I hope Dawntrail brings this need to light finally.
Don't say that too loud! People are still complaining about "in from the cold" or the "this is Thancred" instance. Hells, people were malding over pre-nerf "Steps of Faith" being a bit of a challenge and requiring both cooperation, coordination and actually engaging with the mechanics of the instance.

Can't have gameplay potentially bar people from progressing, that is a big no no for this game - if people quit the game, they will never experience the story, so getting to the story needs to be as easy and straightforward as possible. Which is why some solo instances can be cleared without pressing a single button.

Its a shame, really.
