We just created GRIVIO to tell people about our evolved mission.
However we feel like you deserve the origin story as well!
(Watch our community video if you prefer a cool video over article)

Origin Story:
gamername "BAITO", an ex esports player/coach) founded our community in late 2022 and we hosted weekly multiplayer events and game tests throughout 2023-2024.

In 2023 our main mission to prioritize the player experience first by helping multiplayer games get early feedback. We tested plenty of games together with indie studios. This created some great memories.

By 2026 we saw the world had bigger issues:

• 1/3 of young adults on the planet are lonely either all the time or often.
• worrying research on lack meaning globally.
  We took action and adapted our mission to solve this.

If reducing loneliness and adding meaning into people's lives is close to your heart, you love co-op games or seek friends to play with: our community is fit for you!

PS. One of our key pillars in the community throughout the years has been Game Nights. We even had a discord bot called "gamenights.gg" in the earlier days just to help our own guys organize sessions easier. Nowdays we got stable sessions 2-3 times a week on Tue/Thur/Sun.
