There are infinitely more accessibility settings and devices on the market now than there's ever been. Ever. I get that not everyone is able to play, but the industry is leaps above what it was before.
Yeah, I'm hearing impaired and need captions. I've never seen a major game without them for many years now, and recent games have gone above and beyond with things like captioning sounds (not just dialogue) and directional indicators.
I kinda hope someday they'll remaster the original Assassin's Creed. It's the only non-spin off in the series that I haven't played. I own a copy, but gave up on it because it has no captions and I couldn't understand what anyone was saying.
