Add a user notes section It's sometimes useful to note things down for private use (like why you added a game to the wishlist), that wouldn't fit into the review section.
This could be either in list view or game view.

Detach Characters from Credits (Proper Characters DB) 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:

Allow sorting by times played or number of ratings It would be a better way of showing which games have been played and which have ratings skewed by less amount of plays.

Allow DLCs, Expansions, Packs/Addons, Updates, Seasons, and Mods to be applied to multiple games 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.

Place the "Storyline" section higher up in a game's page. A bit of a smaller suggestion, but I think it's a pretty vital one. The storyline description functions as a hook of sorts that attracts players to the game, just as much as the Description and Screenshot sections. I find it counterintuitive that the storyline is buried all the way to the bottom of the page... it should be more visible, in my opinion. i.e. both physical game boxes and game pages on online storefronts like PSN or Steam have game descriptions, storyline descriptions , and images all located close together because they're all important aspects to pull gamers in.

Add the Year a game was published/released on it's info page It would be cool if the date the game was published was also in the game info card, next to the little text blurb summary.

Add more categories and/or types of game covers. I think other categories for covers aside from Region-localization should be added.
Such as whether it's Digital or Physical (since game covers can differ between a physical box or the digital gamestore, i.e. PSN/xbox store/etc, even though it seems to be a fairly rare occurence).
Maybe even being able to say what console(s) a specific cover is for, which is helpful for some cases, such as games that might have different covers for re-releases across different generations of platforms (which also seems rare, but it does happen, i.e. the Devil May Cry HD collection has different covers for its ps3/xbox360…

Game Manuals This one is pretty self explanatory - having a dedicated image category to reserve for game manuals. While it would be incredible to have a method of flipping through the images like a book, just attaching a PDF would still certainly be better than nothing. It's a definitely overlooked but essential piece of preserving game information, and it would be great to have it here.

Dedicated Image Categorization I think that while it's great that contributers can add a label to each image, it would vastly improve the image database if there were dedicated sections/categories to put specific types of images, and therefore allow specific categories of images to be called and viewed. Some databases such as MobyGames (ex. https://www.mobygames.com/game/ps2/silent-hill-2/cover-art) and screenscraper (ex. https://www.screenscraper.fr/gameinfos.php?gameid=5441&action=onglet&zone=gameinfosmedias) have such categories, and I think that having dedicated sections to put images such as rear cover, CD labels, spines, logos and Title Screens would be an extremely important part of preserving game information, especially older physical titles. I know it's a…

Put what "IGDB" is instead of using an abbreviation. 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?

Merging a few redundant game categories I've come across a few videogame categories that should be merged together. First are duplicate categories for the same game:
- "Digimon Battle" and "Digimon RPG" are the same game, the latter being the title of the current English release.
- "Digimon World 2003" and "Digimon World 3" refer to the same game; the title change was a region difference. Should merge and rename to "Digimon World 3 / Digimon World 2003".
- There are two categories named "Digimon" when I search for them, one with a cover and one without, not sure if that's a bug or something that needs to be…

Pagination Failures I'm experiencing an issue where the maximum number of objects allowed by the "limit" property isn't being returned, despite that number of objects existing.
Consider this query:
{baseUrl}/games
body (text/plain): fields name,cover.imageid,firstrelease_date,platforms.name;limit: 10;offset: 30;search "halo";It's currently only returning 9 objects, but a search on IGDB.com reveals that there are 73 total and other queries (e.g., offset 40;) give 10 results as expected.

Change cover art for "Unreal" (1998) Hello!
The game "Unreal" (1998) has this edited Scabbard album cover (1996) as a picture for its the Twitch category. This has caused confusion in the past whether the category is actually for the game or not. It may also infringe some copyright laws regarding the album cover. Is there any way you can update it to a relevant picture? There are a few box art covers and other official artwork you can use instead of what seems to be a fanmade edit.
1 voteHello,
Could you clarify which game you are referring to.
This Unreal 1998? https://www.igdb.com/games/unreal

[Mockup included] Enable the viewing and creation of ratings from within a list Make the rating stars on the game page visible from the game's position on a list so that it can be rated without having to open a new page for every single game.
Here's a mock-up in list view:
https://imgur.com/a/W80TFQUFor grid view, a similar approach to letterboxd's database could be taken:
https://imgur.com/a/tsu3JO6This website has a much more robust database than IMDB, but it has a huge disadvantage in how much slower it is to make ratings.
Having to go to each games individual page to make a rating is extremely tedious, especially for new database users who have…
