Hi, it's me! Again!
So, I'm always at the lookout for games for a blind person to play.
And I stumbled accross some blind people online who played this, so that had me thinking.. why not.
She will most likely play with me at all\most times, so let's assume I'm her guide and navigation should not be a huge problem.
The game is very easy to control using only the keyboard, huge plus.
You can use the /point gesture to find out which direction you are looking if needed.
Easy to make a macro for /follow and target enemies etc.
Someone on reddit pointed out that windower allows for the chatlog to be placed in a notepad-file, and with notepad++ in trial mode it can read the chat in realtime with a screenreader, so that solves a huge problem and enables knowing what you're targeting through a macro like /echo <t> since that shows the target in chat.
Have anyone here tried this?
If yes, does the screen reader pick up on stuff in the menu?
Does anyone have any tips that makes this seem even more viable?
I don't currently have FFXI installed so I can't test stuff myself right now.
I'm mostly thinking about bringing her through the world and the story etc, so no need to think about endgame content and how diffiult some fights would be.
