Re: Monthly chat September 2017
Audiogames.net appears to be loosing its focus, if it ever had one.
I had always thought that this sight was supposed to be about games that are accessible to the blind or visually impaired, but lately I've seen lots of threads hear about how to play games not designed for the visually impaired.
I have nothing against these games, I just don't believe they belong on a site that supposed to be all about audio games. It's very annoying to hear about a game that sounds like it might be something I might be interested in only to find out that it's an Xbox or PS4 game and that the only way to play it is to memorise the menu system and then try to hear very subtle audio cues to know when to push this button or that other one. That's not something I'm looking for.
And then there's the question of Steam. Valve has been completely unresponsive to the idea of making Steam accessible and that alone I think is reason enough to say that game s that are only available through the Steam platform also do not belong here.
But if the owners and members have decided to allow this inaccessible content on the site, I would ask that they create a separate section for them so that those of us not interested in this inaccessible material can easily avoid it.
Otherwise, as time goes by, we're going to find that audiogames.net is more about games that are playable by the visually impaired and less about games that are accessible.
