FreeSTONE Posted August 8, 2021 Share Posted August 8, 2021 Extra to the two color-changing settings, could there be something for colorblindness? Some games already have it (e.g., Left4dead 2). Extra points if that would be somehow configurable (more things to fiddle with). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FreeSTONE Posted February 26, 2022 Author Share Posted February 26, 2022 After 6 months no reply, I am trying again: Could colorblind mode be added? Just simple reconfiguration of the color-changing schemas that are already there. I wonder why this was not massively extended already. Bonus points if the color-changing would be connected with gameplay - like, player finds tinted glasses - each of them can be equipped and give different effect. Could also add some protection from cold and damage. Maybe aven some achievement to "find all 6 types of glasses". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would it, instead, skew the colors that already exist in the game. I could see this as being something that modders might add so that people could add it in only if they wanted it or needed it. If HL adds it, it should be an accessibility option only... not affecting the gameplay or the feat/achievement status of the file. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are there any areas that feel particularly challenging at the moment? We will certainly make sure the design team takes it into consideration for future updates. Edit: Just confirmed that this is already on the team's radar and we are currently working on solutions. Thanks again! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But after the mode is added, I can comment again to confirm, what new things I started to see 🙂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leeanda Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 (edited) I'm not familiar with this ! I am slightly colorblind ,weirdly with light grey and light blue! There's a lot of both on the game!🙂 Would it even make a difference in my case? Edited March 14, 2022 by Leeanda 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I meant, besides any colorblind people. Just a game item: glasses, that can be used, to protect eyes, and to see world in different colours. Like, if put on, you can see yellow-tinted. Could be useful in night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Future updates came, I even bought the DLC - nahh, nothing for colorblind people. But I'm not complainting. This is just a "ping". Maybe you could somehow re-open that topic?

Glflegolas Posted December 29, 2022 Share Posted December 29, 2022 I am another colourblind player - reds in particular are hard to see against grey or brown. This isn't usually too much of an issue in general, though a colourblind mode from Hinterland would be appreciated. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I realized it could be useful when searching for coal in caves. And maybe the weather (or su) would look a bit better for us. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Posted May 5, 2023 Share Posted May 5, 2023 Thank you for the continued discussion. @FreeSTONE-- we are still working on a number of accessibility options, and we don't currently have any new information to share on this. We will absolutely post information if or when it is available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
