We may as well never know why was Dr Disrespect banned from Twitch but fans at least used the controversial saga to create some amazing content, like an entire cinematic using Unreal Engine to depict the situation, created by Justice Ronald.

Using tools like Blender to model the assets and Unreal Engine to create the project, Justice Ronald stated that he spent two years working on the six-minute short film as a means to showcase his 3D skills in modelling, animation, and environment design, using Dr Disrespect and Twitch's fallout as inspiration.

The video shows Dr Disrespect and RoboDoc in a scene inspired by The Matrix, with RoboDoc offering Dr Disrespect a way out of Twitch by taking the YouTube pill.

The Doc naturally takes it, with the rest of the video stylised in the form of a cyberpunk car chase sequence as Dr Disrespect tries to escape the Twitch police. At the time of writing, the video has over 50k views on YouTube.

The video quickly went viral on social media, with industry inside Jake Lucky sharing it on Twitter, where the Two-Time actually responded with gratitude, thanking the creator of the video.

Despite being one of the most successful streamers on Twitch who seemingly stayed on the right side of things with the platform, the decision to permanently ban him without public motive will forever remain one of streaming's biggest mysteries.

In 2021, Dr Disrespect that he would sue Twitch over his ban, revealing that he knew the reason behind his suspension but couldn't address it publicly.

A year later, in 2022, the Doc revealed the legal dispute between him and Twitch, with neither part admitting to any wrongdoing of any kind, essentially putting an end to the saga.

Now, the Doc seems content enough with his audience on YouTube, and any potential Twitch return seems highly unlikely in the near future.
