Minorly overhaul "Play Mode"

Issue #5652 new
The T created an issue

I’m really confused about “Play Mode”; that it scrapes games as being only one of the 3: Single Player, Multiplayer, or Co-operative. But many games are a combination of those: Donkey Kong 64 has a multiplayer mode, but most people would think of that as primarily a single player game. Many Beat 'em ups are cooperative, but have a competitive Fighting mode.

It would be useful if the database marked off all of those categories as relevant, rather than just one.

Separate to this, another suggestion: differentiate Local Multiplayer and Online Multiplayer (and naturally be able to choose both at the same time).

Consider differentating/clarifying if “Multiplayer” solely means competitive or any game that is Cooperative is by default Multiplayer. If the prior, “Multiplayer” might be a misnomer.

Thanks for taking the time!
