How it works:
  • Choose a relevant category for your idea and check to see if any other users have already submitted this suggestion before creating your own
  • Be clear with your suggestion, provide examples and solutions to the problem you are posing. Suggestions without actionable feedback may be closed without comment
  • Upvote existing ideas, as opposed to creating multiple similar requests
  • Be sure to share your suggestion with others to gain more support!
  • Note: Suggestions are not guarantees that we will take action on an idea. We will try our best to communicate why an idea may not work, but may not always be able to share that information.
  • Titles that are unclear or unnecessarily vulgar may be reworded to better reflect the request for ease of discovery

  1. In "Your Changes/Contributions", if you have re-edited the same entry multiple times, be it for corrections or to add additional data prior to Approval, you will see multiple posts for the same entry. This can overload the page with alot of duplicates that don't really change points from each or vary the points awards after Approval.

    It would probably be more appropriate if these duplicates were just merged into a single entry.

  2. One of the things that really confuses me about IGDB is that I often have interactions with IGDB admins that make me wonder if they know Twitch isn't paying me to work for IGDB.

    IGDB admins have repeatedly been very snappy with me when I make several contributions to the database, and have gone out of their way to make it obvious how annoyed they are with me. So let me spell it out louder for the people in the back,

    You are the ones who are being paid. I'm taking my free time to submit information to make this…

  3. There are two suggestions over here, the first one is fixing the Crypto Category, it only has got the coins logos, but the description is completely wrong, which should be fixed.

    Second thing is that it would be good if Twitch use Crypto as payment methods, less fees, available in more countries. I believe that the platform will generate larger income.

  4. The popular category 'Games + Demo's' currently has missing cover art.

    I reached out to the IGDB team and they said "As these specific categories are directly handled by Twitch and generally handled internally, it would best be submitted to their UserVoice" with that being said, I would like to submit a piece of Cover Art for approval for the category.

    As I can't attach a photo, here are my two submissions (I prefer option 2):

    1) https://pbs.twimg.com/media/GBw7CcibkAA7a85?format=jpg&name=small (Alternative link: https://imgur.com/Fl9OeNW)

  5. As I make changes to entries on existing titles in the database, the Karma Hunters Contributions listing focuses on entries that are Missing Covers or box art entirely. This omits entries that have been uploaded from Steam that display in 600x900 and do not adhere to the 3:4 ratio that would display in the Twitch category. It would be great to see a global breakdown of those that are in error so they can be addressed by the community.

  6. Right now on Twitch, if you search for "Master of Orion", which is a 4-games franchise, you can't find the most recent one from 2016, because it shares the same name as the first one.

    Can you please fix this? Either call the new one "Master of Orion: Conquer the Stars", or add a (2016) at the end. Or rename the first one "Master of Orion I".

    That would fix it. Otherwise, can't find the most recent one.

    Thanks.

  7. The description for the Windham Classics "Wizard of Oz" C64 game from 1985 is wrong and is actually for the 1994 SNES game of the same name. It should say...

    "Based on the famous novel by L. Frank Baum, the Wizard of Oz places the player in the role of Dorothy Gale, who is transported by a cyclone to the magical world of Oz. Accompanied by her dog Toto, a Scarecrow, a Tin Woodman, and a Lion, she tries to find her way to the Emerald City, where she hopes the Wizard of Oz can help her find a way…

  8. So at the moment Wikia/Fandom is taking a lot of bad coverage due to being a toxic platform, housing a ton of ads, introducing AI and converting the website more into a social media hub than a wiki. With this, wikis are moving away from the platform either to start there own domains (like https://minecraft.wiki/) or switching to Wiki.gg as a web-hosting platform.

    Would it be possible to change the Wikia logo to a generalized wiki logo instead?

    Hello!


    Thank you for raising this, we've been discussing with our community on Discord as well that have raised similar concerns. 

    We're looking at expanding our coverage of wiki beyond specifically wikia or fandom. 

    We're currently researching to update our guidelines, and changes on the site (logos, wording) will be reflected accordingly. 


    Thanks!

  10. Why are some of the PS1, PS2, & PSP Classics titles being released on the PS4 & PS5 being given duplicate entries and being called "ports"? These games are not ports, they are the same exact game released on PS1, PS2, & PSP playable on PS4 & PS5 entirely through emulation. There is a layer outside of the game that allows the unlocking of trophies and save states, however the game itself is completely unmodified, anything extra is all being done through the consoles emulation layer.

    Examples of this are Twisted Metal, Syphon Filter, The Legend of Dragoon, and many…

  11. There are two video games named Splatterhouse. One of them is a 3D M-rated video game that was released in 2010 for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. The second is a 2D T-rated video game that was released in 1988 in arcades and consoles such as the TurboGrafx-16.

    To keep them distinct, the IGDB labels the M-rated video game “Splatterhouse (2010)” and the T-rated video game “Splatterhouse (1988)”.

    But in Twitch, both video games are listed as “Splatterhouse”. As a result, when a streamer chooses the game “Splatterhouse”, Twitch automatically assumes the streamer is playing both Splatterhouse (2010) and…

  14. The Binding of Isaac: Repentance has 2 same categories of itself for some reason, whilst being the same thing.

    It should only be 1 category imo to prevent confusion

  15. Please allow us to comment on changes after they have been discarded. There is no way to know whether there is a need to argue your case in the first place since the admins' willingness to accept new games wildly varies. It takes a lot of time to add them and sometimes they get discarded despite having a valid reason to exist. For instance, I recently added all three 16-bit remakes of Mega Man 1-3 included in Mega Man: The Wily Wars, all fo which have been rejected with the reasoning "they are already catalogued in the bundle". However, there…

  16. Right now character data is linked to their respective voice actors, which is linked to the game credits, the thing is game credits is a feature quite forgotten at this point, and also not all characters have voice actors, would be possible to make us link and create character data for each game without needing to add the game's whole credits?

    Something like a new "Characters" section in a game page.
    And being able to create and link characters entries in games.

    Something like this:

  17. Some games share additional content such as DLC, Expansions, Packs/Addons, Updates, Seasons, and Mods with ports of their game or sequels. While this would be a limited specific use case it will allow content pages to be shared between titles and limiting duplicates.

    A great example is Minecraft. The latest update for Minecraft, the 1.19 Wild Update appears twice on IGDB. Once for the original Minecraft: Java Edition and another for the port Minecraft: Bedrock Edition. These two pages contain the same content and there isn't much of a reason for it to be separate.

  19. Since people aren't going to automatically know what this is and won't necessarily want to go digging and researching it, why not just title it properly?
