    A Push for the Escapist have a Discord?

    For that to be a genuine issue, how do Discords work when they are used by other communities? Every discord I have joined bar 1, have been me following a link from material I otherwise followed. I mean, we don't exist in an information vacuum. At least I don't. I mean, you're planning for...

    A Push for the Escapist have a Discord?

    For that to be true, there has to have been a push for a community discord at some point. I mean, you can't really interpret a lack of history as history supporting you. That becomes an endless loop of us basically arguing that it's my way because of something that didn't happen. Everyone is...

    A Push for the Escapist have a Discord?

    Why have sub-communities, but no main? I get that the old ones were set-up before, but then The Escapist went through it's own dark age here for a bit (That being the obvious "Why"). We've got a new start here though, so... Isn't it kind of time? The fact that there are those Sub-communities...

    A Push for the Escapist have a Discord?

    Look. I think I speak for all of us: What you follow on your discord is none of our business, but we support you entirely.

    A Push for the Escapist have a Discord?

    That's really not the Point of the thread? The point is to push for an Official one to be made. I appreciate the anecdotal appeal here, but all that says to me is that it didn't have the resources necessary to work. Moreover, when were these created? Discord has only gained steam in the last...

    A Push for the Escapist have a Discord?

    Well it's good to have your support then with this issue! Since this could promote all material equally to whichever member joins the discord, the discord can promote diversification of viewed content among the users. Also, a interconnected community can more easily game together, thus...

    A Push for the Escapist have a Discord?

    I am aware that it is a Wonderful way to communicate. Hence why I am pushing that we use it to better communicate! That way the Escapist can better communicate with it's products, if that's what your preferred term for readers. See what is best about this whole thing, is that you and I could...

    A Push for the Escapist have a Discord?

    So I don't really get why we're moving off to talk about the effect of Discord on website's advertising, that doesn't seem like it's having that much of an impact on the world. I'm pretty sure that it hasn't crashed the great market of Games Journalism or Youtuber communities at this point, as...

    A Push for the Escapist have a Discord?

    So, given that most communities I know that use one use it to link directly back to material... it works pretty well. Youtubers, gaming communities, etc. will do that. So new video goes up, you post it in an announcement section and boom... people have a link. The alternative is going back to...

    A Push for the Escapist have a Discord?

    So my original question was answered already (I'd asked this back on the 20th in Russ Pitt's article he'd written about taking over the site again, and actually DID get an answer but didn't see it until today), but I'd like to push that the Escapist SHOULD have a discord. Great software, easy...

    Report: The Last Guardian Will Finally Be Shown at E3 This Year

    Well, hopefully they follow through this time. Team Ico has done some truly amazing stuff. Some small part of me hopes, that they will deliver this, and it be the best thing ever... It's a tiny part of me, the part that hides in the cabin in the back of my mind, to avoid being eaten by the...
