Is classic Handicapped friendly?

Is classic handicapped friendly? For someone who only has one hand to play with? Etc.

If not, what can one handed players do to make playing wow easier to play without foot pedals, only one hand.

I dont think anygame that requires a keyboard and mouse to use is friendly for someone who lost a hand. It's sad but its the truth.
It's more friendly to someone missing a foot than a hand.
In my experience there are plenty of handicapped people playing wow.
Logitech G600 mouse has many many many buttons. Use discord for voice chat.

One hand away

No worries. You will get around. Vanilla is about group play. You need help just ask for it. I am sure people will help you out

lol
I, actually, have an IRL Friend with only one arm. You just have to be creative :)
Well, it'll be difficult. Maybe try playing a warlock or a hunter on a PVE server? Having to move and use abilities at the same time is going to be one of your biggest problems, so a ranged class with pets is probably best.

razor naga MMO mouse. Key everything to your mouse and you can play with one hand.

Most vanilla specs in PvE only use like 2 buttons, so yeah, set your important buttons to mouse buttons and you're fine.

Here's a question. Why would it be any different for classic as opposed to retail?

Retail is super ez.
In case you really are soft in the head...

I know there are gaming mouses that can be programmed to do just about everything a keyboard/mouse can do. You may have to sacrifice some space that would normally be used for macros, but I would guess it could be done.

This is not a Blizzard problem.

I’ve never had to look for an adapted computer before, but I’m positive some company can modify a computer so that it can operate with one hand as flawlessly as regular computers.

I am betting you are quite intelligent though...

You are asking in the wrong place, but if you really do only have one hand, you already knew that.

now if that were only true,lol
lots of people play one handed on rp servers, they usually around goldshire inn *fizzle*

but on a more serious note I believe mouse button 4 or 5 was default to autorun since forever (can rebind it too)

also In classic "clicking" was something a lots of people would do, click target, click spell on action bar very accessible no special hardware required!

might suggest a hunter or warlock though since having a pet hold aggro might make things more manageable

good luck

Yea, it was my thought exactly that most of the people in the Goldshire Inn on MG play one handed most of the time. On the other hand (so to speak) they're not exactly playing the same game, though.

What if he has only left hand? we have a problem...
there was a thing called "left-handed devices", but that joystick was quite not good enough for a mouse cursor
Yes it is friendly to someone without a hand. I have a mouse with action buttons on the side and when I cut off part of my finger I was playing nost and had no issue playing it with one hand and it took me all of 30 mins to get use to it.

But honestly I wouldn’t play something like rogue or melee classes tbh they can be tough to postition. But if you have been missing the hand for awhile you may be better than I was
