There was someone or something that said that despite how much communication in general has evolved over the years, we are more closed off than ever. Everyone is all about their personal goals that you may as well treat this game as a glorified single player mode with the AI behavior set to RNG. No one is asking to strike up a conversation, but a simple hello or a quick blurb about whatever topic is on hand makes the experience far more enjoyable or at least tolerable. People are less likely to rage quit if there's a bit of friendly chatter every now and then.
