[Steam] Notification for Games Owned by Family Members After Setting Up Steam Family
My co-manager, Luca-chan, and I decided to set up a Steam Family group and buy games that neither of us owned to expand our libraries. I figured not many people might be using Steam Family, so I'm leaving this review for those who are curious. I briefly wondered if I needed to discuss purchases before buying games... but there's absolutely no need for that. ㅋㅋ When you go to the game's detail page to purchase it, it shows you if a family member already owns the game. That's Steam for you. Also, if another family member is playing a game from their library, it notifies you before you launch it that 'A family member is currently playing,' which prevents you from accidentally launching the same game and causing them to be kicked out. I guess this is one of the reasons Steam is the world's number 1 gaming platform. It might be one of the reasons Epic Games can't catch up to Steam. With hundreds of games, the chance of playing the same game is slim... unless it's a new popular title, of course. It's helpful in many ways, so I highly recommend trying it out with your friends.

If I use Steam Family Sharing, do I have to buy the game twice to play together?
