    You went straight from "I don't agree with this playstyle" to a multi paragraph "Woe is me! I'm trying to help people but all they care about what they want! Im just going to be a robot in parties now because no one likes help anymore!" You don't need to be a robot, there are many ways to help a party. When I first ran O8 for the my cohealer was the only person who had done it before. As everyone announced "new", "first time", "{same}" etc, they popped a champagne bottle and told us we were in for a pretty fight. On patch morning seeing someone that upbeat and excited was all I needed to dive in.

    This tier ends is a highly anticipated fight involving a very popular character, and you only get the high of beating him for the first time once (technically twice if you're running savage I suppose, but the vast majority of us will never see him there). In a week everyone will expect everyone else to have every mechanic down by heart- if you offer advice it'll likely be received a whole lot better then, and even now you are still free to offer help...just don't be crushed if people turn you down. Its not a "the community doesn't care about helping each other" deal as much as "the community wants to enjoy that new car smell while its here" one.

    I still haven't entered sigmascape it'll probably be tomorrow before I do. but if people start spouting out spoilers as soon as I enter i'll just hide party chat. for pretty much the reason above. it's brand new content. and as was said in earlier in the thread you shouldn't have to mess about with party finders to do a blind run in the first week of the patch. especially with it being story level content.

    we're not even a week into the patch and i'd also assume many of the more casual people probably wont try sigma till the weekend.
