1000% on the accessibility issue. I’ll also say that it’s weird that all in game auras are the same 3 colors. Like there are 5 perks that turn generators yellow when they’re being affected by a perk, meaning despite the perks potentially having synergy, the same color auras make them difficult or impossible to use together. Why not make different perks have different color auras (might help killers distinguish which survivors are affected by which perks too).

And yes, spinechill did not leave my surv build from 2017 all the way till we got heartbeat sense on survivors basekit. God I miss that perk...give us back our vault speed.

Accessibility option: Optional small subtle brief visual indicator of player sounds (and *rough* direction) above a certain decibel in close range and/or subtitles for all player sounds above a certain decibel in close proximity. Also resolves the problem of people with bad headphones. If it's normally detectable with a certain human sensory organ, compensate with another sensory organ for people with disabilities. Perks that silence or reduce sounds should also effect this detection indicator. This option should only be implemented for guarantied to be heard noise within close range. Games should consider and implement accessibility options for people with disabilities as standard. Games are a positive and contributory stimulation tool for those that struggle to normally access such things.

​@@kingol4801 "Make life good for all players" And that is EXACTLY what i am suggesting. Good headphones allow a player to tell where and what something is that is making audible sound... people who have hearing issues or lack of money to buy expensive technology do NOT have to endure avoidable hardship... no matter what the entitled in this world believe. If a sound can be CLEARLY heard (Detected)... the "stealth" element is completely gone, therefore it's totally possible to introduce a alternative detection to compensate for those who are unfortunate WITHOUT giving a additional benefit to those who are fortunate to have 100% hearing and good headphones. If i can clearly hear someone breathing in a locker right in front of me... a brief small visual indicator is NOT going to benefit me in anyway... infact... if i have the feature turned on, it's unnecessary because i have the ability to hear... it may even be annoying to me (making sure i turn it off as i don't need it). If someone jumps from a height screams and slams into the ground 5 meters from me... there is ZERO reason for me to not detect it as my senses are not impaired. I am not talking about a large noise indicator that updates constantly for someone walking at 50 meters... i am talking about a brief small indicator for loud sounds near the player. This feature is already in games unintentionally.... it's known as a "damage indicator"... you know.. that feature that visual compensates for a players inability to FEEL... another sensory organ. Also in this very video when Otz hooked the last survivor, a indicator came on the screen for the person screaming on the hook. A toned down restricted version could also be implemented for additional sounds... like someone screaming whilst they fall... for example. The solution is already there... it just needs to be carefully expanded.

The heartbeat visual, yes! I get overstimulated easily (AuDHD), so I can hyperfocus (no pun on the perk intended) on the wrong things in a game sense and get distracted easily. The visual heartbeat has helped sooooooo much with that.

The final fantasy music @3:15 caught me off guard but not in a bad way

Honestly as someone who isnt deaf but does have a hard time hearing certain ques (especially when a lot of noises are happening at once) one of the best things a game can do is just put in subtitles. It doesn't have to say the direction its coming from but just seeing on your screen *bill grunts* when he falls helps a lot A game that did this WONDERFULLY before most of these things were even thought about was left 4 dead and left 4 dead 2. You could not only hear the different piano or violin stings the specials made, not only could you hear the noises they make and hear your teammates say "boomer" the subtitles would pop up with everything but the musical sting

3:05 Holy that FFX Besaid Island background music had me so confused. I've been listening to a final fantasy playlist as I work every day for the last 2 years, which has this song playing a lot. I was checking my open apps for 5 minutes trying to figure out where it was coming from until I realized. Great choice in song though.

Watching Otz play DbD while the Besaid Island theme plays in the background is a little trippy for me

One thing people should remember when talking about accessibility is: it's not about making things easy for them, it's about making it possible.

Some time ago I saw someone on the DbD forums ask for more sound indicators for hard of hearing players to be added, and they gave the example of Wraith - without being able to hear the ringing of his bell, every match is like playing against his iridescent add-on. And the fact that it's iridescent rarity shows how the devs understand as well how important sound cues usually are in DbD. Personally I love the sound design in this game, and the unique sounds for different actions and Killer powers, but I do wish there was an option for some sort of accesibility feature, for both Killers and Survivors... As Killer it is so much harder without being able to hear injured survivors, or if a gen is being worked on. In that forum post, they suggested some sort of vibration in the corner of the screen for example, to signal the bell ringing. There are really several ways these things could be creatively added to the game.

