Final Years and Death[]

Following major organizational changes in the wake of Manwin's acquitution of Digital Playground, D would be forced to become an independent producer with smaller budgets, outputting a fraction of the material produced during the height of Digital Playground's Pirates era. D's mental and physical health was in steady decline until his death. In 2020, in the midst of the Covid-19 pandemic, D was an outspoken critic of mask use and vaccination. This would prove to be a fatal stance, as he succumed to complications from Covid-19 in November 2021.

Former adult producer and collegue Brah Bones spoke at his memorial service, referring to his innovative camera work, "Robby always got the shot." Following the service some had noted the irony - not the shot that mattered, referring to the Covid-19 vaccine that would have likely saved his life.
