YouTube veteran MeganPlays shifts back to long-form content over TikTok revenue concerns

Professional evolution

Letter’s career has evolved alongside a broader trend in the creator economy, where veterans are increasingly moving away from high-production “TV quality” trends in favour of “raw” and authentic content. For Letter, this has included a focus on the Roblox videos that originally built her audience.

The transition follows a period of significant personal and professional change. In 2025, Letter experienced a divorce from fellow creator Zach Letter, which resulted in a shift in her business role at their studio. The split was a major talking point within the gaming industry, particularly following public apologies from other creators involved in the surrounding timeline of events.

Lessons for aspiring creators

Letter now offers specific advice for aspiring creators, focusing on niche selection and data-driven growth:

  • Niche focus: Rather than being a generalist, she suggests new starters focus on a specific niche within a platform, such as a single game, to build a loyal core audience before expanding.

While she acknowledges that starting a channel today is daunting, Letter maintains that for those looking to build a viable business, the depth and loyalty found in long-form content are essential components of success.
