New World family sharing suddenly stopped being accessible?
Recently I logged into my Steam account, only to find that New World that was 'family shared' with me stopped being available for play.
I know for a fact that no one is playing that game on the original account (my brother hasn't been playing).
Before the 'Purchase' option appeared, I had been playing the game on my account without any issues whatsoever. I've tried some of the suggested actions, such as re-authorizing the account, checking files integrity, resetting Winsock...
Does anyone have any idea on how to fix this/what might have caused this issue?
Update: Amazon has announced a fix!
