The way Twitch works now, a streamer has to either choose a game or a custom category, like Retro or Creative. The problem with this is that for obscure games, a category like Retro will have a much bigger audience and more people following who might get the chance to click on a channel with a game they weren't following. On the other hand, this means that anyone that IS following that game will never get the chance to know that people in the Retro channel are streaming it unless they frequently check the channel.
If we could make it so that category channels were broader and secondary to the game channel itself, this would enable streamers to get access to the audience for both.
