@Quentin, interesting, sadly I don't speak French so can't check out
that association you mentioned in Paris, but I will say in Britain,
though we have plenty of equality based legislation, social equality for
blind people is very much not there yet, and sadly the RNIB are so
orientated towards the elderly it's not funny.
I based my thoughts about the decline of tabeltop games around the fact
that we've found nearly nothing.
there are larp events as you said, that is live roleplay, but Larp does
not interest me since I do not want to roleplay as a blind person and
have the same limitations on my character choice as I do in reality.
In terms of roleplaying, since my lady and I have wanted so badly to
find a group, we've done a lot of research, and found bugger all, even
from those places you'd expect to have active tabletop rp groups, EG
shops that sell Rp supplies, or my brothers Ccg playing friends, but
have had no luck whatsoever, despite searching fairly intensively for
the past three years.
Perhaps in some of the really large cities like London it is more
common, but even in university towns, the interest just doesn't seem to
be publicised, as opposed to wargames and ccgs which are far more
regularly advertised, hence me concluding that tabletop role playing is
falling off, which as I said, is bloody depressing.
All the best,
Dark.
