AAA games can't keep existing at these budgets therefore developers are either gonna redefine the budget for AAA games or their gonna flat out not exist. Money is holding back almost everything.

Good point. What's happening here in front of our very eyes, is much like the realestate market. No middle ground, its either high budget or indie games. That's not healthy.

That middle ground always existed, sadly it sells the worst and nobody wants it. Indie games are the only excuse for a game not to look like a AAA game.
