Re: I need clarification about ps5
Re: I need clarification about ps5 There is no way to get cheap games, especially if they are digital games. However, you can wait for the game you want to get a discount, there are offers from time to time in the PS Store. Also, although newer and higher-budget games are usually priced at €70, there are games that are priced lower from the start. They tend to be less popular games. Also games that were released a few years ago have a reduced price.In short, if you want to get a popular and new game, you will have to pay a high price or wait for a price drop, either cause of a temporary discount or cause time has passed since the launch.

Re: Fifa 21 on PS4 and narrator
Re: Fifa 21 on PS4 and narrator I'm not sure, but I think the TTS is only available in English. It's even possible that it's only available in US English, oddly enough. So, being in Europe, possibly the English you can choose is UK English.

Re: Console opinion
Re: Console opinion I'll never recommend Switch. Not only is it the only console that still doesn't have a screen reader, but Nintendo has not shown the slightest interest in accessibility in any of their games or consoles.Yes, you can use a console without a screen reader, we've done that for years. However, in my opinion, we should support companies that do show real interest to we can access their products, and criticize those that don't.As for getting PS5 and Xbox Series, I'm trying to get the first. PS exclusive games do not usually reach PC, while Xbox games do. So ,with a PS5 and a powerful PC you could play the games of both platforms.

Sence we use norwegian as a language, or does it switch when the screen reader turnes on in setup?You will most likely need to change the system language to English for the screen reader to work. Hopefully I'm wrong, but I don't think the reader speaks Norwegian text with the English/Spanish/Italian/etc voice. In setup, after connecting the controller, I assume that you will need to choose a language supported by the screen reader to continue setup in an accessible way.

Re: linking up with blind video gamers
Re: linking up with blind video gamers I've been using Discord for several months now, and it's fully accessible on mac, and now iOS as well. There is only a small problem on mac with the list of servers, but simply disable quick navigation, press down arrow or up arrow and you will be browsing the list. Hit enter on a server and it will take you there. Everything else navigates correctly and is perfectly labeled.Obviously I prefer Discord to Skype, the former is much better for organizing something like that. Also, I haven't used Skype for years.The idea of creating a community of blind gamers focused on mainstream games seems great to me, I hope it succeeds and we can enjoy together. Like several here, my interest in audio games has been waning fastly for some time. For me, the future is in accessible video games, and being able to play with all kinds of people, not just our small community of audio games.

Re: any of you play lords and nites/ keltic tribes?
Re: any of you play lords and nites/ keltic tribes? I played this game for quite a long time. Two things here:1. Prepare to be very stressed if you want to really compete. I spent nights launching attacks for hours, and then entire mornings defending my castles and those of my allies. It's tough and 2 years ago I decided that was not for me.2. Players of these games spend a lot of money on it. There are more and more things to pay for with real money, from buying free fortresses to speeding up the recruitment of troops or increasing the points of newly conquered castles and fortresses to a certain point instantly. It is at this point where the game business is, and there really comes a time when you either pay or lose.I played on a server in Europe where there were clans from different countries. In the end, the Russians and Poles always prevailed, largely due to the fact that they spent the most money on game. In the servers of my own country (Spain) I played longer and there were fewer differences, since the economic level is more equal. In any case, the top positions were always occupied by those who made the most purchases in the game.The game is fun, but if you are competitive and you like to stand out you will have to pay. This for me is the main problem, along with the large amount of time that you will have to dedicate.

Re: Old Deathmatch Games
Re: Old Deathmatch Games I loved this audio game. Would it be possible to improve it and put it back online? I had a good time there. I really liked the ship combat system. Actually, it is the online audio game that I have played the most. I was very sorry when it disappeared from everywhere and tried to look for this client and server package, but there was no way to get it. I doubt that I have the necessary knowledge to mount the server, even more to modify it and make it more efficient. Still, I would love to play again.

Re: Do you still believe in the audio game revolution?
Re: Do you still believe in the audio game revolution? I think the right way is for video games to be accessible to everyone. Audio games do not have advanced mechanics. Not great stories either. Also, there are many genres and themes that have not been explored in audio games at all. Centering the sound to shoot was fine 15 years ago. Reacting left or right was fine 10 years ago. Today I think we all want something more.
