Help for disabled players

I had two strokes in June, and I'm trying to jump back into the game, but I'm having trouble with both eyesight and coordination. I'd like to keep playing and be part of the destiny community, but there don't appear to be any options to make the game more playable for someone like me. It's difficult to aim, so I end up dying while playing content that wasn't very difficult for me prior to my accident. It's incredibly demoralizing and disheartening. I'm not sure what can be done to help a player like me, but I miss being able to fully enjoy the game. I even got kicked out of my clan while I was in the hospital.

    Hmm. Eyesight and coordination? I'm sure enough practice will help over time. But most important is patience with oneself. Lots of it. Since a good number of players like to run through things, I would see if you can find a better community to help get started, so there isn't discouragement from the game indirectly, and having a player or two with you, just talking and such, might be encouraging, too. [spoiler]Also look up "avenger controller Xbox/ps4" for whatever preferred console you might have. It's something designed for FPS games. I don't know if this works with the PS5 controllers. The appearance looks clunky and it has a learning curve to use, but it's meant to make the user more responsive/competitive in FPS games. Maybe the design would help with coordination initially, and then you could progress to remove it when comfortable? Or not. Some folks like it.[/spoiler] That's all I can suggest. ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯
