Last year, they all came crawlin' back to Steam, and this year was another strong one for Valve.

From the opinion piece:

Last year, I pointed out how many big publishers came crawlin’ back to Steam after trying their own things: EA, Activision, Microsoft. This year, for the first time ever, two Blizzard games released on Steam: Overwatch and Diablo 4.

    You can’t sell or transfer accounts, and upon the death of the owner of each account, the account will be closed and licenses to games revoked. So yes, effectively, they will have accounts with a general “time limit” for existing

    How does that work with the family share games option in the Steam client?

    If they’re playing a shared game does it just disappear on them all of a sudden?

      I’m guessing it disappears. Is it possible to family share a game and then get a refund / remove it from your library? I’m guessing whatever happens in that case is the same thing that would happen here.
