Accessing EA's Jedi survivor is very challenging for left-handed individuals and those with disabilities.
If the default setting doesn't allow keyboard remapping, that's one concern. If you continue to ignore this as an accessibility problem for some, it crosses into discrimination. I think lacking such options is even more problematic for those with genuine disabilities. You might not realize it, but whenever a left-handed person brings up accessibility issues, they often face ridicule. It's not as severe as physical impairments, but creating barriers for left-handers in design effectively turns their challenge into a real disadvantage. The choice of controls can vary by game, but the right arrow is usually my preferred option for jumping or dodging.
I rely on unconventional controls. I face no discrimination. This is simply inefficient coding. There are numerous aspects that don't support non-standard solutions. It isn't deliberate bias. It's poor design choices. Some unskilled developers manually coded keys, and the game generated most of its revenue. It's not financially sound to keep high-level executives on past projects when better opportunities exist for greater profits.