Also thank you for talking about accessibility it means a lot to me as a disabled woman and made me so happy and feel emotional you don’t usually see big content creators talking about it and usually it’s just other disabled ppl talking about it and I’m so grateful you’re bringing more awareness to your audience

"I can edit in a soothing water sound" *uses the Besaid theme* incredibly based of you Otz

love calm the final fantasy background music. noticed it instant. absolutly lovin it

The sight one is such a broad spectrum, too. I'm functionally blind so I've always run a ton of filters, which--with every visual update--help less and less. I make the bright makes darker, the dark maps brighter, and it's not any sort of advantage, it's so I can just see. And most of the time it doesn't even help. Autohaven's weird green haze doesn't ever really go away; corn is always corn; and tracking on indoor maps is virtually impossible. But we always try to make it work.

@ThePhantomSafetyPin

Ай бұрын

I get this. I have extremely acute sensory needs. I need a very specific brightness but not TOO bright or it's hard for my sensitive eyes to see, so I run VERY minor filters to help with this. The problem is sometimes also that blinding (the bright animation NOT the status) can sometimes also trigger my sensory issues. Not all the time but it can. I fucking hate flashlights more than the average person.

As someone who's deaf since birth on both ears, but currently has a cochlear implant only on the right ear but loves dbd and playing as a killer, I instantly knew why he missed it since it looks like my gameplay lol. Going to get implanted on the left ear in July so finally going stereo, can't wait. btw, Whispers is such a good perk for people like me, it has saved me matches numerous times, but at the same time it takes up a perk slot that could've been slotted with a more advantageous perk, so it would be amazing to have an accessibility option, since dbd is incredibly dependent on audio direction

hey this is me to a certain extent, theres a lot of things i cant hear and auras/ scratch marks are very difficult for me to track. Thanks for making a video on this its really cool to see!

This is very random but hearing the Besaid island music from FFX kinda brought me to tears, I had very few good memories as a kid, but playing that game with my siblings is something I will never forget. Thanks for that

I appreciate this so much. I am not colorblind or hard of hearing but I think you should do this more often, mostly the color filter part, to show people how much it sucks to have these issues and maybe reach the devs with it. More people being aware of these problems the more likely it is the devs will do something to help. Maybe to a once a month stream with colorblind filters or something like it to just make people more aware. I think that would be awesome!

As someone who has a slight color blindness, I can attest that it happens to me so many times that I lose a chase because I mostly see scratchmaks that are 1m away (not to mention that I use some nvidia filters to boost that saturation, or else red is way too muted in the rest). Also having to stick my face to a wall or an obstacle to be able to see auras in some maps is so annoying. I really appreciate that video Otz, love the geniune concern you've shown !

Fun Fact: there's a perk in Dead By Daylight called (Whispers) which indicate a survivor is in your AoE, depending on how close you are the (Whispers perk) will glow harder to indicate the survivor is near you, and if it fades away you're losing the presence of the survivor,

Hey Otz, thanks for reviewing that match and realising this! I’m fully deaf with only a cochlear on my left side that is only half as good as your ear :) Means I cannot rely on audio that well, but I play with a lot of spinning around to make sure my left is able to hear all around me. And as you said with experience you don’t need to rely on the senses that much.

Before Christmas, for a few months, my headphones had broken and so I had to play with one ear off and it disoriented me so easily and would find myself getting constantly frustrated the moment they turned to my blind sided ear purely because of just how hard it was to try and predict as a still learning player. Much love to the people who still find a way to play their favorite games despite the lack of accessibility, lets push for more!

I'm a killer main with 350 hours in the game, and am Red/Green Colorblind (deuteranomaly), and shades of colors with red/green in them blend together very easily. (I.e. blue and purple look very similar) but even things like brown and green, pink and gray, yellow & green, red and brown, all blend in together relatively well. While there are options available to assist in correcting the colors in game/make them more vibrant (my GPU has colorblind settings that can apply to any game I play) even with them at their strongest, I can find myself missing scratch marks because they blend in, or second guessing myself if something is a sign of a survivor or just part of the map. While looking at my monitor, all the colors "should" appear better to me, I've spent so much time in life second guessing colors that my brain gaslights me subconsciously on what a color actually is. I super appreciate the attempt to immerse yourself into what others might struggle with/experience, just wanted to explain the colorblind angle, because 1. Monochromatic colorblindness is EXTREMELY rare, with Red/Green being the most common, and Blue/Green being the next most common. But also wanted to explain how shades, and colors can blend together, and how you still might not get that via a monochromatic point of view. Love the content, thanks Otz!

I feel this to my core. I'm also Red/Green colorblind (with 550 hours in dbd). I actually dropped dead by daylight because of how hard it is to see the scratch marks. For about 2 years of watching Dead by Daylight creators I didn't even know about the scratch marks. Only learned about them when I looked up tips and tricks on how to chase survivors. edit: I used to attempt following scratch marks by looking out for the black part of it. Instead of the red because the red just blends in.

