Steam will soon start making it easier for players to search for games based on accessibility features
What’s New
Steamworks has a new accessibility-support questionnaire for developers to better describe the way their games support accessibility. If your game supports Accessibility features, you can now specify that information within Steamworks.
Gameplay options, like adjustable difficulty
Audio accessibility features, including custom volume controls and narrated game menus
Visual accessibility features, including adjustable text size and color alternatives
Input options, which include chat speech-to-text and text-to-speech
Later in the year (once we’ve given developers time to work on it from their end) we’ll start sharing the resulting information with players in the Steam store and Steam desktop client.
People need to remember that news about how Steam has like 300 employees. They do a ton with a small crew, and they stay down to earth. Coming from all sorts of console gaming and the shittyness of that, It’ll be a long time before I criticize Steam.
Did a quick search to remind myself. 300 for Valve. Only like 80 are dedicated solely to Steam.
I understand what you’re saying but we’re talking about a multi billion dollar company. At this point there is no excuse you can give for not fixing simple and easily identifiable issues with user experience - especially since all of this has been criticised for years. As much as I appreciate some of the recent additions, fixing this mess should be priority number one.
