I have been using Discord since the very beginning, as a replacement for TeamSpeak, Ventrilo and the occasional Mumble ( friends and onlinr friends). Also it replaced entirely Skype. And IRC for pugs and finding opponents to "fight".
Discord is great and free. I would have never expected them to try and take a bite off Steam.
Steam has a lot of issues but it's also the king of the hill and will be extremely hard to take a seizable chunk of their cake away.
With the Netflix for videogames approach Discord enters another unsustainable model, with the first one being unlimited chat and voice-chat for everyone.
I wish them the best, it would suck if Discord disappeared, but they're throwing a lot stones into the gaming well. And we all know how the gaming world is...
