The future of the particle physics is critically dependent on feasibility of future energy frontier colliders. The concept of the feasibility is complex and includes at least three factors: feasibility of energy, feasibility of luminosity, and feasibility of cost and construction time. Here we discuss major beam physics limits of ultimate accelerators, take a look into ultimate energy reach of possible future colliders. We also foresee a looming paradigm change for the HEP research as the thrust for higher energies by necessity will mean lower luminosity.
