I know that this might be a bit off topic 😕  
But I wanted to ask what do you people think about Discord ?

Some authors are using it nowdays and I have seen them being more active on it than on the forum.  
And so I wanted to ask does it really benefit the writer to have an account for their IF on so many apps ?

I created an account there precisely to follow the work of the authors not only on this site but I ended up discovering several good [itch.io](http://itch.io) games

Whatever you want to interest me, I think it’s worth it.

Yes. There’s a lot of games that aren’t Choicescript and instead offered in Twine/RenPy/etc that are pretty much solely hosted on [Itch.io](http://Itch.io) or any IF archive/comp site so you won’t hear word of it here until it gets relatively popular, if at all. They tend to be advertised on Tumblr most of the time, so it’s a great way to find and keep up with non-Choicescript games.

However, I will say, in terms of choice based games with size, scope and features similar to what you see in COG or Hosted Games that are actually _ **completed** _? There’s significantly less of that.
