— Companions do nothing as you get eaten by a mindflayer, and never seem too concerned with what happens to the player in cutscenes.
I agree that the companions should react as you get eaten by the mindflayer. (I really enjoyed the fact that a bad dice roll got me and my party killed.)
The companions could of course protest against you approaching the midnflayer. But it might also be interesting if they encouraged you to get eaten by the mindflayer -- if they were mind-controlled by it too!
