, I'm interested in this. I know a number of people, myself included that are all in their 30's or older, that experience dizziness and nausea when playing first-person titles. For myself, if I haven't played such a game for say 6 months and I go and try to, it makes me sick. I need to use anti-nausea pills (like you use when traveling) and "Sea Bands" that go on my wrists, for a while. After a few days though of playing these games, I can do it without medication or the sea bands and I'm FINE. Other people I know, don't get over it at all and constantly have to take other steps, if they are playing FPS titles. So I guess I'm lucky that mine goes away with time. As long as I periodically play an FPS game, I can keep myself to where I won't feel ill. But if I stop for a few months and then go back, I have to go thru the sickness again. Is it known what causes this? I thought it might be something related to age or blood pressure (and maybe it is for some), but also perhaps the fact that most of us didn't play games on huge screens like our tv's until a couple of decades ago so this just SEEMS like a new thing?
Very curious what you know about this. I've wondered how I would react to VR because of this. I figured it's hopefully the same and I'll be able to handle without issues.