You helped me be a killer main since 2020, thank you good guy otz :)

Great video! As someone who is colorblind, I despise Ormond because I cannot see scratch marks on it and often lose survivors. This leaves me having to go off audio and seeing them directly, which can be difficult if a survivor decides to leave a loop or use and exhaustion perk to tget away

The final fantasy music on the background made me feel nostalgic as fuck out of nowhere

The "relaxing music to cleanse one's soul" music in order for the video to not only be Otz's voice lol

I am myself deaf on my left ear due to a broken bone in the ear and sometimes Its really rough. Something I noticed is flashbangs, they make a subtle noise and sometimes I just dont hear it bc its on the side I dont hear. Something that is also impossible is directional hearing. It is impossible to tell from where a sound came even if I hear it, so playing against spirit is just guessing and its super unfun to be destroyed by that, playing spirit the same and any other killer it limits just somethings like hearing though a wall to know if they doubleback. That just takes away enjoyment when I lose the survivor because they run to my left. Im glad this video gives a bit more attention to that problem same as the colorblind problem. So thanks a lot Otz for this video

It would also be eye opening to see this same setup on survivor gameplay which I think could be much more stressful. I mean, we have killer perks that mess with audio and visuals so clearly it has an impact but imagine dealing with it every moment of everyday for the rest of your life. Mad respect to people who do what they love no matter what their are experiencing.

As someone with hearing problems I didn't learn that there was a sound cue for skill check until a year after I started playing the game. I always really struggled against Spirit as they're sound reliant both to play & to play against optimally. Also when I first started I struggled a lot with survivors escaping me by hiding in lockers, I still remember one game where all the survivors caught on that I wasn't good with lockers so they kept escaping me in really easy to catch ways. Once I got more experience in the game lockers didn't really affect me anymore for the most part. I heavily relied on visual perks like Bloodhound, Predator, & just seeing the birds be alerted from the distance. Whenever I would play Killer against my friends, if they wanted to mess with me they would just fast vault a pallet over & over again mid-chase to make it extra difficult for me to track the ones I was chasing because the fast vault noise was so overpowering compared to the other noises for me.

i love the black and white filter, makes the game really hard, but fun.

Nice video! Total different perspective for sure. I personally would be very interested in a run/challenge with all the different killers like this. Maybe even a comparison :) Keep up the good work

as someone who is also deaf on my left side I understand the struggle playing killer XD, why I haven't been able to play spirit since they changed her fathers glasses addon. She was one of my faves to play and because of my inability to accurately track survivors when relying on hearing it rendered her unplayable to me now which is a shame, in most cases i rely purely on visual and heavily take aura reading on most of my killers

The only issue with accessibility settings, would be people who don't need them taking advantage of them This happens on the mobile version for example, you get visual indicators for running or injured survivors pointing exactly at where they are (making Spirit the absolute strongest killer in the game), same goes for some killer powers like Nurse blink, Doctor's shock or Billy's chainsaw for example Sadly, most if not all players end up taking advantage of it even when they don't need to, and all of the indicators actually have an unreasonably big range So while I agree that accessibility setting should be present, I also understand how difficult it is to add something like this while keeping it somewhat "balanced" by not giving some players an unfair advantage

Mobile actually does the balancing right. Spirit should be able to homing-missile upon other players. That or let her actually go through obstacles during her phasing. Etc etc etc Games in general should be balanced around the visual aspect more so than sound-based one, or else headphones create skewed economic discrimination. DbD on mobile makes the game genuinely visual and fair. Unlike DbD on PC

This is definitely true especially if you are streaming. A lot of the time the viewer sees and hears things that you completely miss and they berate you for it. Props to the person who sent it’s the video. I definitely couldn’t play deaf. As for the game it’s played: props to you as well sir for stepping into someone else’s shoes. I wish i could watch the match but for some reason watching anything black and white gives me an ocular migraine. Well done all :)

Fantastic video and well edited!

I played the game completely without moving my legs to simulate playing as a paralyzed person

Otz flexing on deaf, and colorblind guys 💪

Imagine walking in your own home with your eyes closed = You can do it easily because you're already familiar. Now Imagine walking in a stranger's house with your eyes closed = that's the real difficulty for blind people I can keep up with some handicaps because of my thousands of hours of experience in DBD, but I know for the average player this is NOT the case and it's much, much harder!!

Typial Rage bait comment, don't be mad Otz, BIG LOVE

Thank you for highlighting this topic and promoting discussion on it!

That music in the background gave me a nice nap otz, thank you.

We need more people like you. JRM is colorblind as well, he said that scratchmarks and red stains are SO hard to track

We love you Otz, keep up with this amazing content

I thought my music playlist was going off again until I realized Otz chose a goated FFX OST for the BGM cheers for that!

Love the calming music to cover their screams 😊
