I have downloaded the game 'Assassin's Creed Valhalla' as 'one week free play'. After one week I was not able to play it. Now I bought PS Plus subscription and this game is in its catalogue and I can play it for free. But I don't want to download it again and I want to play with already downloaded game.
Can I do that?

You will not have to buy a game again. The games you purchase are recorded to your account history and can be downloaded again, provided the game is still available for download in the future.

No, you cannot change your gender or class on a NG+. The only customization options are the face and the bonus power (Any 1 power you've unlocked). Your credits, reputation, unlocked weapons, armor, weapon upgrades and weapon mods transfer over, as well as collectibles like fish and the hamster, through some weapon mods may be downgraded 1 level. Your choices from ME1 and 2 will also remain. Picking up weapons you already have will upgrade them 3 levels.

Your TV is overscanning the image. A lot of cheap TVs do that and hopefully there's an option to turn it off in the menu settings, but it is very likely that there is nothing you can do about it.

From my own experience, yes you can. As long as the person doesn't actually launch any games they can download all they want. If you want some more info regarding what exactly else you can and cannot do. I recommend checking out the following links https://support.steampowered.com/kb_article.php?ref=3784-QLBM-5731 http://store.steampowered.com/promotion/familysharing

I believe you unlock that research when you create 10-12 custom game engines. Here is a similar question with more information about them.

All of the "demo DLC" in KoA gets obsolete pretty quick. The Omniblade daggers and the N7 armor (which is Might-focused, I believe) isn't all that exciting. It rather quickly ended up in my stash and stayed there through most of the game. You can also unlock the N7 armor by inputting the KoA Online Pass, which makes playing the ME3 demo to unlock it somewhat redundant. On the whole, I'd say it isn't worth it unless you haven't gotten very far in KoA - if you're past the first town, you've probably found better equipment from chests or random drops.

You can try with a hard reset The process to hard-reset PS4 controller is way too easy. All You need is first turn off your console. The Reset button is located in a tiny hole at the back of the controller near the L2 button. Using a paperclip, press and hold the Reset button for a few seconds. This should be enough to reset your controller. The next step is to once again pair your controller with your device. Simply connect the controller using the USB cable provided and then turn on your PS4 and proceed with the pairing procedure. If the connection fails, it’s because the controller is not detected by the console. This might be due to the respective USB cable. The PS4 controllers are somewhat peculiar here. It’s best to use an original Sony Micro USB cable. If you do not have one, you should try different Micro USB cables. Now, press the PlayStation button on the controller to log into the PS4. The light bar should turn blue indicating the DualShock 4 has paired with the console.

By default it is L3 (push the left joystick into the controller, yes, push it down). I think this is very annoying personally as I would constantly accidentally activate it in the minigame days so I would suggest changing it and maybe making L3 a sprint button or just disabling it outright, just preference. Pressing this button will cycle you through 3 POVs, so just keep pressing it until you get it how he likes it (first person in this case). If this button doesn't work go to Settings > Controller and see what it says it is set to and change it if wanted. If it is unbound (not set to anything) set it to something.

I would guess the best way to take a good picture would be to use the Replay mode So go in a game, and place yourself how you want to be seen in your photo. Then complete that game (killing yourself is fine) Then load the game in the Replay mode, and that should give you the possibility to enter freecam mode. Where you can put the camera whereever you want. So that should give you the possibility to take any shot you want, without having to fuss around to figure how to get the shot in the middle of a game where you get shot.

USB headsets should work with PS4s using one of the USB ports, according to IGN: http://www.ign.com/wikis/playstation-4/Headset However, I have seen one or two single 3.5mm to USB adapters. I don't know if those will work with the PS4 controllers, but the worst case scenario is to either buy a new headset, or to just plug your USB headset into the console (which will save you money).

You can copy the game files from one computer to the other across your local network. If you use an Ethernet cable, this will probably be faster than downloading from steam. Identify the game folder on your PC and then copy them over to the laptop, then verify the game files via the steam client on the laptop. See (for instance): https://support.steampowered.com/kb_article.php?ref=7418-YUBN-8129 "Move" in the above link is another way of saying copy and delete. Just don't delete the files in the source folder. Note that windows 7 has a command line tool called "robocopy" which can be set to mirror files (aka "sync folders"). With a little creativity, it can be set to mirror a game folder between computers, provided these folders do not have computer-specific config data stored within them.

As others have already mentioned, you can begin playing a downloaded title once a certain chunk has downloaded. Typically, this will be the first "stage" of the single player game. This feature has been around for a while, possibly since launch but I believe the UI change is newer. Here's a Reddit post on the Play As You Download fetaure. EDIT: From memory, the playable section of MGSV is limited to the prologue.

If you download a game on your PS4, you download the same version of the game no matter what account you use, and the game is downloaded to the system. So if you already have the game downloaded, you can play it using any PSN account that has a license to play the game and don't have to download it again when switching accounts. Note that it's possible, depending on how you have your PS4 configured, that your progress you made on your friend's account won't carry over to your account. It depends on how the game manages progress and whether the progress is device bound, account bound or both.

Unfortunately no, you will have to install them separately unless you've bought the unlimited or the ultimate edition of the game, in this case it comes with the edition of the game. Further more, if you downloaded the standard edition of the game, DLC's will come with a price as in The Sims 4 for example, DLC's are at a 10% discount - so watch out for this. Always look for the complete package, deluxe, ultimate or unlimited.
