I’d love to write written guides for games, but… how do I monetize it? YT is by far the most effective monetization. Written guides don’t earn any money, especially since everyone uses an adblocker now. Nobody would pay to read a written guide, unless it’s a book.
Because I also hate YT guides, I just started writing them. But nobody cared, nobody read them. I got more views on a 2-hour YT video without any commentary than I got on a written guide. There is no fun writing a guide if it doesn’t help anyone and doesn’t get me any feedback. Youtube gets me views and feedback, and it might actually earn me money. So I cave, and make a video (video is still pending). I’ve made a very basic YT guide and it got me way more views, “likes”, upvotes and comments than any written guide, and it took me much less time to create. There is even potential for monetization, I’m close to 1000 subs on YT. Written guides? There is no point putting ads on there, they will be blocked (also i hate ads and you should block them)
PS: The written guide is here: https://tobyhinloopen.github.io/anno1800-guide/ - It’s even interactive.
You get downvoted hard, but I’m not sure why. I think we all agree that putting someone into prison for an abortion is controversial at best. However, 20 weeks into pregnancy… that’s only 2 weeks before it’s considered to have a chance of survival at a premature birth.
At one point does it become murder? What if you kill your child right after a premature birth? I’m sure we all agree that’s bad. So it’s okay to kill the child if it’s inside the womb, but not once it gets out? You have to put a limit somewhere, and you have to enforce that limit or you might as well not set it.
Again, I’m not against abortions, but 20 weeks… man… that’s rough.
