Is the stuffed ear thing like when a plane changes altitude? That makes people nauseous? I used to dive a lot so I got this a lot but I have never heard of people getting ill because of it. Maybe it is a different feeling but from reading the comments it is like that? I am weird though; I can play VR games forever (I played Skyrim VR for 6 hours straight last christmas while my friend who was over this week had to vomit after 15 minutes) and I like the popping feeling in airplanes. I also do phone calls with full noise cancellation on my Bose 35 headphones for hours and do not recognise the feeling from any description here. I do suffer badly from car sickness but not any other movement I tried. Diving + playing in a metal band when I was young really messed with my hearing (bad tinnitus etc); maybe that is related?
