Re: PlayStation Experience accessibility panel

Re: PlayStation Experience accessibility panel I might look into EA and that facility... but EA Vancouver doing mostly sports games doesn't hold much interest for me. but it's a start, I suppose. lolAs for the TTS, you're right about that. But again, why they coded it the way they did

Re: PlayStation Experience accessibility panel

Re: PlayStation Experience accessibility panel Heard back, as well as fullindie meetups there's also Vancouver Social Games, and VanVR.Also EA Vancouver have a solid user research / playtesting facility, I could drop them a line if being watched and questioned while playing would

Re: PlayStation Experience accessibility panel

Re: PlayStation Experience accessibility panel No worries, no patronization taken. lol And I figured they wouldn't be the ones to deal in fighting games, but it'll be something to look into. I'm not looking to make a life out of speaking at these things, but if I can even get my name out

Re: PlayStation Experience accessibility panel Simba I think rather than choosing only to do the US due to the US having a large population (although not the largest by a long way, India and China have many times higher population and many times more people who are blind), it was instead

Re: PlayStation Experience accessibility panel

Re: PlayStation Experience accessibility panel Ah sorry I hope I wasn't being patronising in that case!Most companies don't have their own conferences or conventions, it's only the big ones like Blizzard and PlayStation who do. Although Vancouver does have some general game development

Re: PlayStation Experience accessibility panel

Re: PlayStation Experience accessibility panel Ian, I knew the companies were here, just not the part about meetups... I would love to be able to speak at a Capcom or Namko conference, as honestly, being huge in the fighting game industry and action games in general, I would love

Re: PlayStation Experience accessibility panel

Re: PlayStation Experience accessibility panel Yes, exactly! You might be surprised about how big Vancouver's game development scene is! It is a huge games industry hub with everything from mobile indies to the biggest console publishers... some recognisable names include EA (the FIFA

Re: PlayStation Experience accessibility panel

Re: PlayStation Experience accessibility panel I live in Vancouver. We don't get any developer meetup groups here very often... but I get what you're saying. It just so happens the only people I can easily talk to are people who aren't involved at all about development or who don't care

Re: PlayStation Experience accessibility panel

Re: PlayStation Experience accessibility panel "I'm sure in the long term that's the eventual goal to have them work with it? so yes my question is really where does this realistically put us in terms of being able to play the titles right out of the box. without having to memorise m

Re: PlayStation Experience accessibility panel

Re: PlayStation Experience accessibility panel " I just wish there was something more direct we could do instead of just voicing our opinions on the forum and tweeting. "Just speak to people, go along to your local developer meet-up groups and ask for a speaking slot . Or even

Re: PlayStation Experience accessibility panel

Re: PlayStation Experience accessibility panel I was going to ask actually where this puts us in terms of game accessibility? I mean yes it's great that these consoles now have tts I'm not knocking that at all! but at the moment that's not enough for me to shed out the money to go buy one

Re: PlayStation Experience accessibility panel

Re: PlayStation Experience accessibility panel Keep in mind those are certain companies... all the big name ones like Capcom, Namko, EA... are probably not going to give much thought to that side of things or pay any attention from a group of people calling about and for accessibility

Re: PlayStation Experience accessibility panel

Re: PlayStation Experience accessibility panel Hi.This video is really awesome... I don't have any hope left regarding to the TTS function on the ps4, but it's really great that game developers is a part of the panel also. My point is: Why should accessibility on a console matter

Re: PlayStation Experience accessibility panel

Re: PlayStation Experience accessibility panel I'm hoping. lol And I shouldn't sound bitter... I just wish they coded the original base better for the tts. If they weren't going to update it often, they should've coded it to at least be dynamic. hahaha. But let's see what the coming year

Re: PlayStation Experience accessibility panel

Re: PlayStation Experience accessibility panel They do! They've been doing updates for vision, but enhancements for low vision rather than no vision. Their most recent update upgraded the large font functionality. I own a hat, lets have this conversation again this time next year

Re: PlayStation Experience accessibility panel

Re: PlayStation Experience accessibility panel This may sound a little selfish, but other accessibility enhancements, as nice as they are, don't do much for the vision end as they seem to be focused on everything except tts. As for the accessibility statements, so far, microsoft has

Re: PlayStation Experience accessibility panel

Re: PlayStation Experience accessibility panel Also it's worth mentioning that accessibility is a broad church, there are some areas that they're leading on, in both games and consoles. What you can take from this is a very strong statement of intent, this year we've now had not only Shawn

Re: PlayStation Experience accessibility panel

Re: PlayStation Experience accessibility panel I don't have time to watch the entire video right now, but that sounds awesome. But honestly, from the first 5 minutes or so, if sony really wants to lead in this area as they say, then they need to catch up to microsoft.. who are way ahead. I
