Set Activity/Presence Command for Discord.js-Commando

So I have this command that sets the bot's "Playing" status:

const commando = require('discord.js-commando');
const { RichEmbed } = require('discord.js');
class sets extends commando.Command {
  constructor(client) {
      super(client, {
          name: 'setgame',
          group: 'owner',
          memberName: 'setgame',
          description: 'Sets the Bots\' activity',
          examples: ['Playing __on many servers!__'],
          args: [
            {
            key: "game",
            prompt: "What do you want to set my game as?",
            type: "string"
           }
          ]
      });
  }
  async run(message, { game } ) {
    if (message.author.id !== "442918106378010635"){
      message.channel.send("That's for TheRSC only!");
    }
    
    else {

      this.client.bot.setActivity(game)
      const embed = new RichEmbed()
        .setColor(0x00AE86)
        .setDescription("Game set!");
      message.channel.send({embed});;
    }
  }  
}

module.exports = sets;;

I ran into a few bugs before and managed to fix them, but this one stumps me. No matter how I code it, I keep getting: TypeError: Cannot read property 'setActivity' of undefined I've tried a few things, having text be defined in run, putting args.game into .setActivity() and it keeps spitting out that error. I tried the splitting the args method but that didn't work either. Any ideas? (As a side note, I'd also like to turn this into a .setPresence command if possible.)

Note: I am a beginner at coding, so I may be doing something that the average coder wouldn't.

Try changing 

client.bot.setActivity(game)

to 

client.user.setActivity(game)

You can take a look at this example provided by the official documentation on setActivity() if you need more help, or if my solution doesn't work.

client.user.setActivity('YouTube', { type: 'WATCHING' })
  .then(presence => console.log(`Activity set to ${presence.game ? presence.game.name : 'none'}`))
  .catch(console.error);

EDIT: I still think it has something to do with the .bot part because the only reference on the documentation of .bot was a boolean of whether or not a user was a bot.
