Changing chat name

#1 Post by Rydel »

How can I change what name appears in the in-game chat? The name being shown is from some profile associated with Steam, but it's not the account I use on the site. The account on the site does show my characters and achievements. The page associated with that profile name doesn't actually exist.

I'd rather not use chat with that name (or link it) since it is my actual, real life name.

Log in to your profile on the site and you can do it from there.

The username for my account there is correct, and the page for the name it is using doesn't exist.

To clarify:

The account name listed on the account that actually displays my characters is the name I want.
The account using my real life name is a dead page and I don't know how to log in to that account.

In the game, it lists my real name, and if I log out, the only option is "Log In with Steam" which logs in to that account, even though my Steam account is associated with my normal account

I would like the game to use my Rydel account name instead of my real life name, for privacy reasons.


EDIT: Alternately, is there a way to make it not broadcast when I get an achievement? I really don't want the game repeatedly putting my real name in the chat.
