ROBLOX is great for all ages; 10 , 14, etc etc. It isn't gender biased or unfair, it's for everyone.
Despite this, I feel ROBLOX hasn't really made a big effort to make the game more suitable towards people with disabilities. I'm not saying they haven't tried, or they haven't thought about it, so I thought of a way to make it more bolder that "ROBLOX does think about this!"

My Idea
-------
ROBLOX should have an in-game option for subtitles on / off for people who can't hear very well in games that use audio to lven up their games, so that deaf people can also enjoy this feature too. This would help ROBLOX because it would increase how friendly and user-based the interface is, whilst also appealing more suitable to parents who are concerned.

Subtitles should appear in a colour/font chosen by the game creator whilst configuring their games on the website. There should also be the in-game option to choose the subtitle language as well. The subtitles are auto-generated, but the person who made the audio can input what the subtitles say in game.

A drawback to this idea is that when people creating audio put in rude/wrong words for the subtitles [ E.g a song about cookies, but all the subtitles say is UR A NOOB HAHA etc ]. But, the audio could be reported, but it may still probably be a problem faced.

If an audio is an ambience, then the owner must describe the noises when configuring their audio via website.
Eg. A sound of wolves howling. The description would be [ Wolves howling loudly ]
If the audio was an ambience, the owner would put in the lyrics.

Yes, there probably could be a problem with the subtitles, and I'm aware people are capable of scripting them, but not every owner of every game would add them to their games.
Please add any suggestions below~ ty for reading!

[ Please note I'm not very great at posting threads, and try to make any criticism constructive, please. Thanks for reading! :-) ]
