Actually it really fucking frustrates me as a disabled person how ‘controversial’ video game accessibility is, how contrived it is to find actually useful accessibility mods for even popular games, how abled gamers try to distance themselves from us because we’re the ones without social lives, who don’t leave the house, who can’t work.

#ra speaks #personal #video games #accessibility #not to mention this is part of why elderly people would LOVE video games but the modern market is hostile to ANYONE who might need help #whether that’s better designed controllers/easier remapping of controls #options for low vision/color blind players #or simply implementing easier difficulties #do you know how much it fucking sucks to love horror and gore and ‘adult’ material #while being relegated to fucking Nintendo kids games bc they’re the only people #who makes games that are approachable and forgiving and MADE to be understood? #this isn’t a stab at convoluted plots or even difficult bosses this is to say that a lot of adult games #don’t have good game design when it comes to having accessible controls or ‘tutorial’ levels #like that’s the bare fucking minimum and jfc is it rare to find a #‘skill issue/git gud’ fun fact I do in fact kick ass in doom 64. #because it’s an older game with simple controls and plenty of accessibility mods #I suck at modern shooters bc they have shit tutorial levels too many buttons and terrible modding scenes #it’s not a matter of skill it’s a matter of accessibility for the purpose of improving that skill

I wish there were Durge-specific paladin, cleric, warlock options where your deity/patron is Bhaal and your oath/contract broke if you defied him, which would lend far more gravitas to playing a redeemed Durge

#bg3 #baldur's gate 3 #dark urge #the dark urge #durge #bhaal #bhaalspawn #baldurs gate 3 #I know Bhaal was a deity option for clerics in early access but I want them to bring it back and expand it #I love the idea of an evil paladin who obeys their oath to the letter while slaughtering hundreds #while breaking your oath to bhaal results in being an oathbreaker still but that’s not necessarily a bad thing #it could have some really fun or interesting dialogue options with Shadowheart and Wyll who go through very similar situations #anyway I know… something something write fanfiction and I will be including this in my long-form durge fic #but it would be cool to see some implementation in the game #after Wyll’s story gets significant improvements ofc

the local anime con is looking for people to write and host events.. what if i did a funny and sent in something abt bsd...... haha just kidding. unless? 😳

#.......20 likes and i will try #i actually started writing an essay abt bsd for fun but it doesn't really work if you're not deeply invested in it i think #i'm thinking smth more like how elements from the authors' lives and works are implemented beyond the namesakes #with an emphasis on the jpn ones bc this con focuses on japanese culture in general as well hehe #this way it's accessible even without knowing bsd and can convince ppl to check it out idk #idk if they'll accept smth that's abt just one anime but the literature aspect might help 🤔 #it is a summer con so the s5 timing works nicely too.

How did Sun and Moon become separate bots? Or were they always separate in your AU?

After the events of the main game and Fazbear gave the order to have the pizzaplex demolished, there was some attempt to salvage what remained in there, including the still intact robots like the daycare attendant.

Sun (and Moon) would have been in a bit of a hazy daze after the virus lifted, not really all there. After having spent so long with a foreign code in their system treating them like a puppet it was almost surreal to be yourselves again.

So when Sun got the ping to come down to parts and service he just simply followed the order. He was numb and didn't really think or care much what became of them.

Until they took Moon out.

For whatever reason, whether they wanted to scrap Moon and keep Sun or simply were pulling them out individually for decommission didn't matter - they took Moon and Sun fought back viciously to get him back again.

With the staff fled or killed Sun is left with Moon's chip. He can't put Moon back into his own head because the p&s machine requires a separate person to operate the computer, so he goes and does a lot of digging around and finds a backup endo for their model that is still intact. He places it in the cylinder, operates the computer and Boom Moon got a new body.

Needless to say when Moon wakes up he is very confused and initially panicky because he can't sense Sun in his head. They don't let go of each other for a long time after.

