How to unlock the All for One achievement in The Outer Worlds - Definitive Guide
There is total of 10 companion quests, 1 for Felix, 2 for Max, 1 for Sam, 2 for Parvati, 2 for Ellie and 2 for Nyoka. There is 2 of these quests that I missed which is The Illustrated Manual and Dont Bite the Sun.
****To be clear though, ALL of these can be missed if you don't agree to help them in their quests. Just agree to help them when they ask and you should be fine. ****
I'll also be adding guides to help anyone who is having trouble finding the quests or just need help in general. These guide links belong to Segment Next and YekBot and do not belong to me.
Thanks to GlitterLicks for this info on Parvati's quest- "I was just on the Obsidian forums and apparently it will say Parvati is dead if you go to talk to another companion while she is climbing a ladder on the ship. This will cause her to infinitely climb (then fall somewhere in space) and then the game will think she’s dead once you try to do another quest with her. I actually saw this happen when I was talking to another companion early on and laughed it off; didn’t realize it was a bug that would “kill” my companion. :(
They said the team is aware and is working on a fix.
MAKE SURE NOT TO TALK TO COMPANIONS ON THE SHIP WHILE ANOTHER ONE IS CLIMBING A LADDER OR THEY WILL DIE. "

Is there something specific you have to do to trigger Felix's companion quest? I'm like 20 hours in and have yet to get him to talk about it.

Here is a good guide on how to start his quest.

The achievement unlocks after completing all the companions' recruitment quests and follow-on companion quests. There are six companions. SAM only has a recruitment quest and no follow-on quest. Parvati has no recruitment quest, only has two follow-on quests. Felix only has a follow-on quest--he is recruited upon encountering him on Groundbreaker and talking to him a couple of times. The following list depicts all companions and the quests required for the achievement.
With the exception of SAM, talk to all the companions, periodically, to initiate their follow-on companion quests. There will be differences in when the quest becomes available depending on whether the Halcyon Path or the Phineas Path has been selected to progress through the story. In the case of Felix, it is also important that he have a favorable outlook on the player-character.
The follow-on companion quests are straightforward with the exception of Felix's. Felix is, sometimes, at risk to defect. He finds it hard to accept the expedient tactics of the player-character. If you do not have high determination &/or inspiration, always wear equipment that boosts the determination &/or inspiration skills when talking to Felix and, especially, when playing through his companion quest.
Armor with a determination bonus is easy to come by. Aramid Ballistics provides a variant of their standard troop armor with a Determination +7 bonus. Assuming one has the Armor Master perk that doubles armor and headgear bonuses (but not armor mod bonuses), the armor provides a 14 point determination bonus. The Improved Silver Tongue Kit mod would add an additional +10 leadership bonus--boosting both determination and inspiration by 10 points. Thus, the modded armor provides a 24 point Determination bonus. A Nice Hat (used in the Well Dressed achievement), with the Armor Master perk, provides an additional 10 points in each of the two leadership skills: Determination and Inspiration. Accordingly, the modded armor and A Nice Hat together provides 34 of the 40 points required to pass a Determination skill check to keep Felix in the party.
As stated earlier, it is highly beneficial to wear this equipment before speaking to Felix and when doing his companion quest. The best leadership helmet is the unique, named Honor Guard Headware. But that is only available on Eridanos late in the game and only if one is playing the Murder on Eridanos for The Outer Worlds. Most likely, one would have completed Felix's companion quest before it becomes available. However, it would be a great piece of equipment to use if Felix's companion quest were to be deferred to after the DLC. The following illustration depicts an assortment of equipment that boosts leadership and personality traits and, when worn, improves Felix's affinity towards the player-character:
It is possible to successfully complete Felix's companion quest with him making the decision to leave the ship's company and go with Harlow. This does not void the achievement but it removes a valuable companion from the party who can boost one's valuable persuade, locksmith, and sneak skills. If one has determination over 40, one can pass a dialog skill check to retain Felix as a companion.
The other companion quests are all straightforward. They are triggered by talking to the companions and then following the journal instructions and the quest markers to complete. When all the quests listed above have been completed, the achievement pops.
- Parvati: Drinking Sapphire Wine & Don't Bite The Sun
- Vicar Max: The Illustrated Manual & The Empty Man
- Felix: Friendship’s Due
- Ellie: Worst Contact & The Low Crusade
- SAM: The Cleaning Machine

There are a total of 10 companion quests in the game. I would suggest following the Achievement Walkthrough that I wrote, which will help you follow through these quests, since some will last for nearly half the game and multiple planets. The quests, and when you first acquire them, are as follows:

I took Felix with me on the mission “The Woman Without a Face.” on the first floor after negotiations with the second mercenary, there is another NPC on the same floor. After negotiations with him, Felix outlined the task. (On supernova, if you kill the cartographer yourself, Felix gets offended and his quest has not started for me)

If Felix tells you that he will not work with you while you are with the College, then just make a save and pump up inspiration using the redistribution machine on the ship. Need 85 points

When completing the college quest chain, Felix was offended by me and did not give out his task. The solution is this: we redistribute experience points on the ship, pumping in 90 inspiration and 90 determination. We talk with Felix, two new answer options appear. Let's use it. Voila: the grudge is gone, and upon arrival at any location, he will wait at the gate of the ship and give out the quest.
