Hi,
Please, Jason I'm not mentioning you, i'm mentioning sighted game developers
that which make games. So in short, this message that you are reading, has
nothing to do with you. Sighted developers that which develop sited games,
they are dumb. They go like, blind people can't read or right, they can't
use a computer, and they can't play games. For instants, I had a friend
called Nella. we were in year 4 or 3 if i'm not wrong and she really wanted
me to play games. Its just some of the people that which are in the 1805
modes, lol!
Such as when I was reading an article ages ago probably at January but I
can't remember, A game developer has bin sued. I can't remember if it was
from pin interactive, but It happened in America for sure. This guy thanked
the developer, because of the graphics. But blind people were righting to
him to make it a bit blind related game, but the developer didn't listen,
and he got edventually sued.

Hi Darren,
Exactly. I read a gaming article a year or so ago that pretty much
boiled down to the same thing. The game industry are targeting young
kids with little to know imagination so they put all of the effort
into cool sounds and graphics and totally skip the part that a game is
suppose to have an engaging and interesting story line. In a nutshell
what the article said was that todays video games are being dummed
down for people with little imagination, and adding lots of flashy
graphics and sounds to make up for their total lack of quality
content.
However, that doesn't explain their attitudes over on Game Spot. I
think what it boils down to is their total inexperience with blind
computer users in general. They have grown up with this ignorant
assumption that blind people can't play games, can't use computers, we
all use braille, count steps, and whatever else the general sighted
public thinks of us. It is the kind of attitudes we can't really get
rid of until there more of us in the public eye, and unfortunately the
ones that will get the most attention is those of us whom we'd rather
not be seen or heard. I think you know what I mean.
Cheers!

Yes but that's the point, a lot of games these days are designed for kids
with little to no imaginations. That's why they concentrate on graphics
only
and not the real content itself.
