I would add again that I don't see the videogame industry collapsing. I see, unlike the 1980s, videogames are established as part of the culture now, and entrenched. What I will say is that it needs to struggle to find itself, to figure out the way to be able to deliver value, without bankrupting itself. It has to back off the want to be like Hollywood, and focus on what is sustainable. It has to move away from big budget gambles, to other things.
The thing that is likely going to happen is the idea of building communities to back games, or at least I hold out hope that is the direction, because it is self-serving on my part. I say that also, from trying to figure out what it would take to get smaller games to grab hold and succeed. I see the money is in communities, more than the games themselves.
