Merge the existing three categories for Doom 64 into one
There currently exist three seperate categories for Doom 64: one for the original Nintendo 64 game, one for the (unofficial) Doom 64 EX sourceport, and one for the (official) 2020 re-release.
While differences exist between them, they are not significant enough to reasonably warrant seperate categories. People who stream Doom 64 most often stream to the original category as it has the most followers, regardless if they are playing the original on the Nintendo 64, the EX sourceport on PC, or the 2020 re-release on PC or any modern console.
Merging the categories into one would improve discoverability for people who stream Doom 64, as well as for viewers looking for Doom 64 streams. This would be especially valuable for Doom 64 because it is a less popular game.
Thank you for your consideration!
The categories in question:

When I started streaming Doom64 this also greatly confused me, as I wasn't in the community at the time and had no idea what EX was. I just wanted to play some cool game :D
I think this would be a great change. -

This isn't limited to just Doom 64, and it gets confusing every single time. I don't even know why there's more than one.

It's always confused me why there is more than one.
I think the original was for Doom 64 EX.
And then another was made when Doom 64 Remaster was released.
I didnt know there was a third. What's that for?
Anyways... having just one would be much better. Doom64 is Doom64 whatever engine it's running from. -

Just one Doom 64 category would be the most simple way.
You can let people know by simply giving appropriate vod titles, instead of click-baiting. lol
Type "port, wad, mod" for example and after that whatever you like. -

This will be great! Most other classic games with rereleases do not have this many categories to keep track of. Also with all of the new Doom 64 ports (EX+, Super EX+, EX+ Enhanced, Absolution TC, Dreamcast, and others) it would be too much to have categories for all of them.
