A couple of suggestions I recently had to include into Barefoot, all of this should have an on/off switch:
- Mark (in pm) people appearing in the known scammers list in the GogWiki - full post here.
- Have a compare tool of current games in library and in GogWiki profile - full post here.
- Automatically add game specific forums for recently added games (until Gog fixes this), could work with the compare mentioned above.
- Also add the "new" icon and notification of said games. Maybe link to the what did just update when there is an "update" notice
- Add Regional Pricing info when applicable on game pages of titles that have them.
- Default DISPLAY currency in Barefoot no matter what is on site (Not sure if it's relevant but people complained the Gog choice doesn't stick).
- Mark "check wiki" when relevant information is not on game pages regarding Online features (Gog somewhat lacks in that area).
- Track your giveaways and giveaway participation. Well more like optionally have a list of ongoing ones you had participated in.
- If you try to redeem a code that had an expiration date, and didn't redeem it, track that date to remind you if the time of expiration is near.
- Notice if a wishlist item is on sale/promo? Maybe notice if it's in a bundle (not on Gog, using gaming deals thread) too? Track voted wishlists?
- Sort s. results by date (or at least hide anything that wasn't posted in for over 2 years!). Add a "search in Magog" automatically generated link.
- Show # numbers on all time Bestsellers list :) Also track this number for the first 100 titles (with a +# -# from the last manual check).
By no means I say any of this would be easy or hard to accomplish, nor I aim for a quick dispatch, I'm merely suggesting what I believe could improve this wonderful tool :)
Thanks for everything! :)
