I would caution against demoing Hover Junkers to first timers, especially without an explicit and careful discussion of nausea first. It is the only game anyone has listed thus far that has 'unnatural' movement, which for me at least, causes extremely unpleasant nausea that lasts multiple hours after removing the headset.
- secure 10y agoGood to know. Hasn’t been a problem for the people who tried it at my place yet, but I’ll keep it in mind.
- shostack 10y agoWhich is a shame because that is one I really want to play once I get a headset. Has there been much others solving for this type of motion sickness in VR where it isn't just latency/performance related?
- saurik 10y agoWhile maybe these issues can be slightly mitigated, the underlying problem is the same as getting seasick or getting sick while trying to read in the back of a car; I imagine the state-of-the-art solution is "Dramamine" ;P.
- shostack 10y agoFunny you mention that...my current approach for games that make me nauseous that I can't fix with FOV settings has basically been ginger gum and lots of fresh air breaks.
- jnicholasp 10y agoMarijuana is good for both nausea and the sense of wonder.
