You thought it was Microsoft, but it was Sony all along (Discord partnership)
- Thread starter The Mad Titan
- Start date
I feel so out the loop. Is Discord basically what mIRC was back in the day?
It would be like that and TeamSpeak with a little bit of twitch capabilities mixed in
Striving For Greatness
Get Certs or Die Tryin
Need that iTunes & Apple Music integration

So I wonder if this had something to do with the Microsoft deal falling through

I dont care anymore 2026
100 percent, of anything Microsoft probably tried to buy when the deal was pretty much in place with Sony
I mean why sale when you can get partnership money, plus the millions of not billions potentially from sub money and you own your product.

I can also see it being a situation where Sony paid an amount that would allow them to stay independent
That Microsoft 10 billion came with a complete ownership situation and I guess they didn’t want that even if it meant being 10 billion dollars richer
I wonder how deep the integration goes with this, on Xbox it’s very minimal where it just shows what a person is playing

Thanks to the lawyers uh, I marbled the foyer
That's why they killed Communities?
, nah they just wanted to own their product that has no good competition.
Should have sold. 
Wonder how much Sony is paying for this though, as Discord did need quite a bit of reoccurring cash.

The PS5 party system is kinda discord inspired so this makes sense

Sell for what? Like you said we don't know the details of this deal, if Sony got in the ball park for only a partnership I ain't giving up ownership of shyt lol
Go public and let the stock market gamblers and Sony help you with the bills, figure out what's next right after. I thought they should've sold too when the MS news first came but keeping ownership and still cashing out is like a dream scenario unless you just want to leave lol
