It says something about the state of rpgs when people are mad that companions have their own personalities and arnt all just yandre waifus/husbandos.
I think part of the issue is a lot of people grew up on the mass effect franchise where you had 3 entire games with these companions so now they expect new games to have companions who hero big brother wordship you like Tali did even though they dont know you at all.
Look at Mass Effect Andromida to see what happens when writers try to make everyone a big family off the bat with now development, it feels hollow.
