HAH! That's so quotable. :-D Are you in the game industry, Gizz, by the way? You sound like it... :) “Accessibility is not accessible.”

But, you nailed it when you said that accessibility is not a concept that is ... accessible :) It's a science just as game metrics are. True, but at least they started to talk about it.

I think the problem, though, is that accessibility is really not that easy to do. I've seen a lot of games confuse accessibility with simplicity, for instance; or thinking anything can be made accessible with a clever tutorial tacked at the end of the production cycle... So it's no wonder everyone is still talking about it. :) You’re right, Gizz… I think the problem, though, is that accessibility is really not that easy to do.

Those who are not yet understanding this concept might find the end of their pocket not so far ahead as the elite crowd that form the hardcore gamer public is no longer big enough to sustain todays game budget. Of course, said budget is subject to another discussion :S Accessibility is the subject of the hour in most game developper sphere.
