const { Client, GatewayIntentBits, Message } = require('discord.js');
const { token } = require('./config.json');

const client = new Client({ intents: [GatewayIntentBits.Guilds, GatewayIntentBits.DirectMessages, GatewayIntentBits.MessageContent] });

client.on("ready", function(){
    console.log(`the client becomes ready to start`);
    console.log(`I am ready! Logged in as ${client.user.tag}!`);
});

client.on("messageCreate", function(message){
    console.log(`a message was created`);
    console.log({message});
});


client.login(token);

I am able to get any other event but anything that has to do with messages just won't work.

The problem is I was originally using discord's example code.

And I simplified it as much as possible too.

// Require the necessary discord.js classes
const { Client, Events, GatewayIntentBits } = require('discord.js');
const { token } = require('./config.json');

// Create a new client instance
const client = new Client({ intents: [GatewayIntentBits.Guilds] });

// When the client is ready, run this code (only once).
// The distinction between `client: Client` and `readyClient: Client` is important for TypeScript developers.
// It makes some properties non-nullable.
client.once(Events.ClientReady, readyClient =&gt; {
    console.log(`Ready! Logged in as ${readyClient.user.tag}`);
});

// Log in to Discord with your client's token
client.login(token);
