How do you feel about the concept of companions leaving your service if they dislike what you do

I want companions to be their own person. If the choices I make are unacceptable to them, they're free to leave. I'm free to think they're being a self-absorbed myopic ass for leaving.

[edit] I suppose I should be clear that I think there is a difference between liking the mechanic from a player standpoint and respecting the NPC character for their choice. I don't at all respect Alistair for his choice in DAO, but I like that the devs allowed it to happen.

Wynne leaves your party in DAO if you defile the ashes.

I'd be fine with it. I still remember that save when Wynne left. I wanted to unlock the Reaver ability and knew she would leave as a result of my actions.

While I generally like some malleability in Companions (otherwise, what's the point of divergent character development from Companion Quests?), they ultimately should have their own personal limits of they will or will not except. I can see some exceptions, if they have been made more Idealistic and Diplomatic versus more Cynical and Pragmatic, but for the most part I want them to oppose me if my choices run counter to their deepest beliefs. Hell, I miss the days of Baldur's Gate and Mass Effect 2 when Companions could fight each other, as well as the PC, if they couldn't get along. Isn't experiencing the consequences of our choices the whole point of role playing games?

Looks like I'm on the other side here. I think it's incredibly stupid that Oghren, Sera and whoever else will just up and leave because they don't like you. It's the end of the world and I made you mad? Oooh diddums. GET OVER IT.

That's always how I've felt.

I much prefer them to stay out of duty, but hate you. Give me an argument. Give me snark. Let them mutter under their breath as banter and make an alternative cutscene (like Cass being drunk in the tavern). I think that's much better than just leaving and not being in the game anymore.

Oh come on, history is loaded with soldiers who deserted, mutinied or defected because they honestly believed their leader(s) to incompetent and/or just as bad, if not worse than the opposition. Given some of the characters I've played, they would have been right .

True, and in the desecration of the Urn that's a valid option for Wynne and Leliana.  As for the rest, I love some snark and the rivalry in DA2 was fun to watch.  I'd rather have more content than just have them leave.
Also, most of these guys have been picked by the protag as companions because they're brave and fearless.  Oghren swears to die by your side then has a hissy fit and leaves?  Really?  I thought better of him than that.  Rivalry Oghren would've been amazing.

I get that, but doesn't it feel a little lacking?  Stay a while longer and tell me why you're mad, try and prove your point or change my mind.  Show disapproval in a quest or have a cutscene before you go.

I don't have a problem with a companion leaving. If they don't like the way I do things, ****'em. Next playthrough I won't waste my time recruiting them.

The only companion where I felt like it went too far was with Anders. Helping mages is literally all he cares about, yet you can spend the whole game sending them back to the Gallows, making them tranquil, or murdering them. You can even dob him in to Cullen while he watches and he barely reacts!

I mostly liked how they handled companions in DAI. With the exception of Solas, Varric and Cassandra (and Vivienne if recruited) who are there for thier own personal feelings of responsibility, most other companions have the potential to leave you if you go too far in earning thier disapproval.
But I like how that disapproval can be mitigated if the player goes through the trouble of either talking to them or completing certain side quests. Gives a nice sense of reward for that effort I put in. There were some characters who were set in thier mindset and beliefs, and those who had thier beliefs change or alter overtime due to personal crisis.

Still though, it could be improved upon:
How about allowing use to kick companions out? As of right now only Sera had that option, and they could even have consequences for it for certain companions. For example, if I kicked out Vivienne the Inquisition could have suffered a massive influence reduction, war table operations, or additional difficulties durring certain main quests.

And even though I approve of allowing the player to mitigate disapproval for some companions, there should be some rare options that instantly make a companion want to leave you regardless of the approval you had with that companion previously.

Yeah I like the idea of characters leaving if your disapproval gets too low, makes them feel more fleshed out & with a mind of their own.

Just my opinion.
