Is there a way to know where your Steam XP increase is from?

[peteurpola]

In my case at the start of last week I think I was missing 457 XP from the next level but today it is 455 XP. I haven't added any new games and I assume it is one of those limited profile games that has met the Steam criteria to be counted as an actual game, but is it possible to know where those 1 point increases are from? I mean to know from exactly what games?

I'm not currently aware of any website that would track such things.

But, OF COURSE, I don't know every website out there. Not by a long shot.

If the games that now count had Steam trading cards, you would probably have gotten alerted about new inventory items as your previous playtime could have qualified you for your free card drops. If it hadn't, they would show up on your badge page as still having free drops available.

Hello,

Did you receive any awards on a recent post? I think that awards give a small amount of XP but I don't know how much

Community awards are 10xp per award given or received. His xp total only changed by 2, which is most likely an adjustment to his Game Collector badge because some game he owns now counts towards profile stats.

The experience from Contributor/Patron drops from ten-per to one-per at a threshold, IIRC, so depending on their circumstances awards could result in two additional points.

I believe this is the reason.

OP was given two post awards recently.

Thank you I think that is it. I checked and apparently I have more than a 100 of those awards and I think it is 10xp for the first 100 and after that 1xp for every award. Thanks for the help everyone!
