next dominant video game genre in my opinion

[Veknoid_Outcast]

First of all, congratulations on your first thread

Secondly, I think you might be right. I don't know if a single genre will dominate, but I could definitely see more and more games, from different genres, explore open worlds. The technology of today allows dynamic open worlds more easily; publishers can sell its "limitless" possibilities; and consumers seem to respond to the freedom and diversity that come with this type of virtual world.
