Hi Kelvin. Actually, the hearing issue makes the game unplayable for a
portion of those who would otherwise like to play it. In my mind, this
makes it as serious an issue as the reputation bug or the non-panning zombie
problem. I think it's completely fair for those with this problem to ask

Hi all.
I also agree that dying should cost you. My opinion is that some blind
people are just too used to having things the easy way because most
sighted people around them quickly respond in sympathy as soon as they
start complaining.

I completely agree that the issues of panning and such for the hearing

However, I don't believe that a game should be made harder for those who

In certain zombie lore, they do moan/growl constantly. Max Brooks comes to
mind. I could certainly see that being built into the game. If that doesn't
work, however, you can identify zombies by their footsteps usually. Most
zombies walk, and the zombie dogs run twice as fast as any player.
HTH,
Post note: I had originally intended to put this post in the main thread,

Common sense doesn't necessarily apply because it is virtual reality

Hi. I agree completely with ryan. Games should me made as accessible
to all as possible without compromizing the challenge, otherwise where

Not only that but nowadays when you emulate, say a game for the NES, there
