He stopped making funny cartoons for his retarded soap box with brain dump

His pastel horse videos were peak
>>
>>150990860

Because a lot of his work is just "DUDE, I TOOK THIS THING FOR KIDS AND PUT VIOLENCE, SWEARING AND SEX IN IT! I'M SO ORIGINAL AND SUBVERSIVE!"
>>
>>150990860
cant work in a team and doesnt put his own original ideas out there.
>>
>>150990860
Wacky Game Jokez 4kids came out around the time kids were more interested in story and lore. Instead of capitalizing on that, Max insisted it remain a stagnant comedy show where characters don't progress and he just continues hammering in his hatred of Newgrounds flash and Brawl Taunts as the overall message.

Contrary to popular belief, he’s not actually blacklisted from the industry, he actually did freelance work as a board artist on a SpongeBob episode, and you can easily tell which parts he did.
https://spongebob.fandom.com/wiki/Boss_for_a_Day/gallery

I think IRRC he’s just admitted himself that he’s unfit to run a whole show cause he’s lazy or something. I also don’t think he’s as funny as he used to be, idk if it’s middle school humor his horse show parodies were funny AF.
>>
>>150990860
He clung to his mental issues instead of overcoming them.
Plus Zach knows a lot of green and retired people and Vivzie is a slam pig.
>>
>>150991941
His works were always on the morbid side, Wacky Game Jokez 4kids was strangely dark and morbid and just a mouth piece for his attitude at times. Much like his current show Brain Dump where he kind of just has these talks with himself. IMO, he peaked when he was doing those MLP parody skits which were some top quality animation and showed he could actually achieve more than his other stuff. He has the skills to do some amazing things, but I think he's done for, last I heard he had some kinda medical condition now that causes him to be unable to draw I think?

He absolutely could, he is a great artist.
I reckon he just felt overwhelmed by it all.

Trying to see what I believe may be his point of view, the time came where he was no longer a young man doing funny parodies on the internet for the lulz, he may have started to believe he had to be 'more adult', to do more 'serious' stuff, to either go out there and have a job in the industry working for someone in someone else's show, or to try and do something else in a way he believed was more mature.
Assuming there is some logic in this wild guess, I guess both options weren't very appealing to him. He wanted to do what he wanted, but at the same time, he felt like he shouldn't, which ultimately hindered his creative process, freedom, and joy in making stuff.

It's just a guess though, I don't have anything to back or confirm this.

I can see him write and storyboard a Smiling Friends episode, for sure. And voice a character as well.

Zach was openly buddy buddy with shadman and worked in the industry fine, because he's great to work with. It all comes down to Max being too much of a spiteful loner to get anything done with other people. You can be a dictator with your vision, and you have to be or you end up like Sugar, but at the end of the day you can't do everything alone.

>built his reputation on obnoxious tryhard edgelord humor for redditors
>pivoted to unfunny animated shorts
>pivoted again to extremely high effort solo projects that were ostensibly meant to be reviews/video essays, but ended up being self-flagellation pity parties about how lonely and retarded he is and how he hates himself and also painfully dragged out gags about drinking cum
>gives up on the one thing people actually kinda liked and becomes a fucking streamer instead
>>
>>150994103
>or you end up like Sugar
You mean hijacking other people's shows and then for your own show at the end, let the writers do whatever they want?

Because having the base level of competency required to successfully animate something isn't enough.

He didn't break out like Zach because he isn't funny. Like, at all. He has no fucking clue how comedy works. He didn't break out like Vivzie because, despite the fact that she can only create godawful sparkledog horseshit, she has an incredibly keen eye for spotting particular demographics and then tailoring her content to appeal specifically to them (generally speaking, theater kids and people who have made being queer into their entire personality). HDD has no idea what the fuck anyone wants or likes so he just makes shit that only appeals to him and people exactly like him (of which there are not enough to build a successful animation career from).

And on a personal note, that nose ring makes him look completely fucking retarded and it absolutely screams "I am a moron, do not take me seriously" which probably doesn't help him get ahead in life.
>>
>>150994159
yeah. Wouldn't have happened if Sugar put her foot down, but was too weak to do so.
>>
>>150990860
cause he's literally me
>>
>>150991941
no, he did much worse than that. he ended the series on the cliffhanger, and then he dropped it altogether. It wasn't only WGJK that had potential to be great. He also had Spookyville and that guy whatever his name series

>He didn't break out like Zach because he isn't funny. Like, at all. He has no fucking clue how comedy works.
He's funnier than Zach
>>
>>150994386
his nail has a much bigger funny bone than zach ever had in his whole body. The problem is, as other anons said, is that he's lazy, he lacks the will to overcome his problems, and he's a loner

Jerry

>>150991531
I thought it looked delicious...
>>
>>150990860
Because he’s a jealous cunt that doesn’t want to put in the work to make original ideas instead of shitty parody cartoons. He’ll make pathetic video game livestreams that barely get any attention until the day he dies.
>>
>>150994621
>>150994643

Yeah? How's that copium taste? Is it good?
>>
>>150994993
Okay Zach
>>
>>150993502
And Flashgitz.
>>
>>150990860
Zach has connections to people like Roiland. Vivzie is a visionary who built her world through years of hard work.
>>
>>150993502
Meatcanyon took it to the extreme by capitalizing on horror aspects and FlashGitz was actually funny
>>
>>150994613
I wouldn’t call it a cliffhanger, maybe just a satire of comedy shows that get serialized later on. It was strange that he let Applejack bust Micky out of VGV in that one piece he did and made that “canon”
>>
>>150991531
Did he really talk about it THAT often? I wish I could see these examples.
>>
>>150990860
He got stuck on Little Nightmares 2 several times. He needed someone to hold his hand to stop him from posting unhireable shit and connect him to the right people

>visionsry
A visionary who turned a decent show idea about hell into a fucking yaoi.
>>
>>150996306
It's still her vision, like it or leave it.
>>
>>150996346
I could put a whole bag of jelly beans up my ass, that doesn’t make me a visionary.
>>
>>150996826
Well now hold on Anon, why have you put those jelly beans up your ass? Your answer could mean you very well ARE a visionary. Diogenes would have put the jelly beans up his ass after all.
