Rules:
- 1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
- 2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

I think we're still a ways off from this happening.
Populations are still growing and many countries GDPs are increasing too lifting more people out of poverty each year.
Eventually I think games will die off one by one as people age out and it's not popular for younger audiences.
Finally in the end there will be 3 or 4 games owned by 2 companies fighting it out for complete control of consumers
As long as there are people who want to make games there will be indy game development going on.
I'm not talking regular games but the microtransaction hell holes big publishers are pushing now
