Having this 6 months limit is fine for other users not taking your username. But if you had it yourself before, you should be able to pick it again.

Yes, this is a good idea. As stated, several languages have extended their alphabets and diacritics mark different pronunciation of letters and are important. Some languages even considers these to be separate letters, like Spanish Ñ is a separate letter from N, and Swedish Ä is a separate letter from A. Replacing Ñ with N or Ä with A would be considered just as much of a typo as replacing W with V in English.
Since English users usually aren't able to type diacritics, they can still replace Á with A and it will work. Basically, Á Ä Å Â Ã all count as A for when referencing a user.
In German, Ä, Ö, Ü should be replaced with AE, OE, UE, but an English speaker who sees the name "Göran" wouldn't know the username is actually "Goeran", so it's better to require that only O in the username can be replaced with Ö in the display name. Plus that not all languages replace Ö with OE anyway.
Here is the list of extended Latin characters to Latin Extended-A:
A = ÀàÁáÂâÃãÄäÅåĀāĂ㥹
C = ÇçĆćĈĉĊċČč
D = ÐðĎďĐđ
E = ÈèÉéÊêËëĒēĔĕĖėĘęĚě
G = ĜĝĞğĠġĢģ
H = ĤĥĦħ
I = ÌìÍíÎîÏïĨĩĪīĬĭĮį
J = Ĵĵ
K = Ķķ
L = ĹĺĻļĽľĿŀŁł
N = ÑñŃńŅņŇňŊŋ
O = ÒòÓóÔôÕõÖöØøŌōŎŏŐő
R = ŔŕŖŗŘř
S = ŚśŜŝŞşŠš
T = ŢţŤťŦŧ
T = ÙùÚúÛûÜüŨũŪūŬŭŮůŰűŲų
W = Ŵŵ
Y = ÝýŶŷŸÿ
Z = ŹźŻżŽžSome special characters:
Ææ - this is an AE-ligature, so it might be better to require to replace AE in the username with this. So display name "æon" would be username "aeon".
Œœ - same rule can apply to this letter, so OE required. So display name "cœur" would be username "coeur".
İı - Turkish doesn't consider Ii to be the same letter, instead they use Iı and İi instead. So while I and i are already allowed on Twitch, İ and ı has to be added too.PonPonTheBonBon

Other regions that should be added is every single country, honestly. Because releases are different even within Europe, and this is also very useful when adding localised content such as titles and covers.

This is interesting, so even though TW or HK release are a way to enter the Mainland market, they are actually different? in terms of content and/or release dates?
Sounds like we need to investigate this further.
If you happen to have example of some titles please share them in a comment in here as that would help.Thanks!

Hi! We think this is a great idea, and wouldn't be hard to do. It's indeed a good way to mark all those character trailers (there are a lot of them). We have put this in our backlog and will try to get to it as soon as possible. Thanks!

Hey! we had a chat about this internally and landed on the fact it could become problematic, so we wanted to double check your suggestion in more details.
How would we define the order within a series? As this could be seen either as chronologically by release, or by story.For example, MGS3 being the first one in the story, yet the 3rd one by release date. This could prove very divisive either way.
Another issue that could be problematic are differences in the order by region. Final Fantasy is an infamous case, where FFVI was released as FFIII in North America for example.
Was this the sort of approach you had in mind with such a feature? Let us know :)

I think the most objective way is to consider the order being the order of the very first release of each entry.
For the example of Final Fantasy, this would (likely) be the Japanese original releases that determines the release order, unless a certain release was before the Japanese release, then that counts instead. So even though several games weren't originally released in North America, that wouldn't matter, since it would be based on Japan. Unless you want the sequel-order to be per region.
But perhaps this system would be the best suited for games where the order is clear.

Hey! yes this is a great suggestion, we’ve definitely been wanting to expand our Game Media coverage with logos.
Especially for PressKits for example.PonPonTheBonBon

Hey! We have decided that it would be very interesting to have the ELSPA ratings on IGDB and we would like to add it in the near future. We we probably bundle a couple of new age ratings together and add it sometime next year.

Diacritics should at least be allowed for display name instead of username. This ensures that everyone can type the username at least.
