Always had ambitions and schizo visions of creating a children's cartoon. I honestly believe I ruined my life holding on to this dream. My main regret is spending so much time fantasizing instead of actually making it, as a result I'm still /beg/ and didn't make anything until a couple of years ago when I should have started when I was in high school
But I flat out have nothing else to look forward to in life so I'll keep grinding independently. Currently animating a second episode to it

To be at a level artistically where I don't feel inhibited by my abilities when working on project whether personal or professional, and of course to be working professionally - whether that's independent or for a company - but making a living doing this in some capacity.

And of course, finishing at least a few of my personal project, too.

>At least one of my games gets frontpaged on Newgrounds
These days I have so much more respect people who upload their games onto newgrounds or for free on itchio - so many hacks make their first shitty small game and release it for $5 on steam.

So many dickheads just consumed all the free shit others passionately put out there, were heavily inspired and influenced by that stuff, and then never gave back in the same way.
I get not putting years of work out for free, but the little experiments and practice before you have a real go?... Come the fuck on.

>just gibsmedat for free
In the current internet and financial economy, if you want people to just put time and effort for nothing in return, you're genuinely part of the problem.
If any of you fags could monetize your breathing, you'd fucking do it.

Now post your work; which is probably porn or some shit.
>>
>>7799848
>if you want people to just put time and effort for nothing in return
Sure, if you ignore the end product, and the skills and knowledge gained from it, and the possible audience and connections made through its release.
Also you completely ignored my qualifiers:
>"so many hacks make their first shitty small game and release it for $5 on steam."
>"I get not putting years of work out for free, but the little experiments and practice before you have a real go?"
I put those in because otherwise morons would think I'm saying any and all creative efforts should be free, but I should have accounted for extra stupid morons who would ignore that and continue with that assumption anyway.

>If any of you fags could monetize your breathing, you'd fucking do it.
I wouldn't, but I'm sure you would.
Sounds like it'd fuck the economy and make everyone miserable, as we'd have to all pay each other for breathing.

>Now post your work
PYW bros never go first, and never request work from posts that would actually be reasonable to ask it from. What part of my post comes across as authoritative on drawing, or as if I had some high degree of knowledge in art? I merely spoke about when I feel it's appropriate to demand compensation for your work.
>which is probably porn or some shit.
That's probably the real goal of your post. I'm not giving you more temptations buddy. November is nearly over, hold on for just a bit longer!

>My RPG maker game is worth ten dollars. I know what I've got.

No one is pointing a gun to your head forcing you to buy every 5 dollar rpgmaker slop on impulse, you retarded piggy.
Inform yourself before you spend money and don't blame it on the "hacks".

Yeah, yeah, 5 bucks in latinxland finances the whole economy for a month, but how is that anyone else's problem?

And since you didn't post work, you clearly don't even draw.
Just another coom piggy looking for free shit.

I just want my work to look decent enough to me. Once I get there, I will just draw whatever I feel like and maybe make money from it.

Unreal copium is make a Kamen Rider inspired graphic novel
Second more realistic goal is just get to the level of drawing that I can feel good about
Third is maybe draw porn on the side and masturbate to it then hide it. Maybe when I die and the next person remodels this place they can find thousands of pictures of porn in the walls

I agree with you, I am entirely sick of so many games being "free" but are demos for a steam page. I do miss just browsing the internet and having good free and interesting games to play, and I really respected the people who put them out.
To me it feels like I took from and was inspired by so many games back then, that I want to give back to others who deserve quality intersting and free entertainment. So in the end I share your exact sentiment lol
I want to make people happy playing mine like I was happy playing all those back then

Curious that the ones who feel entitled to the work of others for free, don't post their work whenever they can because it would show how extremely hypocritical they are.

I'm also creating a game but I think that I'm much further ahead. I'm working on a hentai game and a safe for work game on the back burner. It's hard doing it yourself cause I'm realizing now that I'm not that good at character design. I write the story, characters, art, and programming myself.
I would like to earn patreon money from this but nobody subscribes to my patreon. It's there blocking people's access but I'm not that aggressive with forcing people to join it. So just something that ya'll should consider in the long run.
When all else fails I'm just going to bash current popular streamers in my games plot.
Usually people ask me shitty questions like "why should I play your game?"
I hate this... I don't know. Go ask your mom. Sometimes I'll link them a wikipage.
I got off topic. If this game stuff doesn't work out for me, I'm just going to fuck with people.

>Retards like you also scream how socialism would fix everything when they get the same treatment you're portraying.
Actually I'm a fairly big proponent of capitalism, and feel rather strongly that the alternatives are retarded - much like how I think you are retarded.
Just because I don't think sucking dick in a dark alleyway during your day off (and really leveraging those personal ass-ets) as a side hustle, is a good thing to do; does not make me anti-capitalist.
The issue is that low IQ morons (You) seem to think that any nuanced take on capitalism, such as not leaving your morals or dignity at the door, or the mindset of making money 'no matter what it takes' to be bad, is a condemnation of it.

>I feel like you should post your work. Why aren't you following your own rules and obliging me?
I feel like you should be following your own rules and offering to pay me to post my work. What are you, a socialist or something?
And again, what would posting my work prove or disprove? What part of my argument would be backed up by the quality of my work?
Again, pyw bros are never willing to post their work first, and always demand work from discussions that wouldn't benefit from it in any way.

>>7800093
Eh, I'm here to shoot the shit with random strangers anyway, so what difference does it make?
I'm either talking to a retard, or a troll 'pretending' to be one, but the conversation is the same anyway.

In addition to just drawing/painting a piece that I illicits a response similar to what I see of the masters, I also have a desire to develop my game trilogy.

Sometimes I have delusions of them becoming these masterpieces, but honestly, I just want to create something I'm proud of and have the vision I have be reality. Even if I'm the only one who really plays them

>Idk, with AI now a thing, doing this as an actual job is out of the question
Valid, but I also think it's a bit doomer pilled.
Personally, I think AI will mean more jobs in art, and AI will never really be able to replace people, but who knows what the future holds in that regard - only a few years ago, it seemed like AI would never be able to touch the arts, and the arts were recommended as a job safe from ever being made redundant... oh how that changed.
