How is it different from the beta one that we already had? I looked today and I'm still in the beta one and there is no other option to the actual one!
This is the same as the beta version, but is distinctly different from what we used to have. Previously playing a shared game locked down the entire library, now it just locks the one copy of the game. Previously you had to sign in on the same device to make it happen, now you can invite into the family remotely. Previously you could switch people in and out easily, now there's a six person limit on the family and a one year cooldown on both the slot and the member who chooses to leave a family.
Overall it's better as long as you didn't abuse the system before.
This might be a dumb question, but can you share non steam games that are in your library?
There's no mechanism by which that could work.
Yes I know. The question was answered hours before you replied.
