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.

Edited by SpoonieEzMode: 10/11/2022 6:19:15 AMHi there; I used this game for cognitive therapy and retraining motor skills when I first started playing. The amount of times I logged out to sob after ten minutes of frustration....yeah, I see you. I hear you. Controller was impossible - I have stormtrooper aim on a console, ugh. A computer feels more forgiving because I could adapt my tech for my own issues. Maybe that would be a thought? Annoying but a possibility. Even if you don't have all the expansions if you switch systems, you could maybe experiment with some of the free content, see how the controls feel and if it makes a difference before splashing out. I basically chose one activity (Wellspring) and I did it over and over again, trying to learn how my hands worked, how to process the information, how to get the muscle memory in and adapt my playing. I toyed with builds, found things that worked even if it wasn't what other people did, and worked my niche - which is mostly running around and saving everyone's butt when they get overwhelmed. If I may: please be patient with yourself. You are in recovery, and recovery takes time. Everything is going to feel very very off, and if you ever want anyone to play slowly with you as you try to figure out where your depth perception and rhythm is now you're trying to relearn, hit me up.
