Motion Sickness ---- YES, very good point.
It sounds funny, but it is something that most people experience, at least a little, and after some time their brain gets used to it. I found for me personally, just having a fan running helped. I would get hot, and that exacerbated things. After a few weeks, I haven't had an issue since minus a few specific titles. Hot Dogs horse shoes and hand grenades (Yes, that is a title, and a good one for some) makes me sick. 100% of the time. I literally just cannot play it.
I kind of eased my way in, and stopped if I got sick. I guess I wasn't too bad, and a little determined lol. There were a few times when I tried to push through it ... didn't work lol. I never got bad sick, but a couple times I did need to just stop for the night and go watch TV or something. Taking a break goes a long ways. Even now, I generally take my headset off between races for the boring load in iRacing etc. But YES - 1000% motion sickness in VR is very real! Conversely, motion also makes for a lot of fun watching people stand up on any of the free roller coaster games. NOT that I recommend it, as it could turn someone off of VR...but, man is it fun to watch someone try to stand up never being in VR before lol. (To be candid...my first attempt, I stumbled around so bad I set down lol. Apparently the older you are, the more locked in on physics your brain is...)
