> more studios going bankrupt
studios that don't make good games correctly should bankrupt - ala, those so called AAA studios.
> gamers spending more for less
gamers buying overpriced games from bad publishers/studios that overspend and under-deliver are learning finally.
There has never been more indie games, and the selection has never been more diverse, and those available games has also been cheaper.

You seem to be missing that I'm describing the effects of Valve's massive %30 tax on the game industry. There are studios that would've survived and continued making games people enjoy if Valve had less market power and charged %10-%15. There are dollars gamers would've saved instead of spent if that tax was lower.
