PS4 Console and game (Last of Us 2) initial Notes

Buying the PS4 in Australia results in no Text To Speech being available even if you set Region/Language to the US.  Very disappointing.

As no Text To Speech at all on the PS4, unable to setup the console independently, had to get sighted assistance.

Installing the Last of Us 2, as no Text To Speech, had to get sighted assistance.

Enabling Text To Speech for Last of Us 2, required sighted assistance.  However, once on, could access Options menu.

As a large number of Audio Queues within Last of Us 2, getting used to playing the game with the controller, moving around etc.  However, started to feel comfortable with the game after a few hours.

Disappointed that within the game, there is no actual description of your environment: eg in a shop, warehouse, first etc, you  just seem to follow a line where you through Audio Queues fight monsters, move, get items etc.  Still, not bad at all smile.
