PSA - Get BLAEO working again after the new Steam privacy changes

So, Steam now sets your games, achievements and playtime as hidden by default. Here’s what you need to do to have it like before the change. I did this from the Steam client, but it should work from the web interface as well.

Go to edit your profile.
Click “My Privacy Settings” at the top right
Under “My Profile” (which should be set to “Public”), change “Game Details” to “Public”
Check and then uncheck the box “Always keep my total playtime private even if users can see my game details.”
Done!

Thanks for making me aware of this :)

Either do this or be my friend on Steam! (I’m kidding of course.) … Valve outdid themselves once more. I can’t even.

I’ll integrate those instructions in the site with the next update.

Thanks for the info!

Thank you! \o/

Sweet, Thanks man. Appreciate the heads up :D

Thanks for the info =)

<3 tso thanks i needed this

I have no idea what Steam is even doing these days. They should at least make it so you’re not automatically hiding everything by default. I wonder if this was really caused by wanting to protect users’ privacy or publishers worrying about having their sales out there because of SteamSpy. There was grumbling over that many moons ago as far as I remember.
