Update "Shogi" category description Shogi (将棋, shōgi), also known as Japanese chess, is a two-player board game in the same family as International chess and Chinese Xiangqi, and is native to Japan. Shogi means general's (shō) boardgame (gi). In early years, however, shogi was written 象棋 (the same as Xiangqi, "elephant chess").
The earliest predecessors of the game, chaturanga, originated in India in the 6th century AD, and spread from China to Japan, where it spawned a number of variants. Shogi in its present form was played as early as the 16th century, while a direct ancestor without the "drop rule" was recorded from…

Unattended Streams Unattended streams are expanding. This includes anything where the streamer is never there or away for an extended time and there is little to no interaction with them. Some examples are: reruns, sleeping, AI powered, CCTV & scenery cams, traditional TV & radio stations, and anything else pre-recorded outside of Twitch. These streams need to have their own place so that viewers know what to expect. For those interested, to be able to find them easily, and those not interested, to know they can move on. There are a couple dedicated categories for this, Always On and Twitch Plays, but…

Videos tagged under specific game category I've recently noticed that many videos tagged with the name of our game have been removed and don't appear when you open the category of the game. There are videos around but they don't appear if you are following that specific game category, which makes it look like there are none. It would be really helpful to have this fixed, as it was working before and it recently changed.

New Category: Pool Party I'm aware others have made similar suggestions for an 18+ category or whatev to displace sxy, but not sexually suggestive (unless you view the female body as sxual by nature, which is an entire can of worms in and of itself), hot tub streamers. However, I don't think that actually applies to women who are just sxy, sitting on a banana, as an 18+ category since they do not realistically meet the criteria of prn, or even softcore prn. That is, of course, ignoring the delusional people who exaggerate, equating the front page of Just Chatting to Chaturbate. Anyone who…
7 votesHey All!
Just wanted to reach out and let you all know that we do now have a new category called Pools, Hot Tubs, and Beaches. As with all content on Twitch, creators must abide by our Nudity & Attire policy. Please consult that policy for details on what is and isn’t permissible.
We know you might have more questions or concerns on this but I am going to close out this thread and link our blog post which has a lot more information: https://blog.twitch.tv/en/2021/05/21/lets-talk-about-hot-tub-streams/
Feel free to share your thoughts with us on UserVoice if you have any further questions or feedback for us on this!

Offer services to streamers Create a directory that would allow the offering of services to streamers (and vice versa - let streamers show the services they are looking for).
Service examples may include: community moderation, graphic/merchandise design, website creation, digital marketing, use of languages, video and animation, audio, manager services and similar.The idea is beneficial because it would allow creators to look for services for a better price, in exchange for publicity or a moderator role. Moreover, it would allow streamers to find qualified people that are closer to their own community or Twitch culture.
One additional feature of such a directory could…

pajama sam no need to hide when it's dark outside i dont like that there is no image for the category of pajama sam no need to hide when it's dark outside, It is a game that is streamed quite often and then there is no image and I think that is a pity. I hope you can add an image to this category.
Kind regards

Re add "Persona 4: Golden" as a game; remove "Persona 4: Golden Solid Gold Premium Edition" as a game "Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 4" is not the same as "Persona 4: Golden", even if the games are largely similar. Persona 4: Golden adds new content, characters, etc., and one of the characters is re-dubbed. In addition, it makes zero sense to have the limited edition of a game be its own separate category, when the regular edition isn't.

Persona 4 Golden has now been restored at https://www.twitch.tv/directory/game/Persona%204%20Golden

Add Age of Empires II to Esports Directory Add Age of Empires II to Esports Directory
Age of Empires 2 has a long-running history of an active and competitive multiplayer scene with a wide bevy of players that have built large, avid followings of viewers who love to see the game played competitively. The scene also has a strong tradition of organizing competitive tournaments & show-matches amongst players.
Currently, AOE2, has 20.6% more viewers than Starcraft II and as far as I can tell, Starcraft II is the only other RTS listed in the Esports directory.
AOE2 is a great compliment to join Starcraft II as the second…

Per-Console/Platform Meta-Categories Every console and platform should have its own category, especially older ones.
If you look at Retro right now, you'll find over 20 years of games represented because "Retro" is a poorly-defined term- it means something different to everyone. For many people that makes it fairly useless for discovering new interesting streamers.
Conversely, people generally know what Atari 2600, SNES, PSP, Dreamcast, etc. are, so it would be nice if streamers didn't need to resort to the punt category and getting buried in the noise (which sucks to sift through as much as it sucks to be stuck in). This…

