    ... this is a really misleading title ... it is NOT NOT NOT "building a community... from scratch" ... it's a bunch of hand waving about building a community ... and then a lot of information about how he built a DISCORD community AFTER he had already built email lists and had a following and built a community lol ... still useful and interesting!!! ... just definitely not what the title implies

    Talk is not bad, but title is pretty misleading. This is not about how to create a community from scratch, it's just telling what you do to keep people engaged in your Discord server. Interesting ideas you have there, but they don't apply to/would work with most games or developers.

    How do you actually get these 1000s of peoppe in the first place?

    Again with Mike Rose crushing it with another one of my favorite GDC talks of all-time. Awesome job, Mike. I hugely respect the work you do.

    Great talk but totally not true about Discord automatically verifying your sever because you are developing a game. If you don't have a decent following already, you will not get verified; I know from experience.

    This is basically a crazy blend of marketing and roleplaying/text based meta game.... very wild but super interesting!

    His info is good...his "Uhhhhhm"'s are distracting. Everyone has some sort of speech pattern they keep repeating. I play with my ears when I think, Mike Rose says "uhhhhhh" as a period to every....uhhhhmmm...single..uhhhh....sentence. If I am to be honest, I say "so" for my sentence ender. Example: I just reprogrammed my spawn system so. So yeah, then I debugged it...so." Recognizing our ticks, especially when it is so distracting helps us in the long run :)

    Has anyone followed this advice? I'd want to hear people's experiences on building a discord server and what kind of bots you use?

    This guy said "other videos say, heres what to do with your community, well I'll tell you how to actually get a community", and then proceeds to tell us when we open our discord, THOUSANDS of people will come rushing in... 😐 sounds like the guy already had a community, quite possibly??

    How does this video have less than 20.000 views!?!? Great advice! Great talk!

  • @Dailyfiver

    This is all fantastic information! It just unfortunately left me feeling a bit overwhelmed though. I feel like this is just as much work as game development if not more, and I only have around an hour or two of free time per day. That’s valuable time that I need to spend on my game. I feel like this is only possible as a full time dev. The guy starts the community by saying that thousands of people joined, but we don’t know how those people were first gathered.

    Mind blowing idea. I got hyped hearing him talk about the hype from his discord. This deserves more views and more people deserve this information!

    Hi, new to MHA but trying to understand rules interactions (I'm a judge in a few other TCGs). How is Sugar Rush able to interact with Spooky? The result of swapping speed and damage can either increase or decrease damage, but the effect doesn't explicitly decrease damage, so I wouldn't think Sugar Rush would apply. Could you elaborate? Thank you! Love your content, you've made an Eraserhead 1 fan out of me!
