Re: Hate Thread
You can create content with the drive of money in mind, while still not necessarily making money just yet. If you look at a lot of the fetish transform-y text games floating around, you might notice that some have the potential to, or already have turned into fully fledged funded employment for the creator(s). Keeping that in mind, you could put your entire spirited effort into making a game/video/story/content or whatever in order to prove your ability, then market your second piece of content with the fame and proof of ability of the first as your sails.
You *could* try using a single game and a demo, but the problem with that is that not nearly as many people will spread and share a limited demo. More than that, people might get frustrated and disregard it or leave unnecessarily negative comments behind. Meetn'Fuck started as a monetarily orientated project right from the beginning I'm pretty sure, and they only made their intended move once they garnered the popularity they needed in order to pull it off. AKA: Making a pay2play subscription site.
Edit: Not to mention on top of that, they improved their quality in terms of art and animation considerably. Say what you want about their crappy "game" mechanics, but they made a big jump in variation and style the moment they became a p2p site.
