Apart from the (more than obvious) technical feats, they've raised a lot of money and can afford to offer all of their services, some of them a bit expensive, for free. If they can't find a way to monetise, though, they'll be in trouble.
Had TeamSpeak or Mumble been able to offer hosted services for free, maybe Discord wouldn't have existed.
- Semaphor 8y agoThey have pushed monetization recently. Discord Nitro went from custom id, animated avatar and all emotes of all your servers everywhere to a game subscription service (obviously while raising the price)
- fvjft 8y agoI looked at the games when they launched and they all were indie rubbish, so what can I tell you.
- Semaphor 8y agoBesides a bunch of lootbox stuff for the kiddie shooters, there is Civ IV, XCOM:EU, Bioshock 1&2, Metro 2033 Redux, Project Highrise, Metro Last Light Redux, OOTP18, Tyranny, and so on. Most of those are not for me, but Indie rubbish seems a bit off.
- starshadowx2 8y agoThere is still the Nitro classic with just the extra account features, the game subscription is an extra piece if you want it.
