Dream sees the situation as an unfortunate accident and apparently considers the current backlash to be totally exaggerated:
I know I am a good person. And I don’t care if you see it differently. You can think that, you can continue to live your life negatively and I will stay positive.
Dream
Dream then explains that he will probably stream on Twitch more often in the future – but will not do any more speedruns.
How successful the stream was: It is extraordinary how successful Dream is on Twitch, even though he hardly streams there and is actually a YouTuber.
The “explanatory stream” lasted only 1.5 hours, but had an average of 185,000 viewers and peaked at 206,000.
This once again shows how incredibly popular Minecraft still is after many years and that a “world record” in the game, especially when it is so controversial, interests millions of people.
How to avoid your own downfall when you’ve dug yourself in?
What’s behind it: This is already an exciting situation. One wonders how one would get out of it in the YouTuber’s position.
Dream is incredibly popular, but his popularity depends on these speedruns in Minecraft. It is therefore important that his viewers can trust him to do everything fairly.
The problem is that Dream has defended himself against cheating for months with all his might. But many were not satisfied with that.
A lot of steam has built up in the kettle, which is now being released through the “confession”.
But Dream seems determined to ride it out and approach it with humor. On his Twitter channel, he humorously announced that he would now rule the community with an “iron fist”. Toxic people would be eliminated first.

The streamer and speedrunner Dream is backed into a corner in Minecraft . After admitting that he cheated during a speedrun, he has now started a Twitch stream. Over 200,000 people wanted to hear what he had to say.
This is the situation:
- The Minecraft speedrunner Dream has 22 million subscribers on YouTube. He is therefore hugely popular. His greatest achievement so far was an extremely fast run through Minecraft. However, allegations arose that he cheated during the record run. He had so much loot luck that it seemed statistically impossible. The Minecraft record was taken from him.
- Initially, Dream denied cheating: such luck may be unlikely, but possible. But eventually Dream confessed that he “accidentally” cheated: A plugin was active, of which he allegedly had no knowledge, that was active during the run. This had changed the loot rates.
- After all the drama, Dream was seen on Twitch for the first time again. Over 200,000 people wanted to hear what he had to say on Twitch now. It was a lot, after all, some demanded serious consequences. They felt deceived and believed that Dream had built his career with cheats.
People demand Dream’s head
This is what Dream said in the stream: The streamer was in a kind of “Last Stand” situation in the stream, as people demanded his head. Some felt that he could not continue after the affair.
From Dream’s perspective, people wanted to “cancel” him.
Dream explained once again: He did not “cheat”, but merely had an “unclean run”. For him, cheating clearly involves intent. But since he was not aware that the plugin was active, which increased the loot chances, he does not see himself as a “cheater”.
Dream said: People are extremely emotional. It is just a terrible situation. People have already formed their opinions and would blow this up into a huge thing.
He is clearly bothered that people are now trying to “cancel” him and end his career. Dream wants his YouTube channel to be completely left out:
Do not try to diminish my achievements or discredit my YouTube channel. [The speedrun] wasn’t even on my YouTube channel.
Dream
People would now say: He gained 22 million subscribers because he cheated – but that wasn’t the case. He never uploaded the speedrun to YouTube – it might have gained him just one more subscriber.
