Sure, let me dive into this—oh, wait. So, Steam did this thing, right? They kinda tweaked the whole searching bit so you can now find games by accessibility features. Wild, huh? I guess they mentioned this in some blog post or something, and they’re, like, “Hey, we wanna make sure more folks can play games,” or something.
Anyway, now you can sort of filter games not just by difficulty but also by whether you can, like, increase text size or if that pesky menu voice thing is switched on. I mean, who knew text size was such a big deal? But hey, apparently it is.
And these details pop up on the store pages too. So, if you’re browsing through titles—boom—there’s your info. But why am I even telling you? I guess it’s ’cause Valve mentioned they had this feedback séance with, like, developers and gamers with disabilities. They said over 5,000 games got their accessibility info spruced up now. Honestly, I’m not sure if that’s a lot or not, but there you go.
They say these details help people pinpoint exactly what features they might need or want. Seems fair enough to me. But, like, it could all just be a ploy to get us looking at more games. Who knows?
