Rather than take us to task for not using the options you provided, it might be more productive to learn what options your users prefer and then use that to guide your game's development. Spending tons of time to create something that appeals to 5% of your users seems dubious. Virtue signalling notwithstanding of course.

Personally I'm hoping you introduce more companions later on. Right now I won't have Astarion or Lae'zel in my party unless absolutely forced.
