This is annoying as we buy everything under my wifes account and we hook up mine with family sharing.

Same but under mine, we are starting to split who buys a bit more now since our kids want to play different games at the same time. Time to start spreading them across 4 accounts soon

IIRC, they are in beta testing to allow multiple people play multiple games from same account at same time, and you can now buy multiple licenses for your account so can both play same game at same time on same account . Don't ask me the specifics, I only know that I can buy multiple licenses for my account currently.

Do you have your wife's password?

[-] HubertManne@kbin.social 1 points 5 months ago

No. I realize its an option but its sorta creepy to me. Its like opening the other persons mail.

You can access her Steam anyway through account sharing. If she has a unique Steam password I don't see the difference.

My wife and I know how to access each other's e-mail. We've never done it, but if anything happens to me she can access and pay the bills that come in. If nothing else I'd recommend something in your will or an "open if I die" envelope with your passwords in it.
