Do you like to shame people for eating at restaurants alone as well? It's actually quite nice to be able to just sit there and enjoy your meal with no distractions. This isn't all that different. For all intents and purposes, I've been playing this game alone even before all this duty support stuff. I've done it for years. I can get so much done and never have to get into any real conversations with people and just enjoy the game. I also want to get comfortable with the game before I try anything that might require more time with people. What I do has little to no bearing on you or most people. The same goes in the reverse. What's the actual harm in letting single-player fans in the game? Given the chance, I think many might consider dipping their toes into the multiplayer side of things, especially while running around this world.

There’s a difference between a restaurant and an mmo. Restaurants typically aren’t advertised as a group thing at least not any i’ve gone to. The problem with the single player pushing is that it affects the multiplayer content. We saw this with the second ex trial this expansion where to make it fitted for trusts, they had to simplify many of the mechanics. There’s also the problem of resource cost. The resources put towards the single player pushing affects the time and resources that could be giving other content. It’s not free, and it affects everyone.

Excuse me? The second EX trial? Either way, that's a poor example. Even the normal mode was very difficult for people to grasp. I remember explaining her job changes multiple times and people were still just -derp-. There's so much that people playing right now could learn by running trust, but they're basically just sitting there hitting buttons for actions they haven't read. I know this because some actually admitted it.
