For me, #accessibility can, through the right features and design decisions, allow me to experience the same games as everyone else, with no sight whatsoever.
Everyone, disabled or not, should be able to participate and enjoy. Accessibility is how we make that happen.

We need to stop thinking of accessibility and other aspects of inclusion as separate things in an organisation and just think of them as part of the professional culture of the organisation. They should become a given in any organisation. Thoughts? #accessibility #Accessibility
