thanks for all the hard work figuring out all the minute details of whether and how much EOS used for each game is way too much for me, but, sure, i'll add that link for that particular game, why not

Dev response for Axis Unseen: https://testx-steam.c5game.com/app/1807810/discussions/0/758429831032669922/?tscn=1771950290#c758430178052667732
Might be good to edit review with a link to the reply...? Not that devs are 100% telling the truth but in any case it's a reference point. At the end of the day one must test for themselves.

Also, dev response concerning EOS in Trine games for anyone interested: https://testx-steam.c5game.com/app/690640/discussions/0/748296282477469217/?tscn=1771074469#c748296282477539279

Dev(s) of https://testx-steam.c5game.com/steamstore/developer/rocketwerkz specifically in forum of https://testx-steam.c5game.com/steamstore/app/1149460/ICARUS/ permanently ban people without warning who mention EOS, even though the game has it. There are also some disturbing individuals there with attacks/threats just for simply stating the game has EOS. Definitely worth a mention I'd say.

Trine 1, 2, 3 and 4 just had EOS added. Now all 5 titles have it. I wonder if we have THQ Nordic to thank for that once again, since they published the 5th title.

They're already linked to in the curator's description! I don't think i can do any better than that

Might also be good to 'advertise' the other curators too(B & C) so more people know they exist. Some sort of pinned place.

Added it to the list, thanjs

Thread got immediately locked too. https://testx-steam.c5game.com/app/1154030/discussions/0/682987562005071239/
Also noticed it uses 'EpicWebHelper.exe', which I assume is related. Just another reason not to buy anything from THQN.

Seems Titan Quest II just had EOS added. To be expected at this point from THQ Nordic.

That's a big one, thanks

No longer seems to have EOS(main curator).

Got rid of it, thanks!

Also to potentially save time, the game's review is in EOS curator B.

Seems to no longer use EOS. Not sure when it was changed, but only just noticed it(of course doing a full verify of files first, just in case).

Sorted

Hi, Wyrd World does not use EOS. It uses Steam Online Subsystem. Don't even have the EOS plugin installed for the version of ue5 I use to work on it. And I have no intention of adding it in the future.

The second curator page has reached the limit if 2000 reviews, and a third curator page has beed created. The full list of EOS curator pages is as follows:
https://testx-steam.c5game.com/steamstore/curator/45082142-Epic-Online-Services/ (this group)
https://testx-steam.c5game.com/steamstore/curator/45298509-Epic-Online-Services-B/
https://testx-steam.c5game.com/steamstore/curator/45800935-Epic-Online-Services-C/ (the new page)

Steamdb was listing it as using EOS at one point, but not anymore, and I've removed it from the curator now, tthanks

Hi, we do not use EOS nor do we intend to add it for Strikers Club: https://testx-steam.c5game.com/steamstore/app/1952920/Strikers_Club/

Please let me know if your method of checking says anything different because we are not intentionally shipping anything related to EOS.

Thanks!

https://testx-steam.c5game.com/steamstore/app/793460/112_Operator/ has had EOS added to it.

The Hive has had EOS removed again. It seems it was an innocent mistake.

Small update from me;
Dwarven Realms and Dave the Diver added EOS with their latest updates I believe.

Small update for The Hive:
https://testx-steam.c5game.com/app/325730/discussions/0/608668111724393535/
Hopefully they will remove it soon.

https://testx-steam.c5game.com/steamstore/app/325730/The_Hive/ had EOS added
Already created some posts in the game's forum to hopefully get it removed.

Thanks for the update, got rid of the games you mentioned

Monthly-ish update on EOS in the library.
Turbo Sloths, Diplomacy is not an Option, Dwarven Realms and Greedland got eos removed.
Bad news; Cabin Factory, Streets of Rogue, Diorama Builder and Nuclear NIghtmare added it

Thanks for letting me know about ATOM, removed from the list

Good news; Atom RPG Trudograd has eos finally removed.
Bad news; Dollmare, order 13 and polygon storm now have it since I added the games to my library a few weeks ago, and greedland as wolf stated.

It seems Greedland just had EOS added to it. Confirmed with the DLL.

Understandable.

I have given up on trying to catalogue demo and beta versions just cause of the sheer amount of them

Combat Master: Battle to DEATH demo uses EOS. From my testing - It can be deleted and the demo launches without it. But still.

ATOM RPG Trudograd and perhaps their other/future games may remove EOS soon. Source:

Eyes peeled...

Oh that's cool, I'll be sure to keep an eye out for any 'worthy' EOS titles that aren't curated yet. Cheers!

I don't have to own the games. But I can't curate games that I am not allowed to purchase due to region locks and such -- so far, only one obscure Chinese game with EOS fell into that category, so it's not a big deal

Ah that's great to hear. I'll continue keeping an eye on things on my end. I just check my hard drives for EOSSDK once in a while(using Everything search software - super handy).

By the way do you need to own games to curate them or how does it work? Can you just review anything on Steam regardless of ownership?

Of course I do, that's why I didn't remove the Spellforce 3 games And I appreciate you letting me know about the games that got EOS removed. There are probably more titles that are false positives, but checking and removing them systematically would be a massive undertaking due to how poorly designed Steam's curator management is. So I'm happy to at least get rid of the ones you tell me about I've abandoned the idea of checking demos a while ago anyway, too much work!!

By the way, just wondering if you double check stuff, in case I do make a rare mistake. Seems like sometimes the demos that seem to use the same appid/game page do still have EOS, but I don't check them. The last thing I'd want to do is give (partially)incorrect information..!

Removed!

https://testx-steam.c5game.com/steamstore/app/1295500/Warhammer_40000_Battlesector/ no longer using EOS

removed from the list, cheers

https://testx-steam.c5game.com/steamstore/app/1134100/Frozenheim/ no longer using EOS

Was talking about Legends Untold. Thought it was removed. Will pick up both if they actually listen to players and remove it from their first game as well. Seems promising.
Thanks for the info.

Which previous game did you mean? Survivor is their latest title, while Legends Untold came before it. Here is the post concerning the former by the way:
https://testx-steam.c5game.com/app/2922410/discussions/0/597391905481900756/

That's some interesting news. I was going to pick up LEgends Untold, but didn't know they haven't removed it yet.
Has anyone mentioned that their previous game still has eos in it? Maybe they'll remove it then as well?

Thanks for letting me know, I'll remove Achilles: Survivor after the steamdb page updates

One of the devs also mentioned the following, which may be useful to know: "Unreal Engine adds EOS by default" so that's yet another reason to avoid modern UE titles like the plague.

Achilles: Survivor just removed EOS with an update after mentioning it to the devs on their forums.

Their other Achilles game, Achilles Legends Untold, sadly still has EOS.

Got rid of Control and Chicken Journey, thanks
