If you're okay with grouping for dungeons then I don't understand what's the big deal about using group finder for night market.

So, I’m requesting a full refund. If they refuse, I’ll be issuing a chargeback. Yes I know that’s a permanent ban. So if that happens, folks it’s been real.
Wait you get a permanent ban if you do a chargeback?

This content does not encourage group play, it enforces group play.
Encouraging involves inspiring, which can be done through providing benefits. Enforcing involves force, which can be pushing or by removing other options.
To give an example, consider Heresy of Ignorance. Strange Obelisks are scattered across the map, and you need to disrupt 3 of them and kill the boss. When in a group, you get credit for every Strange Obelisk any member of your group disrupts. This encourages group play because the quest is done more quickly in a group. If 3 Strange Obelisks had to be disrupted within 1 minute, it would be unfeasible for a solo player to do it, and thus this would enforce group play.
Likewise, Night Market does not encourage group play to gain the benefits of faster and smoother progress, it enforces group play by making progress unfeasible for solo play.
You can still participate and do some stuff solo, even without fighting. I tested it myself for fun, a thief character can do races, loot hidden chests/heavy sacks (the ones that are counting towards pursuit) and all these "find missing persons/relics/etc" things. And of course, the big prize - Night's Den house - is unlocked automatically. You can also opportunistically join any boss fights and skirmishes.
That is actually more solo content compared to a typical Q1 dlc dungeon pack.
Can you reach 5000 reputation solo ?
We don't get credit for 1000 or 2000 or 3000. It's 5000 or you get Nothing.
