It would mean the world to me if you stopped by the stream because Naughty Dog has done so much for blind accessibility and participating in this stream is the least I can do after the countless hours of entertainment the TLOU games have brought me and the rest of the blind gaming community.

There will be giveaways, interviews with key Naughty Dog employees who worked on No Return, and hopefully I'll complete an entire run!

RossMinor - Game Accessibility @rossminor.bsky.social · 25/09/2026
My portion of the stream will take place at 2:00 PM PDT on Naughty Dog's Twitch and will be centered around the accessibility in The Last of Us 2 No Return, which is still one of my favorite parts of TLOU to this day!

It is my pleasure to announce that on September 28th, I will be joining @naughtydog.com at their studio to celebrate The Last of Us Day and participate in a charity stream to raise money for AbleGamers! www.twitch.tv/NaughtyDog #Blind #Accessibility #TheLastOfUs
Promotional graphic for The Last of Us Day 2026 charity livestream. On the left is the official key art: young Ellie from Part I, lit by a warm orange sunset, faces older, battle-worn Ellie from Part II against a stormy blue sky, with Joel and Abby walking toward the viewer in the lower corners. Text across the art reads "The Last of Us Day 2026, Charity Livestream, September 28th." On the right, against a dark background, is a circular headshot of Ross, a smiling man with short light brown hair and a mustache, wearing a denim shirt. Below it the text reads "Join me on the stream, Ross, twitch.tv/NaughtyDog."

one of the funniest things about my interactions with Ross is that every time I talk to him, something like this happens ME: working on anything cool recently? ROSS: ...uhhh yeah like five things but I can't tell anyone about them yet incredible news man

I am so honored that I was able to work on this project and that @insomniac.games trusted me with my feedback. It's hard to believe ten years ago I was making videos about game accessibility in my high school bedroom and now I'm out in LA doing the thing! Thank you all for supporting my journey <3

Now that #WolverinePS5 has dropped, I can announce that I consulted on the #blind #accessibility! Join me at 4:00 PM PST where I will be playing the final product for the first time! I truly believe it's a step forward for blind gaming :) www.twitch.tv/RossMinor #Playstation #Gamedev
A group photo of five people standing in a recreation of the Princess Bar from Wolverine. All are smiling at the camera. The bar sits under a wooden pergola frame. Hanging from the top beam is a large glowing pink and purple neon sign reading 公主酒吧, Chinese for "Princess Bar." Red paper lanterns hang around the frame, and string lights and pinned-up paper cover the dark ceiling. Behind the bar, backlit shelves hold rows of glowing blue and green liquor bottles, with a small white beckoning-cat figurine on top. Tall wooden bar stools stand in front of the counter, which is partly covered by a red and white plaid cloth. Sam is wearing the Wolverine claws and holding them up to Ross on his left, where Ross is holding his fist up to the claws. Brian stands next to Ross and has his arm around him and Brianna is at the end.

Big thank you to #Netflix Games and Tara Voelker for inviting me to speak for #GAAD yesterday! It was such a pleasure spending the day with the team. And to any studios looking for a speaker, feel free to reach out!!
Ross standing and smiling on a high-rise balcony overlooking rolling green and brown hills. He is wearing a blue button-up shirt with Gyarados and Magicarp Pokemon on it in a wave--like patern. In the background is the red N Netflix logo on an adjacent building. Ross smiling and laughing slightly from the side on the same balcony where he rests is hand on the railing.A large Demogorgon statue with a flower-shaped head stands indoors.
The head has five thick, red petals, each covered in many pointed, cream-colored tooth- or seed-like shapes, all surrounding a deep black center that looks like an open mouth. The creature’s body is fleshy pink with a muscular, sinewy texture. It has long arms ending in three large, clawed fingers and thick legs with big toes tipped with pale claws, standing on a round black base. Next to it Ross stands and smiles while giving the shaka gesture with his right hand.

The goal of this website is to be run by the community and for the community. My intent is not to "replace" other valuable resources, but instead connect them altogether; it's surprising what kind of obscure guides and documents exist in the blind gaming space. Currently the wiki supports:

Haven’t used Bluesky in forever, but apparently the posting page on iOS is completely inaccessible currently. So many companies are taking huge steps back with accessibility and it’s sad. I’m doing well though! Better than ever!

First Microsoft absolutely destroyed the accessibility of the Outlook calendar, forcing most Blind people to switch to a different alternative. Now that I’ve gotten comfortable with Google Calendar, looks like they’re on a mission to do the same as Microsoft. Can we please not right now 😅
