I actually stumbled upon this game by chance while Googling. I've always been interested in team management games, so I occasionally search online to see if there are similar games to play.

 

When I first discovered the game, I felt like it had the potential to be a purely text-based game that visually impaired users could play independently. Such games are really rare nowadays, and most importantly, it had a fully localized interface in Chinese, which instantly piqued my interest.

 

Visually impaired users mainly operate smartphones and computers through screen reader systems. Although screen reader systems have become very convenient, there is still much room for improvement in handling images. Therefore, as I mentioned earlier, web games like BasketPulse, which are almost purely text-based, are very friendly to visually impaired players, which is probably its biggest advantage. As for disadvantages, I really haven't thought of any yet. Jokingly speaking, it might make visually impaired users unable to resist spending money because there are too few games to play, and it's a game that both visually impaired and normal users can participate in.

 

The biggest difference should be that I use screen reader systems to operate the game. Usually, it's better to use a computer than a smartphone for operation, but I don't know if this is the same as regular users.

 

Currently, the main focus of this season is to try to save as much funds as possible while cultivating my franchise player. The biggest problem I encountered was feeling that my experience was not enough, and I didn't know which funds should be spent and which could be saved. Sometimes, I struggle with whether the franchise player should be a starter because he can easily become targets for opponents. Fortunately, everyone in the Taiwan Discord channel is very helpful. Although I was initially troubled by the overwhelming amount of messages in the Discord community, many people are willing to discuss with me through private messages, and I am really grateful for their assistance.

 

I think the best thing about BasketPulse is the comprehensive trading system and free market mechanism. Especially when buying players, besides looking at the players' RT values, you also need to look at the statistics of the players in other leagues, which really gives a sense of managing a team.

 

I'm not sure if this is a problem that only visually impaired users will encounter, but I'll mention it anyway. When looking at post-game statistics, it's impossible to determine the main positions of players from the statistics of the game, and you must watch the live broadcast of the game to see for yourself. I hope this part can be made more intuitive.

 

Actually, because the discussion messages in the Discord channel were a bit messy before, I gave up for a while and thought I would just play on my own. It was only because I really wanted to play this game well that I tried to use the game's private messaging function to contact my teacher, and I really got a lot of help. If there are other disabled people participating in this game, I sincerely recommend that you bravely ask questions if you encounter any problems. This way, you can play better and enjoy more fun.

Waldemar235 has interviewed WL4.4 team manager Rarz09 about his gaming and basketball experience.

How long have you been in the game? What features do you like best?

I have been in the game since season 92. I come from a game where I was there for a long time and then it closed. And the things I like most about BasketPulse is that it has everything to do, trades, marketing, direct messages, national teams, etc.

What would you like to bring to the game to make it even more attractive?

I think that as it is, it is very good, what I would do would be to try not to touch the engine too much, since there are times where you see many updates in a row and that can have a negative influence, both for the game and for us managers.

What goals do you set for this season and the next 5 seasons?

The goal I have for this season is to try to achieve promotion, because of how it is developing, it seems complicated, but we have to try anyway, if it is achieved great and if not, we will have to see how we continue.

For the next 5 seasons, I don't know, I like to set short-term goals and see how the season develops, but obviously if you can advance quickly, the better XD.

Tell us about your team, tactical aspects and best players?

Well, for this season we have a great team, although in the same WL that I am in there are also very good teams, I think I am quite well balanced both on the perimeter and in the low post and that gives me options to vary my tactics, I don't have a certain fixed tactic, but I try to adapt to the rival.

Best players, I don't think there is one who is decisive in the team, although if I had to say one, it would be Chino Daming Xu, I got it thanks to Sergio de Cai Zaragoza, who in fact I owe him a favor, I could also name Walter Barrios, Danilo Zampetti, or the Ukrainian Dmitrів.

Has the game helped you find new friends, who from the community do you communicate with, what countries?

Yes, of course, I have several colleagues with whom I talk, above all, not about something specific, and that helps me a lot to have the team that I have today, I could name almost all the Argentines, San Francis, Cinco Mancos, Iron Maiden, and also many Spaniards, like Xeres Club Deportivo, Artica Slayers and yourself Los Reyes del Vitebsk. In fact, all of them helped me in the first steps in the game and I thank them for it.

What are your best memories of the game that brought great emotions?

That match was when I achieved my first promotion to WL5, after winning the semifinals in a series that ended in the last game.

Which team do you follow as a manager, and who do you learn from?

I follow several of them, the ones I mentioned before, I follow all of the Argentinians and several Spaniards too, who are very good guys, if I had to say one who has taught me a lot, it is Artica Slayers, txetx manager, I have known him for a long time. a long time.

Let's take a little break from the game. What are your favorite basketball team and player. Why?

My favorite team is San Lorenzo de Almagro, Argentine Team, both in Soccer and Basketball, and my favorite player is Nikola Jokic from the Denver Nuggets, the best XD I love you Nikola

What advice would I give to the game administrators for my part?

The only thing I could tell you is that thank you for a game like BasketPulse, complete in all aspects, and also as I said before, try not to touch or update the game engine too often.

Let them continue with these types of contests to earn credits, since many of us (including myself) cannot access them and this is a good way to do it.
