No matter where you download it, the license is for a single individual to use the content for their own, personal use. It is never intended to allow multiple people to play the content paid for by a single user. If you do so, you are violating the license agreement for Pinball Arcade.
Yes, sorry about that. I wrote in anger, and I should not have done that. I wrote this one politely and calmly.
I'm hoping for a reasonable explanation that makes sense.
This is not quite true. People just download it and play it. They don't do anything to cheat. They don't do anything special. It is simply available on each family member's side. They are not violating anything.
Thanks for your attempt at an explanation. I do appreciate it. But you see, the facts speak for themselves. Every family member can play it on any machine except Steam. Yesterday I deleted it from my side, and suddenly it was deleted from the whole computer, demonstrating that there was only one Pinball Arcade on the computer, not separate games for each separate member of the family. I hope you understand this view.
Thanks so much A51AN3L1TE! Your understanding is a great comfort to me.
From now on, I'm just playing the Pinball Arcade on any other game machine, and *not* on Steam. I suggest that everyone else does the same.
Case in point: A family of eight crowding around the Wii is commonplace for many families, but you'd never see a mother and father and their two kids huddled around the PC, playing some Skyrim. This just doesn't happen, ever. Which would stand to reason that a family sharing system shouldn't exist. And even farther than this, what defines a family?
There are many legal and financial nuances that stop such a system from existing. Look at what happened when PS3 allowed family sharing between 6(not sure of the number) people, and you'll see what I mean.
I and my granddaughter were playing two-player pinball games on her account, but my high scores were going to the leaderboard as *her* high scores. This was unacceptable to both of us. She wanted to keep her own high scores.
We are sharing all her other games, about twelve of them altogether. I play them on my side, and keep my own achievements, my own experiences, my own player characters, and she plays the games on her side.
Of course not! Skyrim is a one-player game. We don't play the same game at the same time. That's not what I'm asking about.
On the contrary - it does exist on Steam, and on many other game playing machines, and we are sharing all our games except Pinball Arcade on Steam!
Blood relatives.
Perhaps you're talking about something other than family sharing. Members of my family are sharing many games on Steam, Vita, Xbox 360 and Xbox One. It's only in Pinball Arcade that the Steam staff appear to be causing a problem.
You seem to be worried about the high scoring system of one game in particular. Herein, I am unsure of how this affects Steam family sharing as a whole.
Additionally,
a family, as defined in legal terms and in relation to gaming, is quite far removed from blood-relatives. You may have felt a bit clever in making this remark, but I am going to assure you that you were not.
Steam is not Xbox Live or Playstation Network, services of which offer the family sharing of which you speak. Steam is different. Steam is its own service entirely. If you feel compelled to so write this complaint, perhaps you would feel even more so to post it to Steam via the Steam contact page.
And as another user has pointed out, this is the third post you have made on this issue. If you have not yet seen or heard a reply, perhaps, as I stated, your best bet would be to file an issue with Steam. No one here can do anything to help you, and if you are only finding this problem in this one game, then I would hope you would avoid using rhetoric which makes it seem like all of Steam is having this issue. It isn't.
No, I'm worried about why the family sharing system applies to all other games except Pinball Arcade, and why they want us to pay them again and again for the one game.
Quite so! Perhaps you should study "family sharing" as explained by Steam in their notes.
My degree of cleverness is not the issue here. Have you heard of the fallacy "ad hominem"?
Ah! At last you recognise that no-one else makes people pay for a game they've already bought.
Quite so! So perhaps they should be as fair as the others.
Well, it's not so much a complaint, it's more of a request for information about why Steam makes everyone pay more than once for the same game. Fortunately they don't do it in any other game.
Yes, I was hoping to ask the question civilly, this time, and I've done so. I felt it might get a more civil response. And mostly, it has.
I tried to get the page to do that and I was redirected back here, to the forum, unfortunately.
Really? Do they not charge repeatedly for Pinball Arcade when it's already been paid for? Then why are they doing it to me?
http://www.pinballarcade.com/EULA/
The only difference between Steam and console is that the console does not have DRM to prevent this behavior. It was never allowed, whether you able to do so or not.
(And of course, I won't be buying any other Steam games in case they have other "rules" that apply to those games. Funny how this "rule" attempts to force people to pay again for a game they've already bought, isn't it!)
This is not a Steam issue. It's not even a PC versus console issue. All games are licensed and have EULAs, no matter where you buy or play them.
No-one there knows why each member of my family should pay again and again for the four seasons of TPA.
