Hey there, friends! I just shared my brother's Steam account with someone else, and now I can play his games. Here are my two questions: 1) If I’m playing one of his games, can he join another game too, or does he need to wait until I stop? 2) When I play his games on my own account, will the online stats be saved to his account or mine?

Access to a game library is exclusive. Only one user can use it at once, with the owner having first rights. Borrowing involves reserving games under your account, ensuring all details are saved there.

When you finish a game, your brother starts another one, and you stop automatically.

It seems unclear about the specifics. I’m uncertain if the approach would be strong enough, but it might trigger a notification when your brother tries to access his library. Would you like to try it yourself?

Sure, I'm ready to try it. He just left for a bit.
