There is no such thing as too big to fail. Take a look at the auto industry a decade ago. They were pulling some very similar bullshit with their cars. The major differences here is there are no corrupt unions or government bailouts. What will likely happen is as these companies die off from self destruction, EA and Bethesda the two front-runners in this trend. New and fresh companies like CD Project Red will take their place. The whole purpose of a contraction in the market like this in completely normal. Excesses like monitzation are purged to make way for the next generation. Hopefully some of our favorite devs will weather this storm, but I am certain that a few household names will be consigned to history.
