It's basically proof that at long last, no one really likes or has time for the entire social premise behind MMORPG's and before that, DnD itself, and if given a choice they will just fuck around with soloable versions of said worlds.

due to reduced attention spans and smart phones DnD in person became more an exercise in restraining oneself to not reach over the table to strangle a mother fucker for going "huh, oh my turn? what's going on".
classic eq had the best balance of streamlining that shit away while still having meaningful downtime and socializing and then the genre at some point turned into mashing and cycling f1 - f10 and watching dps meters and min/maxing which inevitably leads to people soloing or boxing instead of socializing and relying on/with random other people.
so it's mostly just the vast majority of people playing wrong is my point i guess.
