Magness Posted March 23, 2021 Report Share Posted March 23, 2021 Discord is a great one for them to grab so I can see the reasons for this but, I have loved that they have been independent and separate from a specific platform. 😕 Can’t last forever I guess (even though this is not a done deal yet).

JoeyN Posted March 23, 2021 Report Share Posted March 23, 2021 As someone who runs a Discord community, it is at the point where needs either to be bought or go public to get a cash influx to build out its back end and team. Discord has a lot of things that need to be fixed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angry the Clown Posted March 23, 2021 Report Share Posted March 23, 2021 I regularly need reminding just how big Discord is and seeing a $10bn figure slapped on it is certainly a jolt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Romier S Posted May 3, 2021 Author Report Share Posted May 3, 2021 From possible Microsoft buy it (which didn’t happen as Discord pulled out of negotiations) to PlayStation partner..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kelley Posted May 4, 2021 Report Share Posted May 4, 2021 My guess is the Discord investors thought going it alone will equal out to a bigger payday than MS’s $10b. Sony partnership helps that reality, especially if they are going to do a first class integration with the PS5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
