I am very disheartened by my experience with @helldivers2. In order to play video games I use an infrared hat to relay movements I make with my head into keyboard presses. Helldivers 2 blocks the program from input. I have not met a game yet that blocks my hat, until now. But even worse, they also block Dragon NaturallySpeaking-My dictation program that allows me to use my voice to speak to my computer, and Comfort on-screen keyboard-a virtual keyboard that allows the mouse to push keyboard keys. Effectively, an anti-cheat protocol is blocking assistive technology inputs from being read by the game. I don't have a solution for this. I hope to reach out to them and work with them on getting these things unblocked because anyone who needs any of those kinds of assistive technologies will not be able to liberate any democracy.
@stevenspohn @helldivers2 It sucks I get it but Blame it on the cheaters.. not the developers..but in the meantime play a different game, there are options
@stevenspohn @helldivers2 And I would bet most of the people that will say "yeah that's not right" are cheaters hoping to use your disability in their (the cheaters) favor.
@Theboogeymann25 @stevenspohn @helldivers2 You can farm super credits without cheats, thousands per hour with the right conditions. Cheats are already in the game. Anti cheat does literally nothing it's meant to do, but it does block legit programs from working. It was blocking DISCORD ffs in the beginning.
@Theboogeymann25 @stevenspohn @helldivers2 Need some more straw to build that man?
@Theboogeymann25 @stevenspohn @helldivers2 Elaborate how you can use any of the accessibility features listed in OP to cheat especially in a PvE game
@Theboogeymann25 @stevenspohn @helldivers2 its so much harder to move your head and speak out loud than it is to just use the default peripherals. the thing about cheaters is that they're extremely lazy and entitled. there's no exploit derived from assistive periphreals/programs that a cheater would want to use.
@Theboogeymann25 @stevenspohn @helldivers2 There are more disabled people in the world than people who cheat in games… No idea why you think this. (Coming from me, a disabled person who has also never once cheated in multiplayer games, especially to make other’s gameplay unenjoyable)
