Conina said: The old family share was pretty useless: if a family member played one of your games, the whole game library was blocked until he stopped playing. Now you can't play the SAME game at the same time with only one licence. But now person A can play game 1, and person B can play any other game of the library at the same time. Person C can play any game of the library, A + B aren't playing at the same time. Person D can play any game of the library, A + B + C aren't playing at the same time. Person E can play any game of the library, A + B + C + D aren't playing at the same time. |
That's still better than the original method you reminded me of. Now that means I can share games to my partner and see what they like before I buy another license.
Can't say I'm surprised at EA/Ubisoft pulling theirs out of sharing, since Ubi doesn't like us owning games, let alone licenses these days, and EA just doesn't care.
But seeing as how I haven't bought an EA game since 2016, and Ubisoft since Origins, I'm not as miffed that they opted out, since I don't buy from them these days, meaning the disappointment can never grow.
