The advent of yet another digital distribution platform for games could be viewed as either a blessing or a curse. While competition is rarely a bad thing, having too much of it can create excess fragmentation (take cryptocurrency, for example).

That’s far friendlier than Steam’s distribution agreement (even after a recent revision) but not quite as liberal as what Discord plans to offer developers.
