  1. Summed up, for the new directory buttons that are being experimented with to supposedly help adding discoverability to the platform, could there be a fifth button that exclusively shows streamers who has been streaming consistently for atleast six months, but average less than 10/15 viewers?

  2. Hello, there are an increasing number of video artists using twitch, but no good category to bring them together. Some use 'Art' but tend to get lost in the sea of traditional artists (painters, drawers etc). Some use 'Music' since their video art is often accompanied by music, but again the focus of that category isn't really right for what they're doing.

    Most of the video artists I'm aware of are either generating artistic moving video patterns from scratch (like '70s-style psychadelic music videos, but moving far beyond that with modern technologies) or curating, reshaping and modifying pre-existing video (glitch,…

  3. "River City Ransom" was removed as a category when creating a new stream.

    The closest category that matches this game on Twitch is "Downtown Nekketsu Story", the Japanese version of River City Ransom. Very few people who play River City Ransom in the US, Australian, and European markets would refer to the game as Downtown Nekketsu Story. River City Ransom was heavily localized for its NA release, including the removal of one of the three difficulty settings, core narrative change from rival high schools to street gangs, completely rebalanced item costs and enemy rewards, and a graphical redraw of both…

  4. There are many Animal streamers out there now, we really could use our own category instead of being scattered all over twitch.

  5. Indie games on Twitch have close to zero discoverability. As an indie horror streamer myself, it would be amazing if instead of choosing the game title (that most won’t know to look for) there was a category for Indie Horror Games. Indie Horror Games should have it’s own category much like Retro Games do. The same goes for all other genres of indie games. Even just an Indie Games category in general would help. Not only would it give more discoverability to indie game streamers, but also to the indie game developers as well. I know many other streamers who…

  7. I saw it was marked as "Completed" that the pokemon directories were fixed but they really are not.
    Can you please merge Red/Blue/Yellow, Gold/Silver/Crystal, Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald, Let's Go Pikachu/Eevee, Diamond,Pearl, Platinum:
    Some are still completely on their own and are even missing the cover images from the recent changes. (Look at Let's Go Pikachu for reference)

  8. Game by Really Interactive called Virtuoso is missing on game categories

    Currently players are streaming under another game with the same name but this is incorrect - https://www.twitch.tv/directory/game/Virtuoso.

    This is the game we would like the new category for: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1213710/Virtuoso/

  11. As it says - there's a whole community of us who do Live Reading on the platform, with a substantial audience for it as well.

    Be it books, poems, articles, funny stories from reddit, or whatever else.

    Yet we have to use the category 'Just Chatting' and add the 'Reading Aloud' tag.

    Given that there's countless categories for super-niche hobbies and content, a proper category for the most universal hobby in existence would be good (especially as lots of lurkers enjoy live streams almost like a podcast or audiobook anyway).

  12. I would love to see "Breaking" added as it's own category. It would have dual positivity as breakers wouldn't be limited to listing their streams in the most popular categories (usually IRL or Pokemon Trading Card Game, even when most stores carry a lot more than just Pokemon now), and the card game categories would become a more targeted/enjoyable experience for viewers looking to watch live matches of their favorite TCG.

    Twitch added a category for Hot Tubs & Pools because it took over the IRL category, this is basically the same situation on a smaller scale. :)

  13. SpellForce 3 is now a game with a shared launcher, and everyone can play together. Please combine the two categories so as to not dilute viewership.

  14. Afterbirth is an expansion of Rebirth and is on Twitch but Afterbirth+ which is an expansion of Afterbirth isn't on it. Plus, the game is in IGDB. And there will be Repentance (which is an expansion of Afterbirth+) at the end of March. It will be weird to have every expansions on Twitch but not Afterbirth+

  15. A few of us cover motorsport related events (news, watch alongs, highlights, discussion), but we don't fit in well with Sports or Just Chatting. Since the 'Racing' category already exists, why not give it an icon (plus any other info, search terms, etc that is the standard)?

  16. The following titles are the original and ports/expansions of the same game:
    * Phantasy Star Online
    * Phantasy Star Online ver. 2 (expansion--note this is different than Phantasy Star Online 2 which is a different game and should be separate)
    * Phantasy Star Online Episode I & II (port + expansion)
    * Phantasy Star Online Episode I & II Plus (essentially just a patch!)

    This was previously proposed and implemented with https://twitch.uservoice.com/forums/310210-discovery-browsing-and-searching/suggestions/39303526-combine-the-5-phantasy-star-online-categories -- since then, the implementation was mostly undone, with all categories except Blue Burst mysteriously returning without announcement or explanation.

    When the categories were consolidated previously, it was…

  17. I follow about 30 games and yet have no way to see a list of all the channels currently streaming those games.

    We have a list of every single live channel. We have a short list of streams we may like. But if I want to raid someone new playing a game I follow, I need to open 30 tabs and go through them looking for the tags, viewer count, or overlay that appeal to me.

  20. New Category: 3D Printing.

    3D Printing streams have consumed the Makers & Crafting section on Twitch making the category painful to scroll through to find anything that isn't a 3D printer stream. Can they please get their own category?
