What exactly am I wrong about? It is just "Small Mode", which we could already do. You still need to disable it if you want access to little things like the store. It is not "List View", which from comments on places like Steam Discussions, reddit, 4chan, and this very thread, is what people want back.

Dunno what happened but I migrated to the Beta and the largest Steam process now takes 50MB of RAM instead of 200~400.

Codex 2014 Make the Codex Great Again! Grab the Codex by the pussy
Right, some time ago I promised that I'd Name and Shame game developers/publishers who haven't updated their Steam entries for the new library change.

For fairness and brevity's sake I'll keep it only to the titles that are not Hidden for me on Steam. That's 25 titles in total.

The ones of those that don't have updated entries are:

Eversion - A small indie title from 2008 that I love, but has been ignored by the devs for far too many years. :(
Expendabros - A free demo of the game Broforce starring the main characters of the film "The Expendables 3". Worth a look if you haven't had enough Broforce already.
Lakeview Cabin Collection - A really cool 2D retro horror film 'simulator', but sadly the dev is too busy with his new title Lakeview Valley, which is his take on Stardew Valley.
Oknytt - Another favorite of mine that's been abandoned by the devs, except they ditched it seemingly right at the start. :(
Serious Sam Fusion 2017 - Yes, really. Serious Sam: Revolutions (the effort to update the original Serious Sam engine for modern systems) has their entry updated, but NOT the 'catch-all' entry for the entire franchie. BAD CROTEAM, BAD!!!
Yume Nikki - A freeware release now available on Steam, well worth your time if you fancy games with an emphasis on exploration (but stay away from the sequel/remake).

And last... but not least.

Primordia - MRY WTF?!? Is there an ass in your vicinity you can kick to fix this?

What is supposed to be done? And has it been done on other WEG games? I've honestly got no idea what the update is, or what it broke, or how to fix it.

You need to add a "DVD Format" Cover for it, so it doesn't appear like this in people's new Libraries:

And no, almost all other WEG games need to do it too.

Go to this page in the Steam backend, you will find the dimensions and templates there. It's not just one image you have to provide.

uh-oh. What we have here is a good old-fashioned Steam library waving contest!

On the count of three we all whip out our libraries and see who has the biggest one.

1.....2....

Joined the beta just to check it out and you're right: Steam.exe + webhelpers were taking 1gb, now the whole package is down to 200mb.

It's the actual funds that you've spent, external or not, not the standard "how much is my library worth" estimation. Last time I checked it, the numbers were correct. For example it doesn't take into account money from trading cards.

how, exactly, does it know how much you paid for a steam key, if you paid at all?
