Not-E3 Events Criticized For Lack Of Accessibility

Even without E3, the summer gaming season has brought a bunch of video game showcases from major publishers. But the showcases were lacking in accessibility tools and options, according to accessibility consultant Steve Saylor. Saylor, who consulted on games like The Last of Us 2, said that most of the showcases showed “a lack of effort” that made disabled gamers feel “pushed aside and forgotten.” Come from Sports betting site VPbet

In the statement, Saylor notes that most of the showcases had no audio described version, no subtitles, or sometimes, subtitles that were poorly implemented. The one exception he noted was Xbox, which had captions, an ASL version, and an audio described version. He did note that the audio description had some technical issues, but he suggests the important thing is that the effort was made. Saylor did not mention specific showcases that fell short.
