What do you mean? Family sharing is a steam feature. All of your games are shared.

Not all, a number games (normally those using 3rd party lanchers such as uplay, or rockstar social) are not.

Developers/Publishers can disable it. Also, games with 3rd party launchers cannot be family shared

^ Not true at all. Publishers can opt out. There are plenty of games that don't allow sharing.
But to actually answer the question, yes, this game can be shared.

Most likely, but SFS is near useless for cohabiting families, assuming you want to share with someone not in you household.

In theory family sharing should be possible, but with Denuvo crippling the game performance, game experience and last but not least your SSDs? I doubt it. GeForce Now users already reported problems with the game simply for the fact GeForce Now service always gives them a different virtual hardware, but Denuvo limits them to 5 different launches a day. Family sharing is similar in that aspect of playing the game on different hardware, so you may soon run into similar issues. That is if Family sharing is possible at all in this game.

That's just stupid. I've been family sharing the game since release with absolutely no problems. Denuvo does not affect family sharing in any way.

If you are in Germany there is no family sharing but that is because they have a censored version, nothing to do with Denuvo.

Means, as I live in Germany, I can‘t family share the game from my other acc as I wanted to get it uncut? Thanks

Unfortunately yes, that's what that means to the best of my knowledge.

It's not really stupid. Denuvo limits 5 activations on different hardware per day which is why services such as GeForce Now have problems. If you tried to share the game with more than 5 family members in one day, assuming each of them would have their own pc, they may run into the same issue. If you didn't encounter this problem yourself, it only means you didn't meet the conditions where this issue could occur.

To be fair Valves of DRM restrictions and near useless implementation of its Sharing system will be causing you far more headache than denuvo.

That's not the only problem Denuvo introduces, but I don't feel like going through the whole list in every thread. Sorry, not today.
