The only thing you could customize about your followers was the outfits, everything was pretty much the same, aside from some mods and skins.

I like the companion change in 4.0 as I now can use followers that got shelved in favor of a tank or healer follower.
Adding multiple roles to each companion could have been done without trashing companion gearing.

As for the rest... never had trouble gearing companions, at least it gave me something to do with the overflow of basic comms by two mains were hauling in once their gear was maxed... I was buying mods and sending them to my alts ahead of time just to keep from hitting the basic comms cap.

True true, I will be having an influx of coms now, sorry crystals now, but I'll have to find something to spend them on.

Or "when there's a decision I don't like I create a stupid thread saying I unsubbed"...

These forums.... No wonder devs avoid it like the plague, so much negativity, everyone who's enjoying the game should do same, lest you be influenced by ********...

Every level 21 companion set to tank will be just like every other level 21 companion set to tank.
The defining factors are your level, presence, affection and influence... if all of those are the same, agreed, they will be the same... how likely is that?

Maybe I'm just tired, but that seems a bit nitpicky when it comes to the point I was trying to make.

Which is what? Most people I see gear in the unaugged yavin 192 gear anyway at end game, so where's the nitpicky? After all, its you that's saying it diminishing the game.
I don't, personally mine are running around in full 198's and bolstered massively by my 1045-1500 odd presence, gives me a 70k Qyzen and a 60k Nadia... so yeah it's gonna be tough to take, BUT they will still be fairly individual to me due to those things I mentioned... my level, affection, presence and influence - if you watch the stream and take a quick look at the companion selection screen, you'll see some sort of level indicator too... that might be the influence, idk... but seems to be per comp and from 1-50, so who knows how much impact that might have.

You will have to wait and see!
