It's way better than the old library sharing. Up to 6 people can pool their libraries and they can all play at the same time unless there aren't enough collective copies of a game.

Woah forreal?

I did some sharing with my brother a few years ago and I had to set my steam to offline for it to work if I'm playing a game at the same time

Didn't like having to do that since offline steam doesn't track ingame hours (it resets to previous number once you go online).

I'm by far the biggest contributor to this shared library and I've still got damn near 900 new games to play.

Assuming the family has 2 total copies of Tekken 8, yes.

If you have 2 friends that each have Tekken 8 in their library, neither of you need to own it.
