Re: Thoughts on Fifa20
Again. you're missing the point that it's all based on priorities. I suspect very little is budgeted for accessibility let alone blindness accessibility.
There are really two ways to get changes. Legislation, and crowd size.
As long as there are only a few hundred blind gamers, things will run a slow as a snail riding on a turtle. The CVA probably was our best friend in all of this as this is what has really forced companies to be trying to make changes. Sadly a lot of those changes are to meet the demands of the law and not for an altruistic purpose. EA has seemed interested in making changes, but the fact remains that we are a tiny tiny minority. I mean. I can't even begin to put in to words how small of a minority we are. So if we're going to want to see changes, for now we're going to have to wait on a yearly basis.
Want to see changes quicker?
1. Get more blind gamers. A million should do the trick.
2. Lobby congress for sweeping legislation. and then of course wait 10 years for the gaming industry to push for waivers and then don't expect to see changes until the waivers run out. That's what happened in this case.
I don't blame anyone. It's just the way of things. We have two people on the forum from EA who are soliciting feedback. they then have to go to their bosses to try to advocate for us. but like it or not, at the end of the day it all comes down to money. I haven't sat in on any meetings, but I've talked to enough people in the industry to know that what is considered are the size of the market, and the cost of the feature.
