Again, don't think the situation is much different than other games. The party has a good reason to stick together - they all have tadpoles that try to kill them and so they have a common goal. Why they specifically follow the MC? No good reason. I think there are two reasons for it -
1) like I said, it's a crpg trope, and it seems hard to construct a main character who is both a completely clean slate of sorts (in the DND sense that the MC could be a charismatic bard or a stupid barbarian) and a guy you have a good reason of following.
2) the origin system - the fact that anyone of the party is also the potential leader, depending on who you chose, makes it very hard to create one unified reason for the party to follow.
