The option to either add a Discord webhook URL for notifications or a Discord bot should be considered for the game to allow notifying people of new streams happening when the game starts.
Here is a list of pros and cons for webhooks and Bot.
Webhook:
+ Easy setup. Only need to make one in a channel, copy URL and done.
+ Perfect for simple Notifications of game starting.
- Cannot handle commands or interactions.
- No customization of permissions. ALWAYS uses @everyone permissions of channel, meaning pinging roles requires the Ping @everyone, @here and all Roles permission on @everyone role (Potential abuse unless it's used in a channel where nobody can write).
Bot:
+ Unlike permissions can have a role to fine-tune permissions it should have.
+ Support for Commands and interactions to f.e. retrieve statistics.
- Setup is more tedious, requiring to create bot account in dev portal, copy token, adding bot to server, etc.
- When game isn't running, commands and interactions - if any - wouldn't work anymore.
