While it is too late for me to be going down any rabbit hole of a video, I will say that playing yourself to any extend in a game is quite important. I mean, you can roleplay however you want, but I find it quite comfy if a game even has the components to represent me as I walk the plains of x-ville. I know more than a few people who were ecstatic to have their characters be trans in Cyberpunk. I know the more customization the more work, and I don’t expect indie developers to bring the noise. It’s nice though, when you get a chance to pick a character (for one) and have it look like you want it to look like (for two).
I am not sure if you even keep playing games like that but often it’s those ones that end up having to get returned. Which is such a bummer, because it so easily could be solved. Most times when you reach out to the company though (or devs, which ever) unless it’s a really small team they will typically ignore your requests. Any time I have had accessibility requests, without hesitation smaller teams have implemented them almost immediately. Likewise they’ve asked if there is anything else that I might need. I know we’re getting better at accommodating people, but there are still people who believe you can just “get gud” and work through these problems. When in actuality, they game-ending experiences. Which really sucks. Thanks for sharing by the by =)
