Where are accessibility settings for Dead By Daylight?
This game is 4 years old now and still has 0 accessibility. It doesn't even have a colorblind mode. With the recent issues with auras I think that more people need to talk about this. This isn't an option you need to add these to your game. You are excluding people from playing your game. I am lucky enough that my color blindness doesn't hinder my ability to play. But I know plenty of people who are not in my situation. There are really good people I can share who are way better about talking about accessibility in video games than me. I'll link their contacts. But I looked on the forums this isn't the first time this has been mentioned and I won't be quiet about it.

I think everyone agrees that we need Accessibility Settings, I don't know why we don't have any.

Accessibility would be wonderful, as nice as the new new auras are, I would love them even more if they weren't freaking RED.

I know I am making the point for color blind mode but it goes so much further than that.

BHVR seems to just absolutely refuse to add any accessibility options, and as far as I know, have never even addressed the topic formally even though it's been such a huge complaint over the years. It's honestly embarassing, I'm not a programmer but I can't imagine adding something like colorblind options would be a huge and difficult task.

As a non-colorblind player, I'd happily use recolors for an advantage on my killers.

Even civilization 6 have a colorblind mode.

We've been asking for at the VERY least a colorblind option since LITERALLY 2016.
BHVR doesn't give a crap; HOWEVER, they need to realize, it's 2020. If you're going to blatantly ignore those with disabilities, you can get cancelled over that. So they better hop to it.

Not much longer, most people are reversing that. The last cancel was canceled and he raised $20k USD out of it, actually.

I think they've said in the past they didn't want to add colorblind mode because people might be able to use it for an unfair advantage or some other crock of #########. Which I totally don't agree with btw, even if it DID give people and advantage it still needs to be ######### added. (As well as an option to turn off V-Sync imo, which isn't accessibility, but does help some people's computers not turn into a blazing fireball)

Well there NVIDIA filters all around reddit when it comes to DBD screenshots now, guess most players who wanted an unfair advantage didn't waited for a colorblind mode.

@Kamisguide You can try to use Nvidia Freestyle filter.
I checked and it has colorblind filter.... I hope that it's help you and your friends

We need to keep this topic pressing. I ask that we keep the conversation going. Bringing this up on twitter, on their streams. The devs need to know that these features are extremely important to a lot of people. I posted links to people who are way more intelligent than I am who can help. https://twitter.com/AbleGamers is a place that focuses on these topics. I'm going to keep posting and asking until I see this on their road map. These features will take time and that is understandable. But they need to be a priority. Again this isn't just about color blind mode. This is about making your game as accessible as possible to the players who want to play.

I want this for console so bad. If i could lower graphic settings for a better frame rate i would do it every time. Id rather the game be played better than look better.
