Noobist Interview: A Look Into Developing Injustice’s Accessibility Mode

Gaming is a cherished pastime among young and old alike. Even people who are not gamers can easily get sucked into winning matches and completing levels. Disabled gamers are just a small portion of this massive culture. Games that are accessible and inclusive for us are hard to come by, especially on consoles, and there are only a handful of games that happen to be accessible or have accessibility modes built into them.

One of these rare examples is a fighting game called Injustice: Gods Among Us. It is the first in a new fighting game franchise that introduces an original story featuring a large cast of DC Comics icons such as Batman, Harley Quinn, Solomon Grundy, Superman, The Flash, Wonder Woman and a variety of others. Set in a world where the lines between good and evil can often be blurred, players experience heroes and villains engaging in epic battles on a vast scale

For blind players, the game features a unique accessibility mode. I had a chance to sit down and interview Carlos Vasquez, a blind player who helped NetherRealm Studios create a mode that many blind and visually impaired players would enjoy, even on consoles. This is what he had to say.

This really is an underappreciated problem in the gaming industry. Even giving players the ability to map their own controls, which has been disappearing in games recently, can be a big help to players that have disabilities.

rkingett4308d ago

Agreed totally but it is getting better. developers are hiring more disabled people as consultants. Not to the degree that should happen but it is getting better

gabbboolo4307d ago

As a disabled gamer, I'm glad more accessibility is being given to my fellow Crips

Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.

To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.

Jingsing23d ago

The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

S2Killinit23d ago

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

Jingsing23d ago

15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.

Tanktopmaster9223d ago

These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
