Dr. Disrespect on Fortnite: "This Game is a F**king Overrated Mess"
By Nicholas Barth ·
Popular Twitch streamer Guy "Dr. Disrespect" Beahm recently let his frustrations of Fortnite Battle Royale and his thoughts on the massive interest in Fortnite known on his stream.
Dr. Disrespect has risen to be one of the top streamers on the popular Amazon owned streaming platform Twitch. Mainly playing battle royale games with a focus on Player Unknowns Battlegrounds (PUBG), Dr. Disrespect routinely pulls in tens of thousands of viewers daily who enjoy watching the highly aggressive gameplay and ultra macho persona that Guy Beahm displays in his Dr. Disrespect character.
While the majority of time viewers can find Dr. Disrespect battling for chicken dinners on PUBG, the streamer has been finding himself jumping into the most popular title in the world at the moment in Epic Games' Fortnite Battle Royale lately. Taking part in the past two KEEMSTAR Friday Fortnite Tournaments, Dr. Disrespect has been working to add Fortnite to his stream's rotation of content. However, during a recent stream of his, Dr. Disrespect voiced his frustrations over Fortnite and spoke his thoughts on the large amount of interest surrounding the game currently.
"This game is a f**king overrated mess. Get me off of it. I'm bored to death playing that game. I'm playing this tournament and that is it. How is that game popular? I don't get it. I mean I get it, 7 year olds, 8 year olds and ‘whoop de do, doop de do’, but man, I am not into it. I try to be, alright? I think there’s a lot of phoneyness involved around that game. A lot of phoneyness around that game, I’ll tell you that," said Dr. Disrespect.
With many content creators from both YouTube and Twitch having made the decision to have Fortnite as the main focus of their content, Dr. Disrespect stands out as one of the few popular personalities on the two platforms to openly state their dislike of the game that has taken over the video game industry and the world.
With Fortnite dominating the viewership numbers on Twitch at the moment, many might have thought that Dr. Disrespect would have made the switch to the top battle royale game at the moment in the same way that he did with PUBG from H1Z1. However, it looks as though members of the slick daddy club will still be able to watch Dr. Disrespect provide his signature brand of entertainment while chasing chicken dinners in PUBG, as a full time switch to Fortnite does not look to be in the cards for the popular Twitch streamer.
