    Has the Steam Family update launched yet? The one that lifted the limitation on playing different games from the same account at the same time. I feel like last I saw it was in beta.

    Was also wondering if anyone has a good sense on how they’re policing Family Libraries. Does it work to share with close friends or am I going to want to be sure I’m sharing only with household members?

      You can opt into the Family Sharing beta and get the features. You can only join one family per year so choose wisely as they say.

        Okay good to know. I’ll be using it to try to entice a few friends at least half way away from their Playstations to Steam Decks.

      I’m in the beta with my wife and cousin. It works great so far. I was able to try out dragons dogma 2 from the cousins account, remember why I hated dd1, and promptly un-installed it.

        Ha I actually thought I liked DD1 after I played it for about 45 minutes. But that was years ago and I haven’t touched it again soo

      The one that lifted the limitation on playing different games from the same account at the same time.

      That should never have been a limitation in the first place. If I have two games installed outside of Steam there’s nothing stopping me from playing both at the same time, so WTF does Valve think ever justified it?

        Agreed it was a chincy restriction. I’m glad they’re righting that with the new Family Sharing.
