if i did i would say we are in the ending phase of a technology race between developers to get their new shiny shit out as fast as possible and lure kids in with graphix and toys

thats still going on (hurr durr look at how much money we spent on lara croft's hair) but today we are seeing more success and longevity in those games with huge worlds, heavy content, or enormous potential for customization .. hell we are even still playing the original classics

devs must be noticing and discussing it

maybe im being too optimistic, but yeah, i think as more gamers get fed up with lack of content and become vocal about it, devs will start responding. either that or these gamers will just grow up and design their own shit
free the code, and our asses will follow. Subscription games willbe a luxury item we will checkout; pay toplay games will all turn into games about farming; and gamers, mainly?

This here is the future. We will go were the lore and content is, and be able to "flash populate" servers.

Really, all of us are bored with "Big Games" right? -- we just want reliable, solid worlds with populations and solid mechanics and content. No need to go through the big companies for much longer.

Yes, I coined the phrase, "flash populations." And you are there...
