Video Games

I disabled the voice stuff, I know it's supposed to be immersion but whatever.

Only still early days for me, not sure how I feel about it yet

I’ve got H:ZD, and I’ll be playing that after I finish god of war, as I wait for red dead 2 and Spider-Man to come down in price secondhand, or shoved in the New Years sale..
If you do decide to get it, you should be able to find it with the frozen wild expansion pack as well..

yeah everything I've read made it sound like a shitter version of fallout 4.

This. Not interested... Which is sad, I loved fallout3/4

I disabled the voice stuff, I know it's supposed to be immersion but whatever.

Ah good to know.

I enjoyed it, the quest is a bit basic due to lack of dialogue but it almost remind me of the previous Fallout games before 4 in the sense of not having an actual voices.

What I like is that it's a games that's about you, not the character's story.

It's another in my pile of games where I really want, but am concerned just how much of my time it'll take up.

If it were on Vita, I'd be a no-brainer though!

Yeah apparently it's perfect on the Switch. Seems okay so far but I'm feeling (intentionally) handicapped by the limited abilities you start out with.

wow pretty shitty Activison didn't add subtitles. It's not that fucking hard these days

It's not that fucking hard these days.

ZING.

Ditto to Fallout 76, no subtitles in the intro, and some of the "stories" in holotape are just this;

1 Attachment

From what it sounds like, music playing, a narrator (presumably) telling stories with sound effect.

People really cannot grasp the fact we literally need subtitles, I (and others) cannot understand let alone hear what's going on without the aid of subtitles.

It's 2o18, it's beyond excuse not to add them, (Amazon Prime I'm watching you).

Amazon Prime

See also Sky Go. At least AP has subs on some content. Sky Go has none on anything. Nuts.

I watched a video on Amazon Prime the other day that did have subtitles, but they were like 10 seconds behind the actual dialogue, so I had to try to lipread every fucking scene and then mentally backport the subtitles into memory, while lipreading the next scene. Spent about 2 hours trying to figure out how to report it before giving up.

Fuck everything with shit or absent captions right into the centre of the sun, and double fuck anyone who says "there were certain decisions that needed to be made throughout the process" as their excuse for not bothering their arses to provide 'em.

Cunts.

It is well lazy, they have scripts, it takes no time to put subtitles in... Should happen when the final voices are going in really...

Amazon notorious for that, I notice it more on certain channel like Discovery where it’s lagged so much it end up being a minutes out of sync.

Best part? Korean subtitles in one episode of a show that have English subtitles

Right. I have a week off. It's allegedly 'family time' but there will be some games to play. Anyone WFH? I'm alone for the next two hours @chrisbmx116 /anyone else for some PUBG - otherwise, it'll be some Kingdom Come Deliverance.

Ahhh rats, I’ve gone to work today. I’m WFH Thursday though. I’ll keep my set up unpacked if you’re about?

Fired DayZ up again, boy it’s changed.

Would be oddly up for some DayZ.

Yeah will try and be around Thurs.

There is SOOOO much to relearn.

I'll be sitting at home worrying about moving/working/waiting for a radiator to be delivered all day so whenever you're good.

They've added radiators? Great - all that gathering wood and matches was really tedious.

I'm working a lot on accessibility atm, within the ecomm world rather than video games, but there could be grounds for a lawsuit if you really want to get stuck in...

p.s. still using your Core? I just bought one...

A lots of people/company rarely put effort in it because they never needed to do so due to their own privilege.

It's always down to a handful few that push it forwards.

Its actually a form of discrimination that is against the law, its just so few people bother picking up on it here. In the US there are 5 new lawsuits a day..

Made the BBC front page now...

The US is already ahead of subtitles in cinema nowadays, our is basically breaking the Equity Act of 2010 due to just offering subtitles are a weird time of days and hours (says 10am on a Monday, or 3pm on a Wednesday).

Moreso having to look and find a cinema within a 10 miles radius in London that offer the following;

Subtitles
Film I want to watch
Doesn't get in the way of work.

its just so few people bother picking up on it here

It's not that disabled people can't be bothered, it's that disabled people can't afford the financial and time/energy outlay. Class action lawsuits don't work in the UK the way they do in the US (they're harder to bring, for a start), and they're also fairly new in the UK as we didn't have the legal apparatus until recently. The UK's first class action lawsuit was only brought a couple of years ago and they're still pretty rare. Ed Scoble Himself Personally Now vs The Internet isn't really a financially or existentially viable option.

Most disability activism in the UK happens on social media for exactly this reason - putting pressure on companies via Twitter is the only kind of activism that most of us can realistically afford. It chafes a bit to have abled people wondering why we don't just get on and do more :-)

Yes, thats exactly what I meant, all differently abled people are lazy and apathetic, thanks for picking up on that...
