Is this illegal?

Interesting. Why did I even bother to get separate accounts (steam, not steamgifts!) for all the family members?

I'm more curious/worried about how Steam will handle third party DRM games.

Sure, they mention this in their FAQ, but I wonder how they'll treat such situations. I mean, if their third party DRM "detection" system were that good, the store pages would be more accurate with this information, wouldn't it? Well, the only way I can see this happening is: game has a "CD-Key" option? Don't share. Otherwise, share.

I most certainly wouldn't want to be denied access to my own games, because my borrowers accidentally used my CD-Key or whatever.

I wish they had this last year when my brother had Oblivion and I didn't... But oh well, now, I don't have to sign him in on his computer to play my games, I can just let him play when I want him too. And then he won't give me achievements I didn't want... Or start talking to my friends...

Curious about what they do about the part with region restriction when it's about cut/uncut games. But I doubt that I get a straight answer in their FAQ thread :/

andrea since you will be my future wife , share your steam with me . mail me your ID and pass

Nice! This is great

So basically one user can only be on the account, well thats useless for me since I just hand out my User/Pass to friends and family....

Cool for others I suppose.

Useless for most people it seems.

Sounds dam good!

I find the idea very appealing! But man, there are some entitled, whiny brats in those threads. They genuinely can't see why they can't freely share their games as much as they want.

Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeel yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaahhhhh.

Meh, faq says that it's only 1 person per shared library. This means I can't share My other 642 games while I'm playing or 1 of the lenders are playing a different game. Useless unless the lender is on the other side of the globe where timezones vary alot. He can only play while I'm at school or sleeping

And then the invites are gonna be sold on the Market and valve makes a shitton of money.

Thanks for skyrim. Literally. I can now play my bro's skyrim and rome total war 2. Except he's usually on at the same time as me... I hope he switches to nights soon...

Only usefull thing i see is if you are at a friends house and you want to play a game you own without using your account to login or to let a friend try the game on a more complete "Demo".

Awful. If they don't add Library trading, then don't do anything else. This is a stupid idea.

Can we remove people from our family share plan and add other people? Like if I have someone who I am no longer friends with on my family share plan, can I remove them and add someone else?
Or are we just screwed at that point?

I asked in the FAQ but people are too busy asking the same question over and over that the FAQ already answered. "CAN I PLAY A GAME IF IT'S A DIFFERENT GAMEE FROM THE OTHER PERSON?!?!?!"

I'll be so pissed if my brother doesn't let me share.

:I

ITS HAPPENING!!!!!!!!!

I can see this crashing into the ground and dying in a hot fire.

I had to double check I was at the real Steam site and not some phishing site...

Unbelievable... Steam is just... unbelievable...

How can they do this? How do they profit from this?

As long as it helps, it will be welcomed.

I just hope they work hard to tap any sort of holes that could be exploited.

How are steamgifts going to police people making multiple accounts with a few bundle games so they can abuse this feature?
