How to opt out of Unity Analytics in Last Epoch

How to opt out of Unity Analytics in Last Epoch

Hey, wanna take control and skip Unity Analytics for Last Epoch? Sadly, the game doesn’t let you opt out directly in-game. But don’t sweat it! You’ll need to tweak a config file manually. Grab your nerd glasses (just kidding, but helpful) and follow along.

What You Need:
– A bit of know-how on using text editors
– Skills to set a file as read-only
– And maybe your tinfoil hat, for the extra cautious

Finding That Sneaky Config File:

1. Windows gang, head over to this spot on your computer:
AppData\LocalLow\Eleventh Hour Games\Last Epoch\Unity\c9db3951-d6c2-4a6a-8944-d38c41d27d88\Analytics
Just copy that line and paste it into your Windows search bar to get there in a jiffy.
%AppData%\..\LocalLow\Eleventh Hour Games\Last Epoch\Unity\c9db3951-d6c2-4a6a-8944-d38c41d27d88\Analytics
2. Linux buddies, your file is chilling at ~/.config/unity3d/Eleventh Hour Games/
3. Hit a snag? Type “%AppData%” in the search bar, backtrack one folder, and you’re on your way.

Tinkering With the Config File:

1. Found the Analytics folder? Great! Open the “config” file with your favorite text editor.
2. Copy and slap this code into the config file:

{
"analytics": {
"enabled": false
},
"connect": {
"enabled": false,
"limit_user_tracking": true,
"player_opted_out": true
},
"dynamic": {
"analytics": {
"shouldCollectAutomation": false,
"timeToWaitForUserInfoS": 60
},
"coreBusinessMetrics": {
"enabled": false,
"timeToWaitForUserInfoS": 60
}
},
"performance": {
"enabled": false
}
}

3. Save that bad boy and lock it down as read-only.

Getting Rid of Old Spy Stuff:

Want to delete old analytical data? Easy peasy.
1. Find the “ArchivedEvents” folder right where the config file lives.
2. Zap all the files in there to digital oblivion.

Keeping More Snoopers at Bay:

To block extra analytics from Unity, add these domains to your host file. Heads up, these aren’t from Last Epoch but are known data hounds in other games.

Stopping UnityCrashHandler64.exe:

Don’t want “UnityCrashHandler64.exe” phoning home? Block it in your firewall or rename it to something like “UnityCrashHandler64.exe.bak“. Just know, that game updates might bring it back. You’ll find it in the game’s folder, typically here:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Last Epoch

And there you have it! Follow these steps, and you’ll keep your gaming data just a bit more under wraps.
