If you cannot pass on your ownership rights to your purchased games to your children, then you cannot pass on your copyright either, I guess?

I mean… They’re saying they can’t transfer games from one account to another right? But you could just put your account details in your will and anyone could login to your steam account and access your games, right?
Sure would be nice if they had the feature. But I’m not sure it’s such a big deal.
This is explicitly against their TOS. Whether or not you’ll be found out is a whole other matter
I suppose they would only find out when the account is still in use after 130 years.
Or if they cared to check payment details and such.
What if I’m planning to live for more than 130 years, then what? Fuck big corporations /s
Start following the blue zone life style friend!
I can’t be arsed to read the ToS again, but is it also forbidden to just share an account between several people?
My brother and I opened up that account six years ago and except for the times I forgot to turn my internet off to not be kicked out of games while my brother plays one we never had problems. It would be really shitty if we got into trouble for this because the account is valued somewhere between 1.500 and 4.300€ and is the most expensive thing I own except for my PC.
Also whether or not those TOS are legally enforceable in every single country Valve operates in.
They can. I buy and gift games to my son all the time.
Gifting is not the same as transferring an already bought game to another account. Can you do that?
It the same mechanism. They can do it, they just don’t want to.
