Have you played the game?
I haven't.
Do you have to interact with that character? In all the BioWare games I have played, you don't actually have to interact with any companions at all outside of critpath questlines. Even big blowup moments like the Miranda/Jack fight only trigger once you've completed both of their loyalty missions, and you have to choose to talk to them to unlock those in the first place.
And since I'm assuming you're referring to the Qunari companion, and I've watched a couple of critiques of the scenes I believe you're referencing - it's not their sexuality that's being discussed, it's their gender.
I’ve played Cyberpunk, haven’t played DATV but have seen a walkthrough. The cutscene we a referring to seems to be mandatory as no walkthrough or creator has mentioned a path that does not trigger it. There is another scene with the same character that plays as an akward sex scene. It again, feels and is forced, so people do not like it. If you removed these cutscenes and just had the character be trans it would be a non-issue.
