Thanks for posting this OP, it actually means a lot to see someone talking about this.

I’ve been very lucky in that my pain has responded really well to medication, but I’ll never forget how absolutely awful it felt to be physically unable to play the games I love. I hope we continue to push for accessible features in games more and more, this is a great hobby and when you’re trapped at home it can have an enormous impact on your quality of life. Even just the social aspect of gaming is a huge benefit.
