>The main reason is that there isn't enough competition. Video Game Companies are pretty much in a monopoly. I'm sorry, but this is completely wrong. First, there is immense amounts of competition in video games; the industry is bigger than ever but there are so many companies and even small fry indie shops can make it big with talent and a bit of luck. Second, there are tons of GTA/Doom/CSGO/sports games clones, licensing notwithstanding, that fail for various reasons that usually boil down to "bad game." Brand popularity matters, sure, but many studios blasted their way to huge sales and fame through having a damn good game, like Minecraft, Terraria, and Rocket League, to name a few. There's so little barrier to entry in the gaming industry at the moment. If you make a good game, you will generally get tons of sales.
