Hello! This is a thread posted for #99418 (moderator Feather gave me the ok to post for them!) ---------- Hi, I'm Kita, and I'm new, so I know I'm not supposed to make suggestions until I've been here a while, but I feel my situation is unique enough, My sister was the one who got me into this site, and while it's wonderful and filled with such a nice, helpful community, there are some minor issues that prevent me from being able to enjoy it to the fullest, namely, I have a messed up mutated version of protanopia, a type of colour blindness. This makes any red text, (or yellow, or orange...) texts and images tend to get messed up, mixed up to the point where if you have red text on an orange background, I can't read it, and the HP bar is impossible to discern for me. Unfortunately, that makes exploring among other things really hard for my poor blind self. Combat becomes a horrible guessing game of failure, and it's hard for me to even see if I won or lost. I'm not sure what the solution for this would be. A lot of nice people suggested white numbers on the HP bars to make it a bit more accessible for folks like myself, and it'd be great if I could choose certain text colours rather than trying to copy and paste everything somewhere else to read it. I hope this gives you guys some thought! Again, great game, and thanks for taking the time to read my post, as well as thanks to Detective for posting for me, Sincerely, Kita ------- The suggestion would be to add a Total HP # on the battle health bars. Large, white numbers might be best. Feel welcome to suggest any other ways to make the site more accessible to all members! |

Yes! I would love this! I have protan [red-green] colourblindness and so this would really help! 0 players like this post! Like? |

Support! This would be a whole lot easier for a lot of people! Even those who have trouble seeing things or people who live with their computer at low brightness (like me)! 0 players like this post! Like? |

I am not color blind but i have had friends that are. And i tried to introduce them to this game, allowed them to watch me play and they have had trouble with several different aspects of the game. Namely the bars and texts from some of the areas of the game. I am not sure what could be done about helping those players that have color blindness. If it was possible i would suggest putting a setting in the den settings that allows for color blind people to have the ability to turn off the bars or colored text in forums. That being said, i know that there are many types of colorblindness so i am not sure how well that would work. That is why i support this suggestion. 0 players like this post! Like? |

Hello! I totally support this, because I think everyone should be able to get 100% out of Lioden! I'm not sure if you've tried this, or if it would even help you, but since Lioden is made up of orange and yellow hues, possibly you could turn your Lioden settings to display in night mode, which changes the oranges to a blue-ish colour. Maybe that would make Lioden as a whole a bit easier for you to navigate? 0 players like this post! Like? |

I have it on nightmode and that helps certain things, but the stuff I mentioned remains difficult. :( Thanks so much for the suggestion though! 0 players like this post! Like? Edited on 23/10/16 @ 22:13:41 by Kita (#99418) |
