I think there are a few reasons why. Before, you used to join a party, start a convo, make a few friends, bitch about how slow leveling was. Also, you took a while to get a party, especially if you played one of the rejected jobs, so when you got one you were really excited.

Now days when you join a party most people are a bunch of zombies. People are afk or silent, and at least for me, it feels kinda dead. I used to enjoy the talking, the conversation, it kept your mind off of the fact your just standing around hitting things for hours on end, and kept you entertained. Now that its hard to find a party like that, I myself feel like its just me, which makes it practically feel like soloing, which is not the feel I want when I do a party, otherwise I would not have joined it. Now it feels more like I am dragging myself through it because I no longer have that conversation or something to keep me occupied.
