The ps5 game share option is as old and pointless as the ps4 version. Families with multiple consoles and multiple children aka "gamer families" want simple and fully featured family accounts. Once again Sony has failed miserably at delivering. One family account with all family members added sharing all content any member buys with each other at the same time on any console the member is logged into. No need for primary systems anymore. Scratch it! One price for PS plus for the entire family enjoyed on any console the family member is logged in. Allow all members to play the same digital games all at once with each other or all at once with whoever else. Clearly to keep abuse under control the family members should be limited to 5 or 6. Perhaps a premium price for the plus for families? Maybe $10 more a year? No family wants game sharing. Sorry not even close. I want to have my own wallet and control it and the sub accounts aka minor kids but I wanna add my mom who lives here too as an adult account and she can control her own wallet and bam anything I buy she can access and vice versa. Of course content can still be limited for kids via parental controls. This means a link of the subs to one or more possibly, adult family member who makes the parental control decisions for the fam. This is the way digital content is leaning. For example Apple Arcade family plan except allowing ALL adult members their own wallet and purchase ability. We dont wanna pay for plus 3 times in our house its outrageous and thats even after playing the set kids system as system primary game. Sony simplify and reward families with real family accounts. Also psnow family account one fair fee everyone on every console in the family gets to play all at once or otherwise. Families hold back on spending on consoles, games and dlc because they cant share with everyone and wont all buy 4 copies of the games etc.. Ps5 game share is not it.
