MMORPGs How they have changed for the better? or worse?

I, for one, do *NOT* have Rose-Colored Glasses on.

Old MMOs sucked where you HAD to have 10, 20+ people to do anything "meaningful" in the game. People just don't have that kind of time and schedules anymore with how today's world works. I know people go "but mah massively multiplayer world" but they conveniently forget how they would spend 10, 15, 30+ minutes waiting for everybody to be ready to go, or then you had random disconnects, people having to AFK, etc.

I still don't know what this means when people say it. What do you mean by 'people just don't have that kind of time and schedules anymore in today's world?' Are you saying they did back then? What changed, exactly? Probably you just became an adult when back then you were still in your teens/young adulthood.
