I really don't know if I should post this but... ah whatever.
Holy crap! So there was this news coming out about Forza Motorsport getting a blind drive assist feature. This is amazing news. I always wanted to play it, and until now, the accessibility features, while nice, didn't actually get it to a state that I would personally call playable. But you know what grinds my fucking gears? (ha.).
News outlets started reporting this. And without fail, there was at least a few people in the comments going "what's the point? Seems like a waste of time. Blind people don't play Forza!". Or "Blind people can't/shouldn't play video games!".
To all of those who think that, I offer a hearty fuck you. We've been playing your shitty games before you even considered us and started adding accessibility features. We've been figuring out your shitty world and how we can make it work even outside of video games. And you know what? The only thing that's a waste of time here, is you. Fuck off. Very glad we have developers that listen, and very glad we have people who fight for game accessibility. Get that ableism out of my face.
