RELATED: Lost Ark Video Showcases the MMO’s Endgame
Dr Disrespect is a gamer who has built a reputation for playing highly competitive games, especially shooters. He racked up over 4 million followers on Twitch playing Battle Royale video games, such as H1Z1, PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds, Black Ops 4: Blackout, Call of Duty: Warzone, Apex Legends, and Fortnite. Dr Disrespect recently praised the new Battle Royale game Super People, so he favors fast-paced gameplay and high mechanical skill caps.
It is easy to see how many would argue against Dr Disrespect. Gamers have long found ways of demonstrating their skills in MMO games and would point to the intricacy of their build crafting and ability combos. A player’s commitment to the lore and the role-play can also be reflective of skill, and Lost Ark is offering Impressive Character Class Customization in this area. But for Dr Disrespect, it’s not enough. He argued, “MMOs are one of those games where I couldn’t tell the difference between who’s a better player” and said if he was watching a stream on Twitch, he’d prefer something like Call of Duty: Warzone veteran Michael “shroud” Grzesiek.
Lost Ark is available in Europe and North America on February 11 on PC.
