Definitely an interesting question I myself have thought over many times.

I believe that creepypasta is far from dead. However, as Crashing pointed out, "The days of the "Lost Episode" or the "Video Game pasta" are dead. Any story coming out these days about either subject is pretty much just flogging a dead horse," I completely agree. There have been way too many of those, and I think they need a long, long rest. I don't even think there are any more shows to do lost episodes on anymore...

On the contrary, I think that some of the originals, i.e. The Russian Sleep Experiment, Ted the Caver, and The Holders are going to be popular until creepypasta eventually dies out.

Also, the only reason I would believe that creepypasta's demise is happening within the next couple of years is because most of the pastas I see today are usually unoriginal and have terrible endings, and I don't see many diamonds in the rough. I surely hope, however, that authors such as myself can continue coming up with ideas that can fuel this wonderful Internet sensation for years to come.
