I guess Sega and Tencent pulling out was the straw that broke the old camel's lousy back!

Bigger than what? If anything, a lot of these gaming companies are much smaller than they were in years past.

What?
Bigger players only has become bigger. Smaller players are now irrelevant unless they are allied with bigger publishers, like Devolver Digital. And COVID hysteria had shown that it is possible to market stuff without giant expos. Add to that companies losing money in a post-Covid world and there is definitely no interest in paying 3rd party to make and expo, if they can do it themselves.
