  2. Please reintroduce multi tag filters. Currently as it stands you can only search for channels with one language tag and one other tag. Previously on pc you were able to search for channels with as many tags filtered as you wanted. This feature was also available on mobile until recently.

  3. Adding literature as a category would open up the possibility of book clubs, writing, co-writing, etc. The other categories don’t fit as well as they could.

  4. Hello,

    It seems like the game category „Unreal Tournament“ was removed since it can't be found anymore. I am not sure if this was by accident or based on a conscious decision after the development of Unreal Tournament 4 was stopped by Epic last year.

    However, the category „Unreal Tournament“ is still needed. It is in daily use by the Unreal Tournament community that is maintaining and still actively playing as well as streaming the original game from 1999 (usually referred to as “UT” or “UT99”). Besides that, Unreal Tournament 4 (“UT4”) is also still maintained by the community as…

  5. I like that you can say "not interested" to specific games (or categories) but I wish you could do it for tags as well.

    For example, if you don't want be recommended "no backseating allowed" channels, you should be able to filter those recommended channels out.

    This would also be useful for filtering out non-English recommendations that I keep getting or certain game genres or stream types that that a user might not care about.

  6. For years, the "I Wanna Be The Guy" category on Twitch has been the main hub for the original game along with its 10k+ fangames. There have been increasingly more categories added to Twitch for various fangames, and it only stands to divide the category for an already relatively small community.

    I would like to request that the "I Wanna Be the Guy" category is renamed to "I Wanna Be The Guy + Fangames" and that the following games be removed from Twitch (and the followers migrated to the new category if possible):

    I Wanna Be The Boshy

  7. Enable users to block specific tags, such as 'first-person camera' in order to avoid being recommended categories or videos that trigger motion sickness.

    This would also be helpful for avoiding content that may be distressing (e.g. blocking the horror tag) and just for avoiding whole genres of games that don't interest you (e.g. FPS tag), rather than having to mark individual categories for single games as 'not interested'.

  8. Some categories, especially the Super Mario 64 one, have been flooded by 24/7 channels with the sole purpose of generating revenue. They clog up the directory and make it harder to find live content. A lot of these channels exist purely to be raided into and farm AFK viewers, and a majority of the community dislike them and want them elsewhere. I'm sure advertisers also wouldn't like paying for ads being played to AFK people. Having these channels be required to be in "Always On" or "Music" (for the 24/7 Music streams, there may be other categories that should have…

  9. Dear IGDB Team,

    Our community recently added our open-source game remake 2004Scape to IGDB. However, it was incorrectly categorized as a mod rather than a standalone game. While we understand that it is unofficial, it is not a mod and it is a complete, independent remake. Unfortunately, this misclassification limits visibility for our project and its content creators, preventing us from establishing a distinct identity separate from the official game.

    We respectfully request that 2004Scape be recognized with its own category, ensuring our community has a dedicated space apart from the official game listing. We are not seeking to advertise…

  10. Im streaming mostly IRL on my farm and I do not find Just Chatting as an channel good enough for me. I would prefer to have an Agriculture Channel in twitch not just for me but for other IRL farmers to join and show what their doing on their farms etc.

    I feel that I'm breaking some rules for not paying attention on chat while I work pluss I need to pay attention on my work, so I really hope you consider my option on putting up a new channel on twitch! :)

  11. I love being able to browse when I'm bored, but I would love to see an option to exclude (and save) certain tags.
    For example: "Sports game"
    I know that I will never be interested in Sports games, so having the option to exclude those would be so much easier than clicking each and every sports game to go "Not interested".
    Of course there would need to be an option to see and edit such a saved list, so people could remove tags from their exclusion list if they change their minds.

  12. Currently there is a category for both 'Card Game' and 'Card Games' however many card games are already have their own categories such as Pokemon, Yu-Gi-Oh etc.

    Dragon Ball Super Card Game should also have it's own category. I along with many others regularly stream Dragon Ball Super tournaments at our local card shops or from our homes.

    It would be beneficial to have its own category to increase its exposure to this wonderful game and also help the Twitch streamers stream proper category.

    Thank you!

  13. The ASMR category and a lot of its creators have been affected by a massive wave of ear licking streams, which do not reflect the ASMR category's purpose.
    I'm proposing the creation of a different category for that so that creators can all have their streams labelled correctly and viewers can easily find what they are looking for.
    There are a lot of different subcategories when it comes to ASMR and I think it's important for Twitch to notice and do something about it. Imagine playing a game under a category called "Games", it wouldn't specify what the stream is…

  14. Apart from being able to select streams by view count, high to low and vice versa, why not make a different category for smaller streamers in games to separate from bigger streamers, allowing the smaller streamers to watch among themselves and build up their audience without having to compete for spotlight from bigger viewer capture-ers.

  15. It would be great if there could be a pop-up appear for viewers when opening a stream that shows them the details of any content warnings for the stream's selected game category.

    There are an increasing number of games that contain content and/or trigger warnings for players at the start of the game, which is great. However, they are generally only displayed at the beginning of the game and not shown again after. If a viewer is exploring Twitch and opens a stream after the initial content warning has been displayed in the game they don't get to see it.…

  16. The Music category has got extremely stacked in the last couple of years. I'd like to suggest creating sub-categories for Music, or more specific Music categories like Music Production, DJ, Radio, Performance, etc...

    With Music being a such a broad category at the moment I feel like it's a challenge for people to find the specific kind of Music content they want and it would also help music streamers who specialise in specific areas of the category find their audience a lot easier in what is currently a massively popular (but congested) category.

  17. Create a PokeMMO category, as Pokémon MMO 3D is another game. This will put the popular PokeMMO streamers in the corresponding category.

  19. I noticed certain games like pokemon people always stream under the most recent game so people can more easily find pokemon streams of any pokemon game. Instead any games in a franchise should have a category for said franchise that shows all the streams for a game of a certain franchise. This way someone can stream under Pokemon Red/Blue and another person can be streaming under Pokemon Black/White and both streams would show up on the Pokemon Franchise Category. This would be the case for all other major franchises like Mario, Zelda, Call of Duty, etc.

  20. Metazoo is a new TCG, rapidly growing in popularity that launched it's first set in summer of 2021. The game has been streamed a decent amount though under the Pokemon Trading Card Game category. The game having it's own category would allow fans to follow the game to watch gameplay, unboxings and breaks from a variety of creators.
