Doubt the hobby will die in its entirety. There will never be another crash because there's just too many "fans" who buy any old crap again and again.
Look at preorder. While I do not agree with what he always said Totalbiscuit coined house biscuit - we do not preorder and I wholeheartedly agree. I only ever preorder the next expansion of FF(which I was gonna play anyways 100%), I haven't preordered any game in years otherwise.
Look at gacha, it's one of the worst things that just keeps being pushed to the point where people pay thousands to roll for their waifus.i have yet to see any sense in playing gacha. I tried azur lane for a bit, never paid and felt beyond underwhelmed by the genre. Its just boring and people pay for this?!
Look at loot boxes like fifa ultimate team where they STILL rake in the big bucks.
I doubt another crash is gonna happen, all the consumers are their worst enemy with no advocate for change in the media(worse, they want to make games even shittier).
