It's not the old COD lobbies they miss... They miss the feeling of "Becky, from maths class, not liking them" being their biggest problem. (lemmy.ml)

Same deal with MMO players. They don't miss "the social aspect of MMOs", they miss the novelty of sitting around with like-minded degenerates in a cool-looking chatroom until the dungeon queue pops.

Honestly tho we have lost the social aspect of MMOs. Back when WoW came out you didn't have shit like Discord, where all communication for every game lives now. At best you had TeamSpeak but for the most part communication was done primarily in the game. Combine that with zones and quests that have you killing the same mobs for hours in an empty field and people actually chatted quite a lot more than they do nowadays. We've kind of optimized out the natural communication in MMOs and idk if we'll ever be able to get it back really.
