    A café is a public place that should accommodate a wide range of guests.

    A work of art doesn’t need the same amount of accessibility. Restricted access might be part of the experience.

    Access to food is more essential than access to niche art.

      There are plenty of places that aren’t essential that are accessible just to be inclusive. A theatre for example.

      I’m not even disabled and I struggle with games without a difficulty slider. I can’t imagine to be actually disabled and excluded just because someone’s ego prevents them from adding a single slider to their game.

        I think it would be illuminating for you to try making a game where the difficulty slowly increases, such as Tetris. Once you’ve done so, add a slider to it so that the difficult does not slowly increase.

        You will find the experience completely different when you play. Difficulty in games isn’t just about accessibility.

        A theater is a social event and experience. Lots of video games are solo experiences. That’s a huge difference. Social events and activities need inclusion much more.

        A dense philosophical book doesn’t need to include a „for dummies“ version. Tarot cards don’t need their meaning printed on them.
