Hi John.
I've checked the site, and as far as blog and review sites go it seemed okay
with Hal, ----- usual shortcuts seemed to work, and ctrl down arrow got me
to the site content.
Indexing links somewhere at the top for news catagories might be nice, ----
but there's no difficulty in going to the bottom and finding them from
there.
As to the favourites thing Phil mentioned, ---- -well like Wikipedia pages
the site does seem to have pre set link hotkeys for alt f etc, but there's a
symple work around I've used on wikipedia for years, ---- alt T for tools,
then left into favourites and add.
I did read an artical about hereing impared gamers and tabletop which I
found interesting, however I do wonder if the focus of that site, ---- being
more on motion imparement, deafness and colour blindness makes it a good
place for discussion of games without vision, or with extremely limited
vision.
On retroremakes.com I remember posting a topic about how dissatisfied I was
with the Wiimote menue system, sinse it actually precludes me from accessing
any of the console functions or learning where menue items are, ---- the way
I would in a standard console game, and wishing there was an alternative to
have a one press menue system of the classic type.
I was given some very hard answers, ---- and told that the Wiimote system
was great for motion impared gamers.
This is one case where an accommodation for one disability actually
precludes another, ---- in fact one of the articals I read was an
interesting one about a deaf player playing tabletop wargames, talking about
the visual appeal and nature of the game making it accessible.
Yet, such a game would be virtually impossible for a blind person, ----
given the non-stratified piece movement and necessity to review the table
with many objects.
By the same tocan though, standard dice roleplay such as D&D, ---- where the
Gm speaks what is happening and players' communicate their characters
movement is incredibly accessible for someone with a visual
imparement, --- -but would I guess be severely difficult for a deaf player
due to the communication issues and the necessity to listen to the Gm.
Just my thoughts.
Beware the grue!
Dark.
