Former Contraction Streamer Dr Disrespect has spoken out about his future with Midnight Society, expressing confidence that he will return to the studio. The split comes after the company distanced itself from him in June, following the public disclosure of the reasons behind his ban from Twitch.

Former Twitch employee Cody Conners claimed that Dr Disrespect’s ban from the platform was related to inappropriate conversations with a minor via Twitch’s “Whisper” direct messaging feature. These claims sparked widespread criticism from both viewers and fellow streamers. The streamer faced significant backlash as a result, with companies including Midnight Society, the San Francisco 49ers, and Turtle Beach cutting ties with him. Following the controversy, he announced a hiatus from streaming, but returned in September. During his return stream, he addressed the situation, claiming that the individual involved was over the legal age of consent at the time.


In a recent stream, controversial YouTube streamer Dr Disrespect was asked why he hasn't removed Midnight Society from his Twitter bio. He stated, “That's Two-Time's studio. That's Two-Time's game,” underscoring his deep connection to the studio. Dr Disrespect explained that the studio represents his vision for a game he conceptualized years ago with a few collaborators. The streamer also conveyed optimism about his future with Midnight Society, suggesting that he expects to re-engage with the company soon: “Just give them a little more time. We'll be right back, champs.”



Midnight Society recently hit by layoffs

While it is not yet clear when or if Dr Disrespect will return to his role at the studio, it is important to note that Midnight Society has recently undergone significant layoffs. This announcement comes alongside the news that the release of Falla vertical first-person shooter with extraction, has been delayed to 2025. The game was initially announced by Midnight Society in early 2022, generating considerable excitement among many fans. These developments show how the Twitch ban controversy surrounding Dr Disrespect has impacted Midnight Society.


Furthermore, despite Dr Disrespect’s return to streaming on YouTube, he continues to face challenges. Following the allegations, Dr Disrespect was removed from YouTube’s Partner Program, leaving his channel unmonetized at the time of writing. His return has also drawn criticism from other streamers. For example, Nickmercs expressed that Dr Disrespect’s actions involving inappropriate messages to a minor are “inexcusable.” However, it will be fascinating to see whether Dr Disrespect can ultimately prove his innocence and restore the respect he once commanded, as well as whether he can mend fences with the companies that have distanced themselves from him.
