Specific details emerged from a now-deleted July 6 social media post by a senior user researcher for accessibility at ZeniMax Media, who confirmed they were part of the personnel cuts. This development suggests a significant hit to the teams dedicated to making games more accessible. This information comes from reporting by GameSpot.
