END OF ZELLIG Zaryan No.8821

IT'S ACTUALLY OVER FOR REAL THIS TIME
https://petjeaf.com/ongezellig/posts/ongezellige-update-130-dubbelslot

A new petje update released a couple of minutes ago. After "The combination of a burnout, a new life stage, a difficult pitch phase, a limited support and a successful side" and 4 years, Massa is cancelling the monthly ongezellig illustrations, and with it, any and all potential for more ongezellig content whatsoever.

<Thank you again to everyone who contributed. I hope you are still happy with the results that you have been able to make true. Remember, Ongezellig not as a failed pilot, but as a successful short film.

Might seem lost, but don't worry guys we can keep going. We've already survived for a good year without new zellig content and I'm sure we can keep kicking for another year.

Also did you guys really not see this coming?? It's 1 dude making a webtoon on his own, its already a huge enough project to animate all of zellig.
Massa also releases a new video every 6 months. I'd have been a miracle to have an episode 2.

Don't let the antizellig-trannies win, keep going, keep making gems. It's not over until we say so. In fact, it is just getting started.

But holy shit Zaryans, do you know what this means? Ongezellig is pretty much up for grabs and free reign now. I mean sure we chudded it up and did a bunch of shit with it long before this announcement, but the fact that Massa is pretty much abandoning it all together means we CAN do anything with it now. If Massa won't continue with this, then perhaps we can.

TSMT. Just think of it, /co/ will abandon zellig, the trannies will abandon zellig, etc.
As sad as it is, maybe this is our oppertunity to grab zellig for ourselves. CHUDS! ZARYANS HECKING WON!!! AND ZARYANS WILL HECKING CONTINUE WINNING

In practical terms, the only thing that has happened is that he will release less art. I already had the suspicion he wasn't going to release anything big, this statement confirms it

I find this to be a sort of a bitter sweet ending.
As Massa said, don't look at it as a failed pilot but a successful short film.
Now the threat of the show going on a downwards spiral is gone, unburdening us chuds. Zellig will remain perfectly preserved within it's 6 deels, timeless. It's a product of pure passion and dedication, not a moneymaker dragged out for seasons

to be fair, nothing really changed. We are still in the situation where we just goof around and wait for news about zellig. I think that it's best for Massa to just drop the show for now, until a studio picks it up (which may sound like a cope at this point, but there have been cases where a pilot gets picked up a few years later).
Our goals are still the same: to make OC and to develope the community. I think that most of us are here precisely for that, not really for the show. The zarty will be up until until october/november, so our goal is to try and grow as a community by then. If we succede, the zarty will also continue.

I agree, if anything this debacle should encourage us to make more art

I have bought the the domain and hosting server for a year, after which i will have to renew my licence. There is a lot of time until the licence ends.
I have no plans of shuting down the zarty. I just wanted to say that if for some reason the community dies (a bit unlikely for now), the site would have atleast had a good 1 year run.

I don't wish to demoralise anyone. I'm still going to make OC and keep up the site the best i can. Again, practically our situation has not changed. We are here mainly for the community, not for the show. Ongezellig still has the chance to be picked up in the future (or the idea to be picked up by somebody who knows a bit more about marketing). For now Massa wished to focus on other things (yet again).

he could have turned it into something huge if he wasn't an idiot, a lot of people can relate to it and the only similar cartoon that has ever been made was watamote
the youtube views alone would have been passive income for him for the rest of his life, besides the obvious fame and prestige he would have acquired at work, thus allowing him to negotiate high salaries with future employers

I'm inclined to agree. Aldoe zellig wasn't his most popular it was still what made him the most money.
But he didn't even set up a patreon, he insisted on relying on the dutch fanbase instead of the international one. He could've been rich if he just worked his ass of on zellig and started accepting donations from internationals.
In conclusion; Massa is a bit retarded

Massa was very stuck up indeed.
Also, he couldve made it a webcomic instead, with his monthly petje postings, would keep up the interest in ongezellig while furthering the development of the story and characters.
Massa really did play his cards BADLY.
Zaryan No.8868

i think the main reason he doesn't want to continue ongezellig that he won't say out loud is that he turned into a normalnigger and he can't relate to it anymore. that's what he really meant with that "i'm almost 30" bullshit.

Could very well be the case.

I'm honestly so mad at Massa right now, he couldve tried to appeal to the internationals a little bit by opening a fucking patreon and he'd double his income, I am very sure of that, despite what the nigga foenkie says.

Zaryan No.8871

Producerfag here, who somehow has ended up in the soysphere and its zellig-related tangent through my research for a book. I am helping found a new digital publishing label and I wonder what Massa would charge per strip if we wanted to pick up Ongezellig as a 4-koma style webcomic, even if it was weekly or only bi-weekly. It's reminded me, an oldGOD, of stuff like Azumanga Daioh.

I don't mean to mettle with things if he's decided to permanently put the project to bed (or take it out back with a shotgun), but it certainly feels like a missed opportunity with this cult following that has formed organically around the IP, to the point of taking over an entire altchan board and spawning its own splinter. It'd be an honor to keep it going and produce it as another medium, but I won't reach out if people here think it's a bad move.

Maybe too hopeful but I think zellig still has a chance. I think Massa would do best to realize that the majority of Ongezellig viewers are international, whether he likes it or not, and appealing to said internationals with something like a Patreon is probably the only way forward. I'm holding out hope that he'll see the success of other indie animation projects on Youtube like The Amazing Digital Circus and realize that he doesn't necessarily need studio backing to continue the show and make a profit from it.

What the hell, in the name of Jesus, you, jooisch shekel lovers, fuckin' talkin' about? Sam worked not for money, but for himself, it was a completely enthusiastic project. Do you think that everything must be monetized? Must be globalized? No, it's literally distinctive dutch series, and we honestly love it just the way it is. Is exposing it to degenerative international influences better than this, than originality, than so-called "keyedness" of 'zellig?

>Sam worked not for money, but for himself
Except for the fact that the sole defining factor whether Ongezellig would be continued or not was money. Of course, it was a project of enthusiasm, and he didn't seem to be in it for the money, but he needed a reliable stream of income to justify quitting his job to pursue animating full time (as anyone would). It's just not feasible to create something as large as Ongezellig driven on enthusiasm alone.
Zaryan No.8884
>>8882
You just don't understand what I mean. In general, I am not against any kind of monetization, but this is not a prerogative. It would really be more profitable for 'assa to do this (reply #8867), But, again, I spoke out against the degradation of the project in globhomo shitstone, not against increasing profits thank for it.