Eventually they both head back to the daycare area and stay there, not really knowing what to do (until a certain dragon shows up sometime later)

#questions and answers #littledragonettes #fnaf #fnaf security breach #fnaf daycare attendant #jester bots and dragons #Bloo would ask if they'd want to be put back into the same body upon learning they once shared #but they would refuse as they wouldn't want anyone near their heads/chips again #they still have wireless access to one another so they can sense the other and communicate that way #(a feature that was already implemented into all of the pizzaplex robots so they could communicate in case of an emergency) #and they would grow to quite like being in their own bodies #granted they arn't kept out of range from one another for too long #or they may start to panic/fret/glitch out #they can't live without the other afterall

is this why images in reblogs are now microscopic in the app? good job team

#sigh #the fuckening of tumblr #also when do I get polls I have so many terrible ideas #mp #what's even better is the new alt text thing will almost completey cover the tiny image #I appreciate them adding accessibility options but the current alt text implementation is not good for most users #like when you implement accessibility options you should not be making things less accessible for other people #ui and ux are not my passions but even I can think of better ways to implement this then something that often covers text in images #it's so annoying

OH NO SHE'S HOT AND KIND OF MEAN

#CORAL ISLAND #i love this game already there's a billion characters and i wanna be friends with all of them #how am i meant to choose who to date in this game even #it's still early access so most of them aren't implemented but still

[aro-aizawa]

i swear nothing comes close to the amount of pride i get when i follow along a game development especially from an early start its just,,, hhhhhh

#shut up danni #anyways coral island comes out into early access TOMORROW #and the game is SO GOOD #i got a steam key of it bc i backed it at the alpha level #so i was playing the very first alpha version and a number of different versions ever since #it's incredible to watch how the game has changed and evolved since then!!!! #and they really did listen to their community bc i've noticed that they've implemented a few things that some of the other testers suggested #i just-- #PLEASE if you like games like stardew valley please check out coral island when it comes out tomorrow #coral island

you KNOW they put the level cap at 12 bcs with all the content in act 3 you can EASILY get to level 17, which is when most classes get access to 9th level spells and. well. 

having access to true polymorph would have made the clutch decision at the end there a little less. dire.

#sophie.txt #sophie plays bg3 #bg3 spoilers #im keeping it vague but just in case alskdfjsd #i know there's a LOT of spells that would break the game tbh #can u imagine players having access to Wish???? how would you even implement that in a game setting #and ofc ppl have talked about true resurrection wrt to astarion #i still think they should add something where if u save the scroll of true resurrection u can make astarion a human again

Does anyone know good alternatives to google docs?

#I’ve been so used to writing fic on it but people are saying that google implemented ai for it and I’ve been trying to find something as #easy? as google docs #I’m just so used to the software and also I’m used to writing both on my phone and laptop so I wanted to see if there was an app on my phone #that has access to my fics #it’s been lots of days of searching and currently people rec scrivener a lot but the app is so hard to use compared to desktop #I just get kinda antsy with the ai using writers work like !!! it frustrates me so much and I doubt that google is just gonna limit it to #public docs but they’ll roll it to private and that upsets me #I’m ranting!! I’m sorry! #if anyone finds something please let me know!!! thank youuuu #celeste speaks

@wip Can you please please please implement "press down on the image to display the alt text/image description (in copy-pastable format)" in the mobile apps, thereby making said text accessible to sighted people?

I'm writing a longer explanation of why this is important below, but TL;DR, when sighted people don't see image descriptions, they don't use them.

Some things that an app-readable alt-text option would achieve:

Make text in media with difficult-to-read coloring accessible both to colorblind people and people using devices with poor color rendering

Make text in deep-fried/artifact-heavy/poorly-formatted/animated media accessible to everyone, including those with seizure disorders or sensory processing issues

Allow users who don't speak the language used in a piece of media to copy-paste it into a machine translator (VITAL to the international meme economy (and also, y'know, screenshots of news articles and stuff))

Improve accessibility when media fails to correctly download or display (important for people with unreliable/slow/data-limited internet access)

Allows sighted people to see alt-text-related glitches and report them to Tumblr support. This is unfortunately-frequently the only way that a bug in an accessibility feature can be reported at all - after all, what if the bug has made the bug-report platform itself inaccessible? What if a separate bug broke the accessible captcha seven months ago and no one noticed? Not exactly the sort of problem that test suites usually prioritize.

Prevent confused people from repeatedly re-describing/complaining about "undescribed images" endlessly for months or years because they can't see the alt text that's been there since day one (thereby also lowering rates of user-on-user violence)

Again: When sighted people don't see image descriptions, they don't use them. There is absolutely no better way to encourage adoption of a disability feature than to make it available to everyone. Yes, some people do misuse alt text by using it as an alternative to the post body/space for jokes/lies/"secret messages"/SEO/etc - but that will always be a lesser problem than undescribed images. (Besides, people use tags that way, too.)

