I feel like this is more understandable as long as the character in question has something that a player could easily relate to, like a family member. If it's a friend, I'd agree that they should flesh them out more, but killing off a character to set a revenge plot up or something is pretty normal. Cutscenes with crying and blubbering MCs early on in the game is pretty cheeseball, like Last of Us.

>someone's gonna have to die and they introduce a character that is instantly loved by all and is really positive and established a deep connection with the protagonist

trails of cold steel does this, but it's more because he feels like he could've saved him somehow than because he actually gave a shit about the guy
the dude who died was ugly, suicidal, and kinda retarded anyway so it wasn't a huge loss
