Steam Family Share

[Nategore]

Title says it all. Is Steam Family Share enabled? Will it be enabled in the future? Me and my girlfriend wanna try it out but don't wanna fork over 30 euros each for a game we might not even be able to play.

If I am not mistaken if you family share you can't play it as well.

In other words if you have PacMan and Doom, and you share this with your gf, and she's playing Doom, you can no longer access neither PacMan nor Doom while your account is in use.. Am I right on this?

For sure you can't family share Doom and both play (there are the new co-op titles though that Steam is allowing you to free invite a friend)

We won't be trying it out at the same time, I wanna try it and see if it works on my system then she tries it. If it works, we see if we like the game and go on, and if not, well, we'd ask for a refund.

What I'm asking is if it is even possible to Family Share the game.

It is possible, yes. Or at the very least the game is downloadable, haven't turned it on on the second PC yet.

Yes you can share this game but only one person can play

Yeah, it works just fine.