Why is "Hitless" a banned category? Self titled, why is "Hitless" banned from being used as a category? I'm certain this is a bug, because if it isn't, then it was just an incredibly poor decision.
Team Hitless is an entire group of no hit runners, and have a Twitch Team established. Damageless is allowed, NoHit is allowed, Deathless is allowed, even "Hitlesss" is allowed which further leads me to believe it's a mistake.
I think if somehow on the very off chance this isn't a bug, Twitch should really consider what they were thinking when making that decision.

Maitetsu (Visual Novel) on IGDB, but doesn't show up as Twitch category Not sure if this is a bug or not, but this PC game does not appear as a category for streamers in streaming apps such as Twitch Studio or Streamlabs OBS.
It DOES appear when editing categories for VODs, but when you save it doesn't stay. It appears as "Maitetsu"
https://www.igdb.com/games/maitetsu
There is another version with a similar name on IGDB, "Maitetsu: Pure Station" , but it never shows up as a Twitch category or in the stream apps. This version is for the Switch and PS4.

Pole Dancing, Twerking & Popular Dances / Performing Dance Arts With the new guidelines regarding sexual content streamed on Twitch, and the green light to twerk and pole dance, it is safe to say that it is time to add a separate category for this type of content. At the moment, channels are streaming twerking videos under the art category. Viewers expect to see people drawing or painting when they click the art category, not twerking/dancing. This type of content just doesn't go in the same category as Drawing/Painting. It would be nice for streamers providing twerking and pole dancing as part of their content to have a category of…

CAD - Computer Aided Design CAD - Computer Aided Design, should be a category on Twitch. This could be related to the use of software, sharing info about engineering, designing products or something similar. Please upvote to make this happen! There are videos on YouTube, but no streaming on Twitch as far as I know.

Sakura Taisen: Atsuki Chishio Ni Beginning around this month I started streaming a game called "Sakura Taisen: Atsuki Chishio Ni", its the PS2 version of the Original Dreamcast game "Sakura Taisen" known to be a Japan-exclusive. When I began to stream the game I had no problem finding the correct category being the name of the game itself as I mentioned (Sakura Taisen: Atsuki Chishio Ni). Recently I went back to stream the game again and I found that the category no longer existed. My hope is to recover the category so I can stream the game with its proper title. Though the game may…

Separate music categories Separate music categories further please.
Music is an ever growing topic on twitch but frankly people producing music, engineering music, and displaying/educating on the creation side are being drowned out by radio stations (which I believe should be its own standalone category) and by musicians doing covers/DJ’s.
I believe musicians/DJ or music performers should be standalone
And radio stations.
Let’s be honest. The radio stations are largely driven by bots and chat related activities such as mini games etc. I’ve stopped by several and there isn’t a lot of active content being created by the streamer. Not to discredit those…3 votes -
Restore the categories for the .hack//IMOQ PS2 games I've been playing through the original .hack quadrilogy on Twitch since May, but recently, the categories for the entire series were deleted from Twitch:
.hack//INFECTION (Part 1): https://www.twitch.tv/directory/game/.hack%2F%2FINFECTION%20-%20Part%201/videos/all
.hack//MUTATION (Part 2): https://www.twitch.tv/directory/game/.hack%2F%2FMUTATION%20-%20Part%202/videos/all
.hack//OUTBREAK (Part 3): https://www.twitch.tv/directory/game/.hack%2F%2FOUTBREAK%20-%20Part%203/videos/all
.hack//QUARANTINE (Part 4): https://www.twitch.tv/directory/game/.hack%2F%2FQUARANTINE%20-%20Part%204/videos/allI don't see any categories that are supposed to replace them, and when I asked support what happened, they told me to post my "feedback" here.
Can you please restore these categories, or create an overarching category for the entire quadrilogy?
Thank you.

Minecraft categories Recently twitch has removed the "Minecraft" Category and made it "Minecraft: Java Edition" there are a lot of players out there who play Bedrock and while they have added "Multiplayer for Minecraft PE" it doesn't always fall into that category
please add either "Minecraft: Bedrock Edition" or have a global "Minecraft" category.

We actually addressed this last year by bringing back the main Minecraft category, but forgot to close this out.
