Reply to comment by GonnaNeedMoreSpit in Apple Delays AR Glasses, Plans Cheaper Mixed-Reality Headset by GadnukBreakerOfWrlds

“Hardened soldiers” aren’t any less susceptible to motion sickness. A lot of VR games used to give motion sickness and it’s possible to improve to get rid of it or make people experience it less, they found a performance issue, now they need to go back to try and fix it then test it again.

If everything got scrapped because it didn’t work initially we would have nothing.

Got a vr headset recently and never had any motion sickness in all but one game - so it’s definitely a performance / software issue that can be fixed.

It's also a person thing, I think. Some people in my family can play VR for a long at a time, others start feeling woozy and play in shorter bursts.

I know people who get motion sick playing regular video games on a stationary screen, so it's an inherent flaw of VR/AR.

Certain games make me feel nauseous but most are fine. Its when the screen moves alot with the motion of the characters head. I think it's called camera sway, thankfully a lot of game have the option to switch it off.

I tired a couple game on a vr headset both times I felt very sick within 10 mins. But I also get seasick out at sea so I think it's a me thing. I wonder if the motion sickness tablets work for things like vr or ar headsets?
