Can we get an andro-/gyno-phobia mode added?

I don't get it either but I suppose we'll see more players with such a mentality now that Yoshi-P has declared that he intends the bulk of the game to be a single player experience.

do WHAT!?

It's something he has brought up in some recent interviews and Live Letters. He seems to believe that there's a lot of players just waiting to try the game who are intimidated by the fact that it is a multiplayer experience. That's the main reasoning behind the Trust system and older dungeons/quests being reworked to be more solo friendly.

Personally I'd prefer a bit more focus on existing veteran players but based on even earlier statements it doesn't seem like Yoshi-P has much faith in the MMO genre as a whole. Which is a shame, since I firmly believe that once one launches that isn't afraid to be a bit bolder it'll prove to be a massive success.

I genuinely hope he reconsiders it. you can't have an MMO without the multiplayer.
