Title says it all Let's say as our POD that Scott Cawthon is completely discouraged by his failures and decides to leave game development altogether. What happens? Granted, Pewdiepie was already the most subscribed star of Youtube but I imagine, while Markiplier would still be very popular(He was already in the high 200s by this point and growing rapidly.), He may not rise to the Top 100, let alone the Top 10. While Let's Plays would most likely remain popular, Horror LPs specifically might drop off a bit. Another game might jump in to fill the Horror Void like the Amnesia sequel A Machine For Pigs. Game Theory is gonna have a much harder time getting major without a big vein to hit. How would this effect the Indie Game community as a whole? Maybe Minecraft remains more popular in LPs. Who knows? Maybe Undertale could slot in a year afterwards and become TTL's Hyper-Analyzed Indie Sensation of the late 2010s. Your thoughts?
