I think Indie gaming becomes more mainstream gaming.

The Publishers are going to pay their price for their risk-aversity.

But the gamers are also pying a price : Those who always wanted graphics over everything else - including story - and those who demanded high-costgrapics (and possibly full voiceover, too), are now paying the price for demanding/driing "the inditry" into cost regions no-one can bear anymore.

nd people just don't want all o that stuff. The casual gamer doesn't need or wat top-notch graphics. He or she wants top-notch gameplay !

I think that this illustrates "gaming industry vs. casual gamers" very good :

Provocating said, the "industry" listened to the "hardcore gamer" too much, and perhaps now the casual gamers are turning towards Indies instead, I guess.
