Accessibility Notes
While some text is low in contrast, the contrast is generally good. The text, however, is often very small, and cannot be adjusted (nor can any elements of the HUD in general be resized). there are several flashing effects both in and out of combat, including in the opening cutscene. there is a slight motion blur effect.
During stages, you can generally always see every enemy, so navigation isn't an issue. Outside of missions, you can view a map that shows where to go.
Provided you can read the small subtitles, sound isn't necessary.
