The eventual "death" of the action-packed FPS
Samo:
Most real RPG's are doomed. Now we have the short simplified stuff like Mass Effect. What a drag.

The adventure genere practicaly died at some recent point (though is returning somewhat). This death spanned roughly the release of Doom to the kickstarter event that really kickstarted Kickstarter.
Eventualy something will become even more popular than the FPSes (and generic military shooter fad) we have now. What is your take on this?

I dont think the adventure genre is dead, it's just not called adventure anymore because it's pretty much intergrated into RPG's. But it really depends on what you consider adventure, is it free roam?
Then:
Zelda
TES
Fallout
STALKER
Witcher
Just Cause
Or a kind of linear with scripted events?
Magicka
Bastion
Psychonauts
Even Cave Story

I concur, just because it's not a side scroller or a beat em up like Bastion doesn't mean it doesn't contain many of the traits that makes an adventure game, erhm adventurous.

Yes.
Puzzle games keep me entertained for a good 2 hours.