Wider use of image descriptions means better searchability and filtering.

I feel like some developers misunderstand the purpose of alt/aria attributes as "text to be read by screen readers, which should otherwise be inaccessible." This is not how these properties are meant to be used - they're intended to improve accessibility across the board, for people with non-sight-related disabilities, with outdated tech or bad internet connections, and even for abled people with perfectly-functioning new iPads. Disability advocates overwhelmingly agree that hiding accessibility options from "people who don't need them" is harmful to those who do.

#another nice feature would be embedded ocr in the case of undescribed images but im aware that's a much heavier-duty thing to implement #tumblr #accessibility #tumblr mobile

gives me such anxiety that nobody in dao so much as MENTIONS a horse let alone uses one

#except in dai which barely counts because its so poorly implemented <3 #tay plays dao #oc: elspeth #just thinking abt all the travel on foot with time constraints when horses couldve made the travel so much faster #ig that horses arent easy to come by but. neither is a fucking golem ok #i like to think they at least had access to horse travel for SOME of it. at least when heading to denerim for the landsmeet #esp bc in my heart ella teaches alistair to ride. i dont imagine he had much formal training #whereas she LOVES horse ! she had a beloved horse in highever called haelia (named after a cousland ancestor) who died when the teynir fell #so i like to think alistair gifts her a new one when he became king #and she names her mistral after her mother's famous ship <3

tbh my problem is some dubs are just bad, but theyre the only option bc of my short attention span. another example is the damn yellow subtitles some subs use (looking at you promare) - my cousin tried to get me and my mum (me with sensory issues and my mum with nystagmis) to watch promare subbed and we could not do it :(

Yeah. Like both have flaws that make them inaccessible to certain people, sometimes they're both just. Bad (i am not denying that terrible voice direction is a thing!)

that's why instead of wasting time arguing which is superior we should just. I don't know, make both good.

#alto replies #valdrinors #I feel the attention span issues though #actually being able to change the color of the subs seems like a really easily implemented accessibility issue for websites

Wait a minute how did Dr. KO run into a fish store, he's a robot. If it's holoavatars, adding that to the tfp au unleashes a whole new level of possible hilarity

#hhkggk i get caught up on the strangest of things #don't think i forgot about shockwave's toaster #tfp au #holoavatars would make it much easier for them to buy stuff and to expand the Decepticon earth cash budget #and it would allow Knockout and Breakdown to be a little more convincing at the drive ins #but i feel like giving the vehicons access to holoavatars is opening pandora's box #and the autobots would have extra disguise for their robots in disguise #and it might be able to let Arcee and June go on dates! #ok wow this solves more problems than it creates; how did i implement this because of the goddamn fish marbles

Damn, that survey about jam on toast really has me wishing we had bread (and butter) because I could DESTROY like half a loaf all by myself right now.

Which of my menagerie of maladies is to blame for me craving salt and fat above all else?

I don't fucking know.

Even day-old bread costs like $4 a loaf now. And butter, that shit's like, double digits for a pound.

I don't remember the last time I could eat enough to actually feel full.

I say, while just wanting fucking. Bread.

Hit me with the peasant scraps. I will take your stale heels and I will be delighted.

#personal #food mention #also hey hi my fatigue and despair at the world #are both so significant these days I can't muster any meaningful personal posts any more! #isn't that cool? isn't that great? #my knee will never finish healing and my busted metabolism remains untreated #because my doctor turned out to be pro plague #and I lost all access to prescription medications anyway #because my insurance implemented that fucking middleman program for it #and I'm too fucking busy trying to Remain Alive every day #that I can't even daydream about engaging Phone Anxiety Trauma Hell #which is the only way to set up that shit middleman prescription account! #also my phone just. doesn't make calls #it automatically hangs up the second I hit send on literally any number #except emergency 911 of course bc that's soooo helpful to me #also also the battery exploded. not literally but it. got fluffy #and I had to beg once again for a kind person with spendable money to help me out #it was less than ten dollars which isn't much right? RIGHT? #but I don't have ten spendable dollars so! I had to beg! #and I am very very very grateful someone took pity on me so my phone turns on again #but. it still. doesn't make calls. sigh
