Re: MUDs for the visually impaired

From what I gathered Achae's combat is so fast, intense, and complicated that most people use a bot. And I assume some amount of $$ is involved to be a top combatant.

The degree to which a blind player can compete will vary per game. The real test would be a sound only MUD to determine whether competing with sighted players is frustrating enough for blind players to move to such a MUD.

It might be an interesting investment for a company like IRE, as all that's needed is two narrators (male and female) and text to speech software.
