Dolphin shows up In Discord as "Dolphin by Activision"
0%
Description
What's the problem? Describe what went wrong.
Discord usually shows the game one is playing next to the name. It also shows the game's publisher/studio.
Dolphin also shows up in discord, since it's integrated. but it shows the wrong publischer. Namely Activison.
Probably a fail-save? Ac(tivision) seems like it could be the first in the alphabet. You might have to get into contact with Discord again to replace it with something like "Dolphin Team".
What steps will reproduce the problem?
Enable Discord presence in Dolphin and open Discord and click on your name in the bottom left side of the screen to see the game-status.
Is the issue present in the latest development version? For future reference, please also write down the version number of the latest development version.
Yes. 5.0-10910
Is the issue present in the latest stable version?
No, because it lacks the Discord presence
Is there anything else that can help developers narrow down the issue? (e.g. logs, screenshots,
configuration files, savefiles, savestates)

- Status changed from New to Invalid
This happens regardless of Dolphin's Discord integration as far as I can tell. (Or did you specifically test that it doesn't happen with 5.0?) The reason it's happening is because Discord has some sort of database of games, which includes an Atari 2600 game by Activision called Dolphin.
Since this is a problem on Discord's side rather than ours, I'm closing this issue. I don't think Discord are more likely to accept a report on their side from a Dolphin developer rather than from some other person who uses Dolphin.

Users aren't supposed to know we're on Activisions payroll.
