OMG this forced party content absolutely blows. Diablo should be a single player game. If I want group content, I’d play an MMO.

2-4 Players, can enter solo, Local Co-op unavailable, WTF is wrong with you devs, I get that all of you get a free copy of 40€ “worth” DLC, but you ask of me to buy it on 2 devices just so that I can get the full experience with my fellow gamer girl, we love playing ut co-op on huge TV competing who gets better gear, but dfaq is this money block???

To answer your question about reading. An icon shiwed up on map, no where did it say needs more than one to complete. So I enter run up to point of blue n yellow gate to find this barrier. So i google and get this thread. Everyone here complaining is correct. This is some 100% certified Bull stuff. Also whats a load of stuff is forcing us to run all the way out and no hearth available. Sometimes i think devs spend too much time with their head up their bums. You all must have known peeps would tried to solo. But noo you put this ignorant stuff into game, well played. Showing your truest potential for failure.

OP has a point, I have to admit I tried and got to the same point.
Then I had to list my run as IN progress in party finder to complete it, which we did.
I kind of get what blizzard are trying to do here, cool symmetrical content and more complex moving parts in boss fights (group A, group B stuff). But I agree, Diablo content should always be solo able.

I just ran into the same issue, so stupid. Why put a hard block for solo players? I can do the content on my own.

Just chiming in that it’s bullshit to force group content. Difficulty wise this is easy soloable, and it’s infuriating I need to group up in a game I play solo for every other second of, just to get through a dumb puzzle.
Just make mercs open it if you’re solo FFS.
Horrible decision by Blizzard.

that is the whole point of a solo player, we shouldn’t have to. I know me personally hate running with people I don’t know,
Blizzard DEVs if you’re NOT going to “fix” this quest to play solo, at least make it unavailable unless you’re already in a group. What’s the point to be able to enter solo if you won’t be able to finnish it? Be reasonable…

Well, blizz with this quest tells me to go fu** myself if i want to play solo. I will tell Bill back to fu** them ans stop with playing this sh**.
+1 That’s the best solution to avoid us getting frustrated. No group ? No entry. And while I’m writing, a disconnection occured : try to be serious. We PAID for this.

Blizzard - if you allow us to have companions, essentially, you are making group play optional. I play both - solo and group. Solo most of the time and then weekly I play with a group of friends. If you create companions for hire and a complete sub quest line for them, logically it would make sense that we would have to have another player OR a companion with us to complete the quest.
Beyond angry that Blizzard is dissing solo players. and they said there wouldn’t be any content not playable solo! NEVER, EVER, NEVER should any player be forced to group!
or allow players play whole content solo 
If i wanted to play in group i would play different succesful game
- some players do not want to play with someone (my case as well - hate multiplayer, because other players are too fast and I am trying only to catch them => hate this play-style)
- PS5 players without PS Plus cannot play with someone
i jus got to these barriers and i am so pissed off.
well all I can say is…you guys should have listened to the woman who takes you there for the first time. She tells you that you need a team to progress.
Don’t mis-understand, I don’t like forced MP either so don’t do it, but there are warnings saying you need a team to progress. I too chose to ignore those warnings and got to the infamous switches (couldn’t even teleport past lol),
There are also text warnings, I know this because I read that too.
It sucks that solo’s can’t do the content and I do want the Devs to address it.
