Over the many years I’ve tried to get into gaming (Dark Souls, Cats, Valorant, Hogwarts, Portal, etc), I’ve always backed out due to motion sickness. I’m getting really tired of never truly enjoying any gaming experience so it’d be nice to have some non-motion-sickness-inducing games to try out.

    Make sure that your framerate and especially frame timings are consistent and high (low for frame timings). I experienced motion sickness myself when this wasn’t the case.

      Most games aforementioned, I’ve locked my fps at 75 so the game runs smooth. Perhaps it wasn’t high enough? Anyhow, I don’t think I’ll be running a higher framerate due to limitations in my current PC. Not thinking of getting an upgrade anytime soon though. Unless I get into resource heavy games. Thanks for your suggestion, I’ll keep that in mind

        Does your monitor support that framerate? 75 fps is not a typical framerate. Maybe things are getting out of sync

          Perhaps I’ve remembered it incorrectly. But yes, I think I was running some of the aforementioned games at around 75. Maybe you’re right, I can’t say for sure though.
