You can't play family shared games while owner is playing something from their library. And some games don't support family sharing.

Everything else is exactly the same as if you bought the game.

Family Sharing is not random Steam friend sharing.

The fact your account has a VAC ban will make things tough for you. No one will share their library and risk their account getting banned as well.

Game that required or has online feature can't be played simultaneously. When the original owner logged in, the shared person will automatically got kicked out. For an example, monster hunter world. Offline game will not be a problem though.

you dont have to explain yourself dude. vac isn't perfect and you're not on trial. vac ban very common these days due to false positives, so most guys have no issue with sharing (but you sharing between your own accounts so no problem anyway lol)

That's why you made the other 2 threads asking about that.

That would end up both account with the same ban and same day of ban, and since this account is VAC banned and other is game banned, you just have been banned more than two times.

No ya i know, i honestly dont know because i checked the day i was banned in shock and they both said vac banned but my main account said by linked phone number or something, then today after messaging steam about this i went back into csgo after a few hours and it said global cooldown, i really dont understand this

Just one more thing.
If you're family sharing from account A to account B and get VAC ban on account B, you'll also get VAC ban on account A.
And you can't family share games from which you were VAC banned.
