Exophase is not tracking all Epic games

Hey Everyone.

I was checking the other day and noted that several games I have in that platform aren't tracked by Exophase.

From what I could see in my collection only 9 games have achievements and only those are being tracked, when I have almost 300 games in Epic.

This called my attention as I noted that in other platforms games without achievements are tracked and time played is showed, but this is not true for Epic.

I use Playnite with Legendary at home to manage this library, and I saw that legendary is able to collect gaming hours for all games, not only the ones with achievements.

Is this due to a limitation in Epic or something on how Exophase tracks?

Cheers
 
Yes, it's a limitation of Epic. We only have access to the same data shown on Epic's profiles pages, and there they don't display the hours played either. For example: https://store.epicgames.com/u/edd4caa8d91744de8bd1282d9bbf8e71?lang=en-US

On those pages they also only show games with achievements. I am guessing Playnite reads in data from the Epic launcher installed on your PC. But we don't have that same level of access since this is a web app and of course can't read files that are on your local machine.

The only way we could access full library and hours played information is if Epic exposes that data in the future. Right now, it only appears to be visible when logged into the desktop client.
