Looking for participants (self.Blind)
submitted by WarmBedsOfBeginners
Hi everyone!!
I'm a master's student researching how the interface elements used in games work for visually impaired people. I'm looking for volunteers to share their experience, doesn't matter if you're just a casual player or the platform you play in. We'd have a few online calls of around 30 mins each centered around that. If you're interested just comment on this post or message me.
I posted this on r/VIGaming too but I figured it could reach more people here.

I would be happy to join a call about this.
for the most amount of coverage I would try audiogames.net and AppleVis.com
Those two sites are where you will find the majority of blind gamers (unfortunately Reddit has not caught on with them very much yet) though do keep in mind that you will need an account for both.
neither site is close to sighted participants, but with audiogames.net you will need to make an introductory post in the restricted users topic (it's a protection against bots) but it rarely takes more than a couple days to be unrestricted.
I will send you a private message so we can work out the details of the call.

I'll ask my boyfriend if he's interested in helping out. This is his kind of thing.
