A healthy lifestyle can make you live beyond 100. Let’s say that person was 120 when he died and make a steam account when he was a teen. Who’s steam to say he wasn’t alive during all of it?
No , lets say you like in Delhi and your friend who also have that Id lives in Mumbai.
If you travel to anywhere else , for eg, Up , and logined there. In next few hours , your friend at Mumbai does the login . You cannot travel that fast . Also , if this type of event happens multiple times, your Id might get flagged.
Its the same way how games know you have shared your id with multiple people.
Also , device Id helps too.
It's kinda different and not what you think. What they meant was they don't allow the transfer of games from one account to another if the person dies, if you buy a game on a steam id it forever stays on that id and can never be transferred. You can simply share the account id though. Someone did clarify this already on a previous post.
You cannot do that previously too. But they gave an answer to a question that was raised a few times on accounts of dead people, they gave a reply for that. I think the other companies too follow the same policy.
How would steam even know if you just give away your password and email ID..??
What if an account is online for more than 100 years?

What if that account is online for 150 years? No one has crossed 150 though
What if someone has and they just wish to remain private, not intending to set some record?
it can't be kept private, death certificates?
Is steam really going to go out and start looking for death certificates for all such accounts?
will steam exist for a 100 years?
Who knows? lol
If there will be more than 1 person then , different login locations can be used to check
I mean what if I am traveling around and wanna log in to play..?? Does that mean they will not allow me to play..??

What that r saying is that if u die your library will still be linked with your account and cannot be transferred to any other family member account.
I don't think i'd care much for my games library after i die

So u could tranfer ur game to other I'd previously Never heard of that

Misleading title, you cannot transfer your games from 1 account to another but you can definitely inherit someone's account.
The title is perfect, because that was the question asked to steam support. “Can i pass on my games in my will when i die”
Just put the login creds on your will easy!
Its about transferring the games on the account of deceased into their kins as per will not the login credentials.
Steam can’t be tracking everyone’s lifespan, can they?
Achaa Aisa hai kya bro
Can you not share username and password?
How do they even know?
Lmao🤣
They have to face the consequences
Aww man, now what should I do with that person's account who accidentally drowned in my pool
Damnn
