  1. Please add options to order our lists by name, date of addition, date of launch, etc. The lists options are too scarce!

    Heya!

    Dropping by to mention list management improvements are in progress :)

    We've already put live:

    • better custom list edit tools (duplicate warnings, floating nav, mov games to top/bottom etc..)
    • Support for numbered list in grid view
    • Security fixes on list for duplicates or disabled games

    List sorting is next up coming very soon. Stay tuned!

  2. Display the user rating you rated for games in lists; would be easier to see which ones you have rated.

  3. Adding filter options to lists would be great. For example, if I want to filter a list to check only a specific genre, series or franchise, for example.

  4. An option to add owned games and when you add a bundle their games are added to the list of owned games. Games should have a subcategory in the list preview for DLC's and extras, not a game entity. This would make a list readable for the user.

  5. I'd like to make a list of some games, and describe why I added them to the list, and share that information with friends. Right now, I can add descriptions and share the list, but for some reason it hides the descriptions when someone else views the page.

  6. I want to send link to my Rated list, so that my friends would be able to see what games I like the most. It would be handy if it would be possible to send the link to the list, where everything is sorted from highest score to the lowest score. Currently, when I send the link, games are sorted by the date I rated them, no matter how I sort before copying the link

  7. Currently custom lists can be set as "Private" when creating the list or via "Edit" page available in list view. But built-in "Played" and "Want to Play" lists don't have this option there and they are always publicly visible (checked by opening list url in incognito mode).

    Also there is "Public game lists" checkbox in profile settings (unchecked by default) but it does not affect those lists (tried check and uncheck several times - nothing happens to those lists)

    It would be nice to have an option to make built-in lists private. Maybe that "Public game lists" checkbox supposed to…

  8. In IGDB listings, Japanese kana are romanized and kanjis are displayed as Chinese readings.

    Example: 今年終了したゲーム (means games finished this year)
    URL: igdb.com/users/[username]/lists/jin-nian-zhong-liao-sitagemu
    (Japanese readings: kotoshi-shyuuryou-shitagemu)

    If Japanese list names are to be romanized, the kanji should also be romanized. Actually, I could not think of any advantage of romanizing Japanese list names. Why couldn't we just generate a random code?

  11. Currently, custom lists seem to only show up on Desktop and fail to be listed on the mobile versions.
    Is that something you can fix/add?

  12. Currently, there are ratings displayed in "Rated" list (https://www.igdb.com/users/<username>/lists/rated). However, they are written in too small font. Originally I wanted to suggest to display ratings, because I didn't notice them at all. The main thing someone would go to this list is to see what ratings user gave to certain games. So, it would be better if those ratings were displayed in bigger font and maybe not in grey color.

    Hey! yes that’s a good point. The automated lists (Want/Playing/Played/Rated/Reviewed) are all very old and in need of a big revamp.
    Displaying the rating with our star rating for example would be indeed better suited than a grey number.

    While Lists feature upgrade is definitely something we want to do, it’s not currently in our short term roadmap unfortunately. We’ll keep the community in the loop as soon as we tackle that!

    Thanks!

  13. When sorting custom lists by other fields like "IGDB Rating", "Release Date", or "Date Added", it would be nice to show these fields in the list so that people can view the information and confirm that the list is sorted correctly.

    For example, sorting by "Date Added" would show the list of games but also show the actual date it was added:

    1. Game A ~~~~ 2026-03-01
    2. Game B ~~~~ 2026-05-01
    3. Game C ~~~~ 2026-08-01

    Likewise if one were to sort by IGDB rating:

    1. Game A ~~~~ 5.6
    2. Game B ~~~~ 8.9
    3. Game C ~~~~ 9.2

  14. In the current custom lists, you can only sort by the full release date.

    Allow an option to sort by any release date for the game and not only by full release dates.

    For example, in the current implementation, when sorting a custom list by release date with the oldest first, this is what the list would show:

    1. Game A - Full Release 2026
    2. Game B - Full Release 2028
    3. Game C - Early Access Release 2027

    This is not intuitive since Game C would release earlier than Game B, and ideally should appear as follows:

    1. Game A - Full…

  15. As it stands, there is not efficient way to see how your played games are divided/sorted other than by IGDB rating, which is less meaningful than a personal rating. I recommend showing a user's rating in auto-generated lists (played, playing, etc.) and allow sorting by user rating. This allows a user to quickly view and reference where certain games stand in their list, especially for those of us which a large number of completed games.

    Thanks for your consideration!

  17. Hi,

    On the profile (https://www.igdb.com/users/***) the lists order should be : Want > Playing > Played, like everywhere in the site, instead of the present order : Played > Playing > Want

    Reviewed and rated lists should be on the second line than on the first one too, for a better user interface experience.

    Thanks !

  18. On IGDB lists, sub status should remain updatable from the list view, even if the game is on a personal list.
    I don't know if it's a bug or a feature (if so, should be explain somewhere).
    Thank you !
