Self-Destructing Community?

[Defias]

@OP
You pretty much hit the nail on the head .
This community is self defeating, sometimes so much that SE has to tweek/change things to stifle/attempt to fix things.
Yet then the community likes to complain about when SE responds/tries to fix things about it.

1.
Folks seem to dislike when new players don't know anything even on the launch day of new content.
As folks have already stated:
"Guides are out in mere hours after a patch."

Solution:
Now...I personally think SE should just attach an official walkthrough to every Dungeon, Trial, & Raid.
While selecting/unlocking the dungeon/trial for the very first time in the DF, the game should replace the Queue button with a button that forced you to watch the official walkthrough. Once watched in entirety the game will allow you to queue.
After that a new button will appear after Map on the dungeon/Trial/Raid description that allows you to watch the ingame official walkthrough.

But..then this community would complain that SE has taken all the surprise out of content, & that it's holding the hands of "bads" by teaching them before they run the content, and now the game have been dumbed down even more.

2.
Once the NPC companion/group system comes out so players can run dungeons & Trials without other players this'll no longer be an issue atleast.
Atleast then players can experience the content freshly, at their own pace (no need to treat dungeons as a constant speed run/mass pull everything, maybe even *gasp* read the lore inside the dungeons), and not have to worry about endangering, hindering, and/or holding up others.
It would not eliminate all the "bads", but it would cut out a noticeable large chunk of them.

But then...the community would complain that this is an MMORPG and as a result folks should be forced to socialize, communicate, and etc with other players.
Despite the fact it likes to constantly remind itself how much it hates players not knowing any mechanics, learning for the 1st time, not being perfect in rotation/dodging/etc, and how it resents communicating with itself because of ___.

I cannot wait for the NPC groupmates, I believe it's supposed to be GC recruits or something to come out.

Yeah, some folks will treat the game as a Single player rpg, and some folks will just focus on the NPC as their groupmates.
But honestly the MSQ IS honestly pretty much already a Single player RPG as our groupmates are barely mentioned if ever.
And for players who want to experience dungeons in a more casual manner such as reading Lore notes/watching cutscenes, not mass pulling the whole dungeon, skipping stuff, and rushing to the end; this will be a god send.

But folks will riot about it. But now adays MMOS are going more and more this way.

I personally wish they' d just give us Solo versions of all Dungeons, & Trials (Ala ESO) that award us half of what the group version awards.
Then folks could "learn" the content and or farm/grind it and not anger other players in the process.
Those who want a group experience and/or better rewards (just like Raiding) could run the group version.
Those who want to avoid the drama/problems of groups, take their sweet time, or don't mind having to run a dungeon atleast twice to equal a "group" run now have the option.

And folks would hate this as they'll say:
"This is an MMO. Solo versions shouldn't exist of anything. Be social."

So basically the community can,be summed up in the statement of:

"I don't want to have others in my party who don't play the game exactly how I want to play it; as I don't want to teach/explain/carry them. But I also don't want them to be able to avoid ruining my experience, let alone have an option to do the content without communicating with me, so I can belittle/berate them and make them feel bad & explain why my way is the only way."
