Default Voice comentaries and new clients..

I was playing the demo Last night and noticed something really interesting. If this game had voice-over (recorded comentary) and a few modifications were made to the input system (more keyboard input) this game would open up a whole new market... The Blind. This game does not require the player to respond to visual effects on screen, so it would be ideal for a blind person to enjoy.

Not to mention that having voice commentary during the arena battles would greatly improve the games atmosphere.

I know that getting voice actors would be expensive, (one narator and two colorful comentary voices) but I'm sure that a project like that could get some kind of gouvernment funding. heck, adapting this game for the blind would even be newsworthy and perhaps boost sales.

Also, the model for Coliseum could also be applied to other sports simulations. You might have found the ideal medium to bring interesting games to the blind.

Just a thought, Have a great day, Cheers!
