DrDisrespect has been known for his very harsh reality checks on gamers. He can sometimes be really bold on his end for saying something immensely true. Although many find his persona a bit rude, it is known as his way of saying things. It is also why some fans think that he can be disrespectful towards a certain game or so.

That’s what recently happened when he straight up said that Call of Duty is made for kids and is not mature enough. His comment on the game is not new, but the insight that he gave about the game is noticeable.

Although he won the quad match, he went on to play another few rounds with Zlaner. During some of his matches, he got shot by a player while he was still landing using his parachute. He was shocked when the players got a shot at him with ridiculously precise aiming. Outraged at this he complained, “You don’t even have to try. Literally no skill gap. It’s built for 11 to 13-year-old gamers. That’s what call of duty’s turned into.”

He then added, “When we build our game, it’s not going to be built for like…it’s not going to be specific to 11 to 13-year-olds. I mean we’ll widen the demographic. But let’s just say I’m just sending a load out and if I die, we just run it back. It’ll eventually be built for the mature gamers.”

For those who don’t know, DrDisrespect is building a game called Project Moon. Notably, the game is rumored to be a vertical battle royale.

DrDisrespect did not stop there. He even complained that it’s not just Warzone, but the whole gaming industry is suffering from drought. He said, “I understand the industry’s in a drought. I get it and it’s a heavy drought.” The comment was not targeted towards Warzone alone but was indicated for all the shooter games.

Doc then turned towards the steam stats and was shocked to see that Valorant, CS: GO and Battlefield are the highest reviewed game on the platform. Later he was again eliminated at the final circle, which made him rage-quit the game.
