he marketplace, simply called Discord Store, is launching with 22 titles, including Team Cherry’s Hollow Knight and other indie gems like Dead Cells and Into The Breach. Five of those 21 titles are labeled “First on Discord” titles, meaning Discord is the primary distribution for those titles at launch.

This is a good thing, Steam and Discord should be in competition since competition is always good.

The list of games including with the $9.99 Discord Nitro includes 

Inside, Torchlight 2, RollerCoaster Tycoon 2, Super Meat Boy, FTL, Metro: Last Light Redux, Limbo, Guacamelle!, Darksiders 2, Bridge Constructor, Tooth And Tail, SOMA, Ashes Of the Singularity, and many more.

 

Just remember: Random people on the internet ALWAYS know more than professionals, when someone's lying, AND can predict the future.

I just hope they aren't too "in your face" about pushing it in-app. I don't game much, but use discord for a multitude of communities. It'd be annoying to have the new service shoved down my throat.

Upon update it's just a little banner at the top notifying you that they've updated their Terms of Service with the games addition, but you can just click it away and it's gone for good. By litle, I mean literally tiny.

Ah, good. Full screen announcements drive me insane. Small banners are fine.
