and nobody thought to look into it?

Anything accessibility related is merely glanced over at best to drum up good press for these corporations. They love to put it in promo material and act like they're at the spearfront, but almost every step to make games more accessible are first taken by indenpendent developers, modders and hobby engineers.

Simply put, it's not as important to them as they claim it is.
