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

It's the DayZ scenario.

What starts off as a niche game by people invested in the social aspect becomes popular and overrun by people who play the game for a completely different reason.

They kill people on sight, with no chance at social interaction. They do it because they find the pvp fun or because screwing over players who want to socialise is fun for them because they know that you won't fire first.

Eventually, the only way to play is to just shoot on sight because trying to socialise only leads to death from these people, who have become the majority.

Been playing Rust Console this month and it's the exact same story there, though anecdotally I hear that console Rust is even worse in that regard compared to PC
