That old super mutant lady, brain's all derp but I think her name is Lilly... Something about her I just dont like... I guess we just never clicked
I mean really... The thought of attempting a questline with Cass or Boone - with the possibility (high likelyhood) of them dying like flies is only frustrating.
I'm going to second the distaste for Arcade Gannon in his being obscenely snobby in his refusal to actually be engaged with the world in any meaningful way despite his talents merely because he can't be bothered with having a moral position on anything and just runs away from responsibility for the world into the suicidal narcissicism of anarchy.
Because Freeside is an irrelevant hole in the ground and its junkie population will never be important to anything.
Don't forget that in-game representations of spaces are a "game version" of those spaces. Freeside, in actually, is MASSIVE. It's a sprawling mass of dilapidation the size of most any NCR settlement, surrounding a relatively small Strip. What happens in Freeside has a remarkable impact on all sorts of things, because despite how cramped it had to be for the purposes of the game, the actual location represented is large enough and populous enough that the livelihood of its inhabitants is a big deal. There's a huge reason that the Kings have so much power in Freeside because of their bodyguard escort business; it IS perilous to walk from one side of Freeside to another, because of how big it is and how many violent junkies and thieves there are, so a business providing safe passage is very profitable. The simple fact that the poor balance of the game makes Freeside a walk in the park for he PLAYER doesn't mean that the Courier (or anyone else) wasn't in danger just by walking in the general direction of the Strip.You are seeing things from the micro and most shallow way. He is not only about Freeside, but that's where the bigger operation of the Followers is located, mostly because the Junkies and the like are an effect of the occupation of the NCR and the whole conflict in the region. He even has opinions about Westside Co-Op and the whole Legion operation in the region, he can even participate in the Hoover Dam battle.

He refuses to take a position when doing so would actually be productive.
Lily. I finally get to have a Nightkin companion and it's a senile old lady nightkin. Poor choice of comedic value Obsidian.
And to a lesser extent, Raol. And it's strictly because Danny Trejo voiced him.
I have nothing against Danny Trejo. In fact just the opposite. I enjoy him. So when I heard Danny Trejo's voice and heard some of the comments from Raol, I thought ok.. this is gonna be a funny SOB. Not so much. Total and complete waste of paying Trejo to voice a character.
I absolutely loved Raul. The only reason I ever go through the Black Mountain quest on my New Vegas play-throughs is to pick Raul up.

But Mr Hadnies and Gutsies have AI.
You seem to be a bit biased towards that (your signature), in all of my playthroughs, my char treats robots just like they are machines as they do not have an AI. So if a quest is about reuniting a SM and a robot, my character won't be very exited about it.
I'd actually like to see robots around a bit more in-game. "A boy and his robot" is just as much a staple of atomic-age sci fi as a boy and his dog, as is the post-apocalyptic toolshed engineer/junktech prodigy. Counting out Enclave/Brotherhood outliers, we haven't really seen much along those lines since Dorothy and Toto in Fallout 2.

What about reuniting Tabitha & Rhonda ?
Tabitha finally showing sympathy for a simple normie ?
Lot of emotion...
But Mr Hadnies and Gutsies have AI.
Yes. They enjoy making poor bastards die for their respective countries.
