I have been coding my Discord bot using Discord.JS for about 2 months now and I've just recently noticed that my bot isn't saying that it's playing what I'm telling it. When I first coded the bot up until recently it worked just fine. Now the 3 discord bots I have aren't showing their games.
This is the code I'm using:
const Discord = require("discord.js");
const bot = new Discord.Client();
bot.on("ready", () => {
console.log("Ready");
bot.user.setGame("Type !help");
}
.setGame() is deprecated now but you could use .setPresence() or you could use the .setActivity() which is the same thing and format as the .setGame().
Ex.
const Discord = require('discord.js');
const bot = new Discord.Client();
client.user.setActivity('YouTube', { type: 'WATCHING' });
Here is a link to the documentation in case you wanted to change 'Watching' to something else like 'Playing'.
The setGame() Method has stopped working, here's what you can do:
- update to latest 11.1-dev or
- use
.setPresence({ game: { name: 'nameGoesHere', type: 0 } });as a workaround instead

setGame() is now deprecated, and discord.js asks you to use setActivity().
const Discord = require("discord.js");
const bot = new Discord.Client();
bot.on("ready", () => {
console.log("Ready");
bot.user.setActivity("Type !help");
})
Hope this helped.
Here's a short example of using the .setPresence that LW001 linked to:
var Discord = require('discord.js');
var bot = new Discord.Client();
bot.on('ready', () => {
bot.user.setStatus('available') // Can be 'available', 'idle', 'dnd', or 'invisible'
bot.user.setPresence({
game: {
name: 'Type !help',
type: 0
}
});
});
