Most games, for instance, do not offer accessible user interfaces on any level.


Speaking of games, one of the most accessible I've ever run across was Gears 5.

It allows you to add ping to various obstacles, has both TTS and STT, and so on and... I could actually play it, whilst blind [1]. I could play a shooter, and not suck, without my sight.

A lot of what they did with the engine was really simple, but I so wish that there was a wider adoption of those kinds of techniques.

[1] My blindness comes and goes. Some days I have 0% vision, other days 75%.


Which is bad.
