MS Flight Sim makes me sick, as does any driving game or any game where locomotion involves the view moving without associated real-world movement unless teleportation is used.
I can play Beat Saber, PokerStars VR, Zombie Training Simulator, Gorn, etc., for literally hours at a time and feel fine.
But in a racing game, as soon as the car starts moving, even at only 5 mph, I get nauseous. Same in MS Flight Sim. I don't have to be doing crazy maneuvers to feel sick, just taxiing makes me sick.
This is pretty much the norm for most people. If virtual world movement matches real world movement, you're fine. But as soon as there's a mismatch, that's where motion sickness begins.
One of these days, I'll try taking motion sickness medication beforehand and see if it helps.
I’m the same as you and I tried taking motion sickness medication and it did absolutely nothing for me. Maybe you’ll be luckier, but I think some of us just aren’t made for VR.
FWIW I get motion sick easily in real life too, so I think I’m just screwed. I really wanted to play GT7 VR on PS5, but it was an absolute nonstarter unfortunately.
