    And the timing of GCD's in this game allows for 2+ second reprieve between actions that causes a lower impact on the hands. That isn't to say there aren't people out there for whom even that isn't painful. But for me personally I can do Savage just fine because it's a dance. I know when to press my buttons, know I can let my hands rest between casts, and as a SCH while there is oGCD weaving to be done it isn't so monumentally overwhelming that I don't get those brief moments of respite that add up over the course of a night. Still need to brace my hands with athletics tape and maybe pop a pain killer on particularly bad nights, but unlike this QTE I don't need to stop playing afterward to recuperate.

    Honestly incidents like this make me wish more gaming companies had people who experience chronic pain of some variety in their quality control process. Because this should have been an easy catch and thus could have been fixed with one of the many suggestions that have been tossed around in this thread.

    To be honest, we do not know whether the developers are testing their game solutions for disabled people or not. It would be really nice if they test this before launching the next patch.

    I roughly understand what they were trying to show with this solution. But, unfortunately, instead of uniting people with one game goal, even the usual discussion of this problem leads to conflict.

    This is a wonderful game in which most of the story is about friendship and overcoming difficulties. And it would be great if the developers took this step, helping players who, for some reason, find it difficult and painful to perform QTE, simply by stopping to punish the entire group due to the failure of one person.

    I know they did hire an accessibility consultant in January this year and an entire team in last May. But I wouldn't be able to say if they were consulted on this issue. I know I have written to the Accessibility team regarding this issue, but I'm sure if more people wrote it would support and strengthen our cause. So here is the link to contact them.

    I also wrote a report. Hope it will help to solve the problem.
