Re: Mainstream accessibility predictions

Re: Mainstream accessibility predictions @20 there's one you can try already, sa11ytaire. It's only solitaire so not exactly the most exciting game but it's a hugely important landmark, and playing that it's easy to see how something like Hearthstone could work. URL: https

Re: Mainstream accessibility predictions

Re: Mainstream accessibility predictions Hello everyone, karate25 here again with a few predictions of my own. While I'm not a good gauge for giving time frames as far as the number of years for something to occur, I do completely agree with Ian and for one can hardly wait for things

Re: Mainstream accessibility predictions

Re: Mainstream accessibility predictions Hi,Hawd mode is a separate mode from the story. You take on waves of enemies, I think it's up to 50, either alone or with friends. The ping only works for the fabricator object, which is used to collect power and then build thigns such as centries

Re: Mainstream accessibility predictions

Re: Mainstream accessibility predictions Hi.@Arron: What is the hord mode in Gears of War 4? Does the ping feature work in the story mode as well? That would be amazing. URL: https://forum.audiogames.net/post/412064/#p412064 -- Audiogames-reflector mailing list Audiogames-reflector

Re: Mainstream accessibility predictions

Re: Mainstream accessibility predictions @14 I would dearly love to see Hearthstone above nearly all other games be blind accessible. Interface based game demonstrating proof of concept in the context of an online multiplayer game with potential already clearly demonstrated by diceworld

Re: Mainstream accessibility predictions

Re: Mainstream accessibility predictions I like to picture ian laughing to himself, knowing about something coming down the pipeline  but is unable to speak about it at the moment. Wishful thinking, I suppose. Heh.I predict the following: 1. An Assassin’s Creed game will be fully

Re: Mainstream accessibility predictions At this moment in time, (it'll never happen,) but I would love speaking menues in diablo 3. If gear and abilites could be read aloud, that game would be 100% playable. URL: https://forum.audiogames.net/post/411963/#p411963 -- Audiogames

Re: Mainstream accessibility predictions

Re: Mainstream accessibility predictions Hearthstone, MTG, Gwent, Eternal. Those are the games I'd love accessibility for. They're all text anyway and if they were made accessible I'd be thrilled. URL: https://forum.audiogames.net/post/411906/#p411906 -- Audiogames-reflector mailing

Re: Mainstream accessibility predictions

Re: Mainstream accessibility predictions I'd love the Switch to have some form of tts in the future.As for actual games, if mk or killer instinct, or any more fighting games for that matter, get accessibility, then I'd be happy. Another game series I'd love to see accessible menus

Re: Mainstream accessibility predictions

Re: Mainstream accessibility predictions If mk or killer instinct get accessibility this year, then I'd be happy. Another game series I'd love to see accessible menus/dialogues for, would be the Rock Band series because right now, World Tour isn't really playable. If Jump Force and DBFZ

Re: Mainstream accessibility predictions

Re: Mainstream accessibility predictions I think I don't care.No one's making the kinds of games I want to play, other than Japanese companies, and it's mostly American companies that are working on accessibility. Maybe European studios, too; I'm not as familiar with those, since Japan

Re: Mainstream accessibility predictions

Re: Mainstream accessibility predictions I think I'd like to see accessibility put into games like city builders and farming simulator. Farming simulator more than the city builders for now honestly because I've always wanted to see an accessible farming game. I think city builders

Re: Mainstream accessibility predictions

Re: Mainstream accessibility predictions @8, I highly doubt it. They had more than three years to work on the tts problem since introducing it, and still nothing has happened. I love Sony's consoles for the list of games available, but wouldn't bet on accessibility improvements any time

Re: Mainstream accessibility predictions

Re: Mainstream accessibility predictions There's some issues with the Division 2's implementation, however. Some dialogs won't read, E.G. when you want to save setting and/or are otherwise asked a question with a yes or no prompt. The yes/no reads but the actual prompt does not, whereas

Re: Mainstream accessibility predictions

Re: Mainstream accessibility predictions For what it's worth text to speech doesn't have to use platform level functionality, the division 2 uses its own internal TTS implemented once across all platforms. Some devs even put their own text to speech in during development as placeholder

Re: Mainstream accessibility predictions

Re: Mainstream accessibility predictions

Re: Mainstream accessibility predictions I think I agree with Orin on this one. Granted, most of us would just prefer they implement accessibility on the one system they can, but that would entail designing the games diferently for each console and I doubt most companies will want to take

Re: Mainstream accessibility predictions

Re: Mainstream accessibility predictions Yes, I know, I've said this in various places about 543000 times in the last six months. But my stance hasn't exactly changed lol. I really, really want some way of playing civ. It doesn't even have to be 2k games that fully makes civ VI playable

Re: Mainstream accessibility predictions

Re: Mainstream accessibility predictions Well, my first want would be, since MKX implemented audio queues for interactibles, the next step would be the menus talking.Unfortunately, I don't see MK 11 or Madden 20 implementing menu accessibility this year. The chief issue right now being
