I fear that these games like Cyptokitties and the trading of meme coins is responsible for the congestion in the ETH network and the high fees. That's a serious problem as it's almost inconceivable that ETH could handle the load coming from gaming. There could be thousands and thousands of games on the ETH network in just a few years.

you are actually wrong about Axie, since they migrate to Layer-2 blockchain, Ronin, which is on top of Ethereum, and does not make a network congestion at all, it is processing transactions on their own, just secure it through Ethereum blockchain
Axie is actually getting really big, I bought some AXS few months ago, and it is rising steady, while waiting for airdrop to happen, snapshot was somewhere in October, and airdrop should happen these days
it is a good game, and there are some people in south-east Asia that live on play-to-earn economy with this game
Ok my fault then and good to know that Axie is going for a solution that doesn't get the ETH blockchain stuck. There are so many meme coins and what not that all run on top of ETH. Useless usage of the tx capacity.
what is congesting the ETH network is high load and trading, mostly, you can check out here:

Uniswap and 1inch are usually among the biggest gas spenders
as some said Axie has fully moved to Ronin, their L2 scaling solution, so its not the main responsible for eth congestion,
anyways we want more people to be able to use ethereum and make it possible to scale for the whole world, right?
I think with the amount of new dapps being tolled out the door every day ronin sidechain should be used much more than what we see now, maybe casinos, decentralized exchanges and coin swap pools should move all of the load over to sidechain to taper off the pressure in Ethereum arteries. Coz if it keeps booming and purling ethereum ecosystem will slip in the shower.
