Dual Destiny is problematic

So watching the controversy from the sidelines, I gotta put my voice in with the criticism. The quest isn't problematic for me, as I have a reliable partner for it that I converse comfortably with. My issue is that it's problematic [i]for other people[/i]. The first issue is that this quest's communication requirements creates a hurdle for disabled people that can be frustrating on PC and nigh impossible on console. They might not be able to hear or speak well enough to meet vocal communication requirements and will need to use a keyboard while simultaneously trying not to get booted back to orbit. What this means is there are players who physically [i]cannot complete this quest[/i], and thus can never get the class items. That isn't fair to them. But that's not only what the criticism is. No, the controversy is that this is the only - [i]only[/i] - activity in the game with a mandatory team size that isn't matchmade. People are allowed to play alone, regardless of their reasons or lack thereof. So it's an "MMO", big whoop; it doesn't change the fact that this mission is gatekept from them because "reasons". Just because [i]you[/i] don't have a problem with the quest doesn't mean there [i]isn't[/i] one.
