you mention).
