That was the one thing that put me off from playing it. I've read the description on the companions and I realized I don't want to play it.
Kingmaker had a similar problem and I ended up just getting mercs but I just did not want to do that again.
It begs the question why were companions likable in other games and why the shift?
I still may try it out at one point with mercs. I don't think the companions are poorly written, just not some I would take in my party. BG1&2 you had a tone of companions to choose from, some of them were nice and some of them were not but you had enough to make a nice party to suit me personally.
The ones in Wrath seem either meh or annoying. Ember does seem interesting, Camellia and maybe Lann - way to few to form a dcent party.
