It's unusable for drag. Drag's family all live in a different country. This change is transphobic.
as a trans person, can you not call everything that inconveniences you as a trans person transphobic? You're devaluing the actual struggles we have to face with "i can't play video game because of transphobia :(". Besides, there are ways to go around the region lock, just Google the "transphobia" away
No. Drag is sick to death of being so far away from drag's family. Drag is sick of a society that won't accept drag, and only being able to find partners through discord. Cishet people have it so easy, it's not fair. And along comes Steam, "A family is a group that lives in the same home". No! Get your heteronormative nuclear family bullshit out of drag's video games. Drag plays games to get away from patriarchal politics, and Steam goes shoving them into their new features and deprecating the old. They should have focus tested this change. Anyone in a long distance relationship could have told them this was a bad move. This move comes from Valve employees being brainwashed by society into seeing a family as what the white patriarchy says a family is. Drag has spent drag's entire life, as a gay person, being excluded from the white concept of family. We barely even have equal marriage rights. This is a symbolic issue of a lifelong struggle.
your discord role play friends are not your family
