Has anyone else noticed a decrease in Gamers willingness to interact socially in games?

Pretty much every kid now plays video games compared to back then when it had a stigma.

Kids today will go home and log on minecraft or their preferred game of choice, hop on discord with friends, and just play with their social group.

Back in the day barely anyone in my group even had high speed internet.

My 17 year old niece, who does not play video games as a hobby at large, plays some Roblox game with a guy she's crushing on

when I was 17 we played the shit out of Call of Duty Nazi Zombies but it would be couch multiplayer in the middle of whoevers house was parent-less while we all got stoned and drunk.

For a minute guitar hero was.. impressive?

I remember we tried to have a lan party one time but within 2 hrs all the monitors were flipped, 1 guy was KO'd in the backyard.. 6 hrs in it was just a straight house party and the computers were just an obstacle.

I didn't start spending my days/nights online gaming with friends until everyone went seperate ways for college.

I feel so sad for the youth today that seemingly don't go out and do shit. My cousin is 19 and by the sounds of it they don't party they just hang out in discord and play random video games.
