Title: There's a disconnect, and I think its not good for the health of the server.
Description:
When I first started playing this server, the download was obviously on the website. Now it has been switched to a link you generate in the Discord chat. Looking at the official website it is not obvious that this is the method for getting the download link. I don't think its anyones first instincts to join the discord (before installing the game and fudging around for a bit no less) - so it just comes across as "what is wrong with the people running this server?" situation.
I'm not sure if it was a 'security' reason to make this change or not, but its likely unnecessarily confusing for many that want to try this server.
Please either put on the homepage of the website a callout telling people to join the discord and type /download in the discord to get the link to download link. Or, if possible, put the download link back on the website.
Why is this a good idea?
Making the server more accessible to play will increase playerbase - at least, I could see people being repelled by the inability to easily download the game.
What risks or downsides does it have?
Increasing download traffic maybe? Not sure.
Additional Info:
If possible, compare with similar features in other games. Include images, mock-ups, or examples.
I've never heard of a game (or RO pserver) requiring people to join the discord in order to generate a download link for themselves. I would think if it was such an issue that more people would be doing it?
