can i just..... make a point that makes sense in my head but might not make sense to anyone else real quick
if youre going to argue against disability accessibility options in video games you ALSO need to argue against literally everything in a video game that makes it easier, such as upgrading tools in stardew or stronger weapons in botw
these are both options that make the game easier for people to progress, but one is labelled as bad and “cheating”, while the other is just a feature
“nyehh but if we add accessibility options then abled people will use them to make the game easer!!” why do you care. if an abled person is having trouble with a game whats the big problem with them using accessibility options. like literally what
lately mario games have assist modes or level skips, splatoon’s octo expansion let you skip levels if you were having too much trouble, but these both were viewed as if it was only kids using them, when in reality little things like that can help disabled people
like theyre LITERALLY optional. why do you give a fuck about what some stranger is using them for, whether theyre disabled or abled. like im just gonna assume you just dont want disabled people to have fun with video games at this point
anyway. end of thread, im just sick of shitheads coming on the internet just to say they dont think disabled people deserve to have hobbies, or anything for that matter
