Kino games that make me sick

I love both games but everytime I play them, I start to have headaches and sickness, and I don't know why. The colors? the camera? How I can fix it?

I can play other games for hours but I can't play this games for more than 15 min before I get nausea and want to vomit.

    My mum has a problem where she can't play any first-person games without feeling really nauseous. She discovered this years ago when she tried to play Goldeneye 64 with me when I was a kid, but it's the same with any first-person game for her. She can play hours of third-person games just fine so it's definitely something to do with the first-person perspective specifically. Maybe you have the same problem.

      I had the same problem, when playing S.T.A.L.K.E.R first time. Head bobbing made me sick, I spent next 2 hours in bed+pills lmao.

        yeah, disabling head bob is mandatory for me. dumbest "muh immurshun" nonsense ever conceived, along with dynamic headgear overlays.

    Do you play a lot of modern shooters/FPS? You might just be more used to actual fluid controls & movement, NV & 3 have always had dogshit gameplay even for their time but age certainly hasn't helped either

      I don't have problems with other FPS, for example I play TF2 (which is older than F3/NV) a lot and nothing happens, so Idk.

      I have a similiar problem with these games, and I couldn't point my finger on it. Every time I try to replay this games I quit after 30 minutes with some kind of frustration, partially due to the engine feeling completely weird to me, especially the movement feels unnatural and makes my brain churn. And then because imo these games have surprisingly low replayability value. Same with Skyrim, too

      >You might just be more used to actual fluid controls & movement
      Probably this, but I'm not sure.

      Don’t listen to the baiting moron above me.

      I get this too, and it’s usually because of certain engines. Bethesda engines sometimes do that if it’s for long periods, but the HL2 engine is a doozy. I couldn’t play Portal for more than 10 minutes at a time. I think it’s something to do with how your brain/eyes try to resolve information in a false 3D environment

      >usually because of certain engines.
      I think this too, because I have Medal of Honor: Pacific Assault and after 10 min I get nausea. Which is sad, because I find the story really good.

      How I can fix it? I knwo that with Medal of Honor I can't, but what about F3/NV? Which mods I could use?

        You are using the stutter remover, right? Maybe it's the 64hz bug that is fricking with you.

      Had the same problem with Half Life 2. Started having some sort of motion sickness while playing. Was sick for the rest of the day.

      God that reminds me of when I first played HL2, it was my first PC fps and I'd only had little CRT TVs before, so sitting with my face pressed to a 20" monitor definitely didn't help. I couldn't tell you what possessed 14 year old me to keep playing a game that made him wildly ill

    I know my dad gets motion sick because the pip boy actually moves slightly when you're using it. Not sure if it's your problem, but worth considering.

    Maybe, it's the FOV, or the shitty almost static animations when you're moving.

    how do so many people have motion sickness? i knew it was bad in VR because every game has that stupid teleporting and snap turning shit enabled by default, even though i never have a problem even with the vehicle parts in HL2 VR. but you're telling me you get sick with normal games? not even some bouncing off the walls shit like doom eternal, but half-life, portal and stalker? how do you watch movies? how do you walk?

      Dunno why, it started getting worse as I got older. I need glasses so that might help it.

      For me it's something with the pixellated graphics and motion. It's not every game. Deus Ex I had zero problems as a kid, at the same age half life made me throw up after 1 hour. Never happened again very strange.

    I get motion sickness with FPS games too. Most boomer shooters, unreal/unreal 2004, and a few other games that aren't coming to mind. It's almost random as to which games make me feel sick. Half Life 2, Unreal 3, Borderlands, Fallout and many others are all fine. Even Dark Forces: Jedi Knight doesn't trigger it despite it basically being a boomer shooter. It's a type of motion sickness that you're experiencing and scientists don't know the reason why. I'm almost 40, and my bouts of sickness came out of no where around 36 or 37.

        >condolences, anon, you have a 3-4 year old brain tumor
        Lol, no. It usually happens when people stop playing FPS games for a while, and then try to go back. I used to play a bunch of FPS until about 30 or so. I switched to just strategy and turn based games around that time. Coming back from hiatus is when it got triggered for me, which is usually how it works.

        Playing those kinds of games for years conditions your brain and equilibrium to adjust to what you're seeing on screen. If you take a hiatus and then come back, your brain is no longer in that condition and therefore can't be tricked into thinking you're in game. This causes your inner ear and brain to react as if you're actually there, hence why you get motion sick. It's a completely normal and well documented thing. It does happen to varying degrees though. Some people completely lose tolerance, some people lose tolerance to certain environments.

          if it's within your means, maybe try a low flicker monitor.

          can you every regain that same ability to play them again once it is lost? I had to take a break from vidya this past year due to a hand injury and I have had horrible headaches coming back to it. in my case it was some eye problems caused by COVID and now that they have healed it isn't as bad, but I am still more sensitive than I used to be.
