@Mention users by game

Exxidion

I would love to have the ability to @mention everyone in a server who has played a specific game before.

A server I am on has many users that play a variety of games, and the owner/admin of the server has disabled mentioning @everyone on the server. It would be really neat if I could type something like this into the chat:

Hey, does anyone wanna play @Overwatch ?

Discord keeps track of games it has seen its users play before and lists them in the Game Activity section of the App Settings, so it already knows which games users have played. All that would be needed would be to check this list to determine whether or not a given user should be mentioned by the text chat message.

As for the mention itself, rather than having to keep a list of all games in a database somewhere, Discord could just allow users to @mention games which are listed in their Game Activity section.

    This would be very cool and useful! This would let members mention anyone who is definitely not busy as they are playing a game. It would also let members ping anyone who even has the game to prevent unnecessary pings.
