Based game devs going the extra mile to make their game accessible to everyone

When I was a kid I was taught to confront and overcome my fears rather than succumb to them and be coddled. I'm only 25 years old. Is this really the mentality that zoomers are growing up with?

Looking from a high place in a video game won't trigger acrophobia, talking to an NPC won't trigger social anxiety, looking at a spider that's several times larger than the player will trigger arachnaphobia

why would a person with arachnaphobia play a "honey I shrunk the kids" game anyway?
this kind of setting makes more sense in games that aren't, ya know, about facing gigantic critters. Like how House Flipper has a setting that replaces cockroaches with pieces of glass

>"I speak for every single person with every single phobia"
Yeah, fuck off.

Many games nowadays trigger my homophobia

bullshit. I get dizzy sometimes up high in games and my asshole always clenches when doing a Superman dive off of something.
At least I'm not scared of spiders like a pussy faggot, though.

This might save the industry.

I agree with you almost entirely, but when I look down from high up places in a game with high graphical fidelity, my ape brain gets nervous. Not even to say anything about VR games.

they already do in russia and china

What is it with with arachnophobia specifically that make people such massive pussies with it comes to spiders in games?

I have a general phobia of insects to the point where I once spent 1 and a half hours at 2 am moving all my furniture around because I saw a harmless crane fly and couldn't sleep until I knew it was dead. I once had a silverfish crawl onto my pillow and even now 6 months later I still keep a protective quilt between the gap from my bed to the wall. More or less every night I'm scared awake because my own damn hair casts a shadow that looks like an insect, and despite the fact that it happens every night, I'm still compelled to turn on a light and check see if there is something actually there. I once failed to kill a spider in my bathroom and for 2 days I pissed in a sink. That's how bad I am, but I still don't understand how you can get scared from spiders or insects in video games. It's a fucking video game.

Bullshit.
I have extreme crippling arachnaphobia and acrophobia in real life. The arachnaphobia has never translated to video games, not once that i can remember has any video game spider triggered me, even giant ones. I've fought tons of all types including giant bosses and it's never bothered me at all.
Acrophobia doesn't trigger often in video games but it definitely can trigger and i've experienced it a few times. Notable examples i can think of would be mirror's edge catalyst on the final mission where you scale the extremely tall building and have to jump off it multiple times to grab small hanging beams suspended in the air. Prince of persia the two thrones near the end where you scale the extremely tall structure on the way to the vizier and have to jump to hanging beams while seeing how high you are. AC3 as desmond climbing the crane ontop of skyscrapers.
My hands get really sweaty and my heart rates goes through the roof when you have to jump into the void of the sky while seeing how high you are.

It literally makes them more horrifying

I'm the exact same way as you and spiders don't bother me in games.

She cute :)

yall are pussies lmao

No. Deep ocean freaks me out too, plus i have no interest in these builder survival games.

I don’t know what goes on in the mind of someone with phobias but it makes them stop functioning and break down so they need help. With that said I’m sure most of the people playing this game has the usual “eek a spider!” response and don’t actually have arachnaphobia. Also you seem high and might for someone using Zig Forums.

Another situation where people who have a small fear for insects or spiders say they have a “phobia” when they’re just disgusted by bugs. Being afraid that a bug is in the house is different from completely shutting down your brain because a bug flew in your room. Most people don’t like bugs, but that doesn’t mean they have a phobia. People are trying way to hard to be quirky or needy so they get special attention no matter how insignificant the help may be.

>cool
>dude what the fuck is that thing watch out it might bite
>ummm actually sweaty, that one is non venomous and have had few reported attacks on humans
Yeah ok, like I'm going to memorize a fucking encyclopedia to know which ones might fuck me up. Get outta here nerd.

The irony of this argument is that your logic is that every game should cater to everyone if it caters to anyone. Which means literally every game should cater to everyone.

An option like this (even though obviously their solution is dogshit) doesn't take away from the game in any way, and the fact that its existence bothers you probably means you have some insecurities you should work out.
