I think it's pretty clear that competitive multiplayer games are the gaming zeitgeist (On the PC). Rust, Destiny 2, GTA V + mod, and Football Manager are the only titles in this list that are really played in a non-competitive manner.
Now, its true that in terms of copies sold, competitive multiplayer games are not quite as dominant.
