I think removing Nitro isn't making it better, more of insult to injury. And really, if the non-Nitro games are isolated like that, then there's less sense to have it published on your server if you can distribute it on your own website/storefront instead (which would be free of needless splits and you would have full control of).
There was a lot of potential to the store, but no, the staff thinks games should be sold in their own safe space.Īs everyone said, it's more or less difficult to find new games through Discord-since they're all isolated into their own servers, that is likely to be not even be discoverable. The Discord store really to me felt like it did everything better than what the EGS tried to do (especially the more favorable 90/10 revenue split), but ultimately failed to do so because of this pretty stupid decision to have games only distributed by the server(s). I'm really disheartened about the decisions made with the games, as that was the initial reason for me to get Nitro. Very dumb way of doing it and I would hope for their sake they revert it back since the big two right now are Steam and Epic, trying to compete while making it actively harder to buy anything on your store when convenience is everything is a very poor choice. Discord just kind of failed on it by allowing the servers but doesn't group them by tags, show new games, have a storefront that links them now and has no way of knowing if the server even has a store link. It's setup like any other online storefront when just browsing up front but goes to the more specific pages when you click on it. The custom server thing seems similar to how you can have a custom URL that doesn't mention bandcamp in the name despite still running through the site (same for background, tags, artwork, videos, physical merch, etc.) I think they missed a pretty big thing from that though and it's that bandcamp actually has a store to browse that links all of those URLs together in a way that's easy for both the artist and the buyer. I wonder if they were attempting to do something similar to what bandcamp has for music artists.
