  1. Our "RetroAchievements" community is huge and many of us stream the games getting achievements in old one's games. The community programs emulators to have achievements (like finish the game, complete without dying... something like that). But it isn't "Just play retro" its different. Retro games can play casually, speedrunning, longplaying, first impress and other thing... but retroachievements is more than just play the games. If you create an category like that, many players will use the category to show their mastery game progression. I think many RAplayers will start to stream if it be created

  2. Nowadays Twitch focus isn't gaming anymore. I think everyone agrees with that statement. The content creators have evolved from gaming to other crazy categories that nobody even needs to mention and there's no need to.
    In my honest opinion, Twitch needs to rethink wether they want to turn their platform into a all inclusive and confusing mess or start to create a more specific space to accomodate all tastes and content.
    Today we can see everything in there, stuff that still creates discussion among the community.

    That said, I think it's the perfect time for them to adapt and create…

  3. I would love recommend channels to included lists of accounts I followed on twitter (as example) to show up and be promoted on the site and also have people be able to find my twitch account linked via twitter.

    Not only would I like this, I would also love to be able to incorporate my address book as well, find people I already know on twitch via my contacts.

  4. It'd be nice if we could see if a channel has any restrictions before we join it. For example, if I find a stream under the Browse page, I'd love to be able to see if that channel uses "Follower only chat" or "Subscriber only chat" and so on. I hate it when I join a channel just to find out that I have to follow the channel to be able to interact with the streamer/commuinity (especially if it's a smaller stream).

    It'd be handy if there were small icons under the preview of the stream that gives you this…

  5. My wish is an ignore button for recommendations in recommended channels - sure for single users.

    At the moment 07.40, Saturday cest time, Amouranth is in recommended channels.

    I understand recommended channels to help up smaller streamers, not to give additional support to super rich kids...

  6. I don't know if I'm putting this in the right spot, but I'd like to see a viewing format so I can watch multiple streams at one time, kinda like stream squad, but it's up to me to determine which channels I'm watching at one time, and which one is the primary channel that's coming through on audio. This was a feature I had with mlb.tv years ago, so I don't think it would be too difficult to implement, but I dunno how that would work with your particular code, so maybe it's more difficult than I'm thinking it would…

  7. there are millions of gamers that actually care about the future of society, because a bunch of awesome people are trying and succeeding in freeing up incredible amounts of time for humanity to use, have a better focus on PG13 and G rated games, to KEEP a better audience, this is my suggestion and opinion, please bring all ignorant opinions to my stream Gralien83.

  8. Currently, Word of Mouth is a big factor for channels being discovered by new viewers. You've found a great new channel that you think your friends will enjoy so you want to tell them about it. Currently, all you do is share the channel link with your friends and you've directly helped that channel grow... but there's no direct reward for helping that channel.

    What if there was a 'referral' system available where you could share a link, with a particular referral code, with your friends and if they choose to follow the channel you receive a bonus amount of…

  9. Hey Twitch,

    I suggest you guys ad a feature, what streamer you would like to switch to once the one you are watching ends stream. While most people watch twitch as a show some people also watch it as a background 'podcast' while playing a game.

     It would be neet that you atomaticly get transferd to another follwed streamer instead of complete slience of you wating or your game match to end so you can put on a nother streamer.
    
      This could also be done in a list of which stremer you pefer to switch to who is online from

  10. For those who like to watch & Chat within multiple streams (often via team up situations or watching fave streamers online at the same time) instead of forcing people use sites like multistream/multitwitch, where the embedded streams get interrupted by a notice telling people to watch the stream on the original site, why not build a page where viewers can do just that, watch several of their favorite channels (2-4 or more) side by side where every view will be counted, channel points will be earned, ability to chat in any is accessible, and best of all, no interruption (with…

  11. The discovery page lacks a "Play Random" feature. It might be fun and interesting to enter a random stream in a Category. It might help casual and new users find entertaining streams much easily and faster.
    The user that clicks on the button will be forwarded to a random stream in the previously chosen category. To find another stream the user will simply click on the same button that will appear on the header of the page.

  12. Add to favorites, Twitch should have the option to add ''ADD TO FAVORITES'' channels to make it easier for users to watch smaller channels that don't appear at the top of channels! Also to find channels that we don't remember the name...

  13. I would love to see a 'hotbar' when the mouse hovers over a streamers link in the 'Recommended channels' or '... also watch' areas of the sidebar. It should include a quick option to follow a streamer when you want to maybe check a streamer later on but continue watching the current one. Additional info could include a limited amount of the channel description, and last live or live now information.

  14. Drop down categories to reduce the size of the list so that users don't have to "guess" or slog through the huge list of tags that is growing.
    The tags list SHOULD continue to grow, more tags == better.
    This poses an issue with searching for what is available. The growing list leaves users like myself guessing what words are available. Even if what we're thinking is in the list we might not have the exact right word in mind, meaning the only existing option we have is to scroll through the intimidating list that is available until we see…

  15. The Live Channels You Follow page is a hidden gem. I love it and I don't want it to go away or change.

    It would be great if there could be a button to switch to a Carousel Browse View, like the one on the home page, so I can quickly flip through my followed channels, seeing and hearing what they are up to.

    This would help me visit channels I forget about / have a bad habit of ignoring. This would also help me choose a place to raid where I can really tell what the vibe is like…

  16. This would be every month have new creators highlighted in those sections. This would be a great way to promote twitch ambassadors more as well as creators that are really just making great content regardless of their small size. Right now its incredibly difficult to get any exposure on twitch and i think this would be great right now.

  18. Queue streams, lets say youre watching twitch late at night and wanna take a step away from the keyboard/mouse to lay in bed or something. You could just que up a list of streamers and if the first one goes offline, twitch automatically switches to your next streamer in your que.

  19. A 18+ symbol placed next to live or the channel name for streams that have been marked as mature by the channel owner.
    The current notification for mature channels can be easily overlook, or in case on a shared computer, a user maybe left unaware that the channel they are watching is mature.
