I think that it was almost a year ago(?), YoshiP said something that they were looking at (before Solo & Unsync options were added to Duty Finder I think) is having GC followers that can join you in Dungeons for solo, instead of looking for live players.

Not very confident it's going to happen though.. the dungeon navigation with followers can work. We've had MSQ quest where NPCs follow and fight with us, that AI is practically finished already (Choco AI too). But the boss fights, they may have underestimated how much new AI scripts would be needed or how many boss mechanics would need to be removed to get many bosses playable solo with NPC followers.

I'd appreciate it though if they got it to work, hope for it too
