DrDisrespect takes shots at Twitch in New Year Twitter pledges

DrDisrespect Reveals Ambitious Resolutions for 2022, Takes a Swipe at Twitch

Popular YouTube content creator DrDisrespect shared his goals for 2022, which included a subtle jab at streaming platform Twitch. In a tweet on Jan. 1, DrDisrespect outlined his resolutions for the year, ranging from ambitious to outlandish.

Unbanned and Massive Payout

One of DrDisrespect’s goals on the list caught attention—it read, “unbanned and massive payout,” with the text highlighted in purple. It’s likely a reference to his indefinite ban from Twitch, as the highlights match the platform’s signature colors. It’s been almost two years since DrDisrespect was banned from Twitch, and he hasn’t hidden his dissatisfaction with the company.

Doc-Con 2022: Another Jab at Twitch?

Another potential dig at Twitch could be the mention of “Doc-Con 2022.” This comes as Twitch plans to host its first TwitchCon since the start of the pandemic. The timing of the event might have prompted DrDisrespect’s comment.

Achievable Resolutions

While some of DrDisrespect’s goals are clearly meant as jokes, others could be genuine plans. One goal aims to raise $100 million for his game studio, Midnight Society, which comprises former developers from popular games like Call of Duty and Halo. This ambitious funding goal could lead to exciting partnerships and projects in the gaming industry.

Furthermore, DrDisrespect has expressed interest in releasing a music album, drawing on his background in synthwave music. He has also considered developing a custom, gamer-branded bourbon, although it’s unclear if this idea is currently in production or merely a dream.
