What happens when your game collaborates with a streamer who later falls from grace? Nothing good
Who would have thought that someone called "Dr. Disrespect" would be a bad guy, huh?

If you pay attention to the news about streamers and Internet influencers, you will know what happened with Dr. Disrespect, who admitted that in 2020 he was banned from Twitch for having “inappropriate” conversations with a minor (although he insists that there were no photos or anything illegal involved). After that, he lost, one by one, all the brands that supported him, but there was still one left: the game Rogue Company.
In the company of streamers
If the title of this online shooter doesn’t sound familiar to you, it’s normal: although in 2020 it had 15 million simultaneous players in its beta version, the truth is that it hasn’t been updated for years. At least, until now: its producer, Hi-Rez Studios, has decided to permanently remove the skin they launched four years ago of Dr. Disrespect that cost $40… and refund the money in the form of “Rogue Bucks,” the in-game currency, something that hasn’t sat well with fans, who feel cheated.
Well, to be honest, the skin only costed $20, but you could buy another $20 worth of streamer accessories. In other words, they have taken people’s money without giving them practically anything in return, especially considering that Rogue Company is, at this point, one of many zombie games that survive based on a small community.
It’s not the only game that has erased him from its code: NBA 2K24 removed his appearance and the $200 sponsored headphones have been wiped from the internet as if they had never existed. Despite the streamer insisting that after a vacation with his family, he will come back with the same strength as before, it seems to be just a bluff, and that his career is definitely over, especially considering that even YouTube has removed his monetization. Who would have thought there would be consequences for his terrible actions!
