Hi Damien, Yeah, skill has something to do with it but experience and memory is the key. As plenty of people know by now I absolutely love the Tomb Raider games. I own all of them from the 1997 first Tomb Raider game right up to Guardian of Light released in 2010. However, they are extremely difficult to play if you are blind. You litterally have to break the levels down to remembering how many steps to a certain lever or switch, how many steps to a door, remembering which sound indicates you picked up a rrelic, whatever. It is mind numming memorization. It is not really playing per say. It is simply trying to play as best as you can on past experience and by hours of practicing the same thing over and over again until you get it right. That's what turns me off on playing mainstream games. I like them but I hate spending hours of effort into playing one.
