Plenty of online games that don’t do that. Hell, you can play chess online. Any turn-based game shouldn’t have fast-moving graphics.

irmadlad@lemmy.world 3 days ago I have a seizure condition brought on by a traumatic brain injury, and really intense, fast moving graphics will cause me to roll around on the floor like I’m trying out a new breakdance move, and eat my tongue. LOL I used to play Cities: Skyline which was a really in depth game when you really get into it kind of like Minecraft, which I used to be heavily into.

True, and I do play chess. When I said ‘I wish I could play games’ what I meant was all the really cool stuff with intense graphics. Sorry.

As someone physically capable of playing games with the blinky shiny lights, they aren’t all they’re cracked up to be. My top two games atm are Manor Lords and MENACE, both of which should be perfectly accessible to you.

Maybe there’s some kind of filter software that could limit the visual whiplash. Like you can adjust brightness and contrast on the monitor, but maybe there’s some other software that could add motion blur to fast changes, kind of like volume leveling in audio. Even if a game doesn’t support it, you might be able to use something like ReShade or some system software. Just spitballing, you know your body better than I do.

My hesitation in experimentation is the fact that seizures can be fatal. SUDEP as it is known. Plus, when I have a seizure, I’m down for 3 or 4 days. It’s that mentally and physically exhausting. So, I will just be envious of all you gamers and live vicariously. LOL But I really would like to play.

So you can’t play minecraft anymore? Not even by changing the accessibility settings? You have my condolences <3

Shit, that’s terrible. Here’s hoping that one day your grey matter can rewire itself in a way that allows you to enjoy games or blinking lights again without side effects
Nah bro…no worries. That’s life. My number came up on the 'ol Wheel Of Fortune. Shit happens. You either learn to be flexible or get snapped off at the ankles.
