Who here has an Oculus?

It's all those twists and turns and the fast play at the same time that does it. I just hope it goes away so I can enjoy the game fully.

Yes , but you have to train your brain. Physical exercise helps. Try jumping, running or swinging, also martial artists have lower amounts of motion sickness.

Youre getting motion sickness because you are untrained.

seer does, maybe you two can have an experience! lol

share a moment so to speak! lol

Thank you for the advice...okay I was going to research the exercise games as well. I will start there. So you have train for the Oculus? Damn...okay lol

lol

Oh yeah very funny...I'll pass :P

My son and I were trying to find very scary games and we decided on dreadhalls...meh it's okay...

He started telling me something about steam games having the scariest games...but I guess you need to do some thing special ie set up I don't know.

Which ones do you guys recommend?

have you looked for one that gives you the boyfriend experience? lol

The walking dead saints and sinners,creepy!!

I researched The Blair Witch and The exorcist...would love to hear from people who played these games. What we are looking for is a game with a lot of jump scares and whatnot...dread halls is like okay then...open the next door...fill my lamp...oh look there some scary dude...you have to keep looking at him...oh no I'm dead...

Let me ask you how long do you stay sick when the motion sickness hits you while playing games with the VR glasses?
I had the Sony PSVR and I read it's different from real motion sickness, which goes away pretty fast when e.g. you leave the boat.
It will stay with you for many hours even after you have stopped playing.
It may sound weird, but at least in my case it was true. I was still sick for many hours after I have stopped playing.

I also got the "leg lamp" I mean the full blown frigging leg lamp from the Christmas story...I couldn't believe it...It's like who has this? lol and now it's a must it has to be put in the LR window next year...yep...I am living the movie guys...fun times.

No...I want to have fun...



:P

You played it? Yeah I was wondering about that one as well.

About 5-10 minutes...then I'm cool...perhaps if I push myself on a game a bit longer...but never hours. I mean it's weird because you would think that like I would get sick while viewing the Everest VR but nothing...I was like whoa...

Yeah,if your looking for jumpscares,go for it!!

Thanks for the advice...I will try it...have you tried dreadhalls? What do you think...mind you I have not gotten too far but...

I own an oculus rift as well as an oculus quest vr. Even playstation vr.

And I am afraid to tell you. No it doesnt.

I have been vr gaming off and on for about 2 years now. Certain games make.me so.nauseous I just have to not play certain games. Roller coasters are not an issue with me, but many fast paced shooters and stuff like boneworks.... good grief!!!

I do have an Oculus, as well as an Index and a Pimax 5,000. (Valve Index is the best over all system right now, but Oculus is a great starting point. The Pimax has the best field of view and graphics, of course.)

There are some tricks to not feeling nauseous in VR that I have picked up over the last year or so.

1. Actually move your body and head to turn, whenever possible. Real movement means no sickness from it. 100% of the time.

2. If you have to use the controls to move, doing so in a forward and back ward configuration is always fine. Smooth turns and moving left and right are things that will make you sick, almost instantly.

So use the snap turn option! It's a bit immersion breaking, but you do get used to it.

3. You do get your "VR Legs" after about ten hours or so. Most of that is in learning what not to do, that makes you feel ill.

4. If you start to feel sick, stop immediately, instead of pushing through.

5. Some games are designed better than others. If they keep making you feel sick, find a different game or experience to partake in! The newer things tend to be better than the older ones, as developers are learning a lot about what makes a good VR experience.

Clearly, VR is a young technology. It's growing in popularity and as it advances, will be a greater portion of many peoples lives. I hope this information helps! The most important part of this is that you have fun.

no free stuff? lol

Remember to blink or you’ll find your eyes dry out quickly. VR is great but it’s good to take breaks frequently and like others have said, you’ll get used to it the more you play. Half-life Alyx is good if you want to try a scary game.

Elite Dangerous is amazing for sense of scale. But you really need a flight stick to enjoy it.

Lone Echo is also a great space game. The space ones give you the expansive experience that you can’t experience anywhere else.

Google Earth is pretty fun too.

Well I do appreciate your honesty. Yeah that Dash Dash game is the worst one that I own because it's like omg I'm like in a Mario cart game lmao...and like there are these loops that you go around and I'm like oh my god I'm actually going around this loop and it's just fast paced...yeah I'm not going to keep torturing myself if it doesn't get any better...but I will still try what the AC said with the exercising games.

I got one for Christmas as well. I am a martial artist and train every day , I too experienced some vertigo afterwards . I have the saints and sinners game and have put in a few 2 hour sessions followed by some saber swinging in Vader Immortal. For the first day or two I felt some noticeable discomfort directly after playing . It wasnt long , maybe a couple minutes . I don’t get uneasy anymore directly after , but I have noticed a floating feeling while walking every once in a while . There can be some neck issues over time too ! The headsets are heavy and can cause some soreness near the top of your spine and base of your skull.
What an amazing system though ! I LOVE the swordplay in Vader immortal and am looking forward to purchasing some HEMA style games . Swords , shields and spears , sounds fun to me !

Oh Wow...thank you very much for this AC! I didn't know there were other systems out there lol How much are those other ones?

No,havent tried it.I play mostly simulations,formula,fighterplane,that kind.Half life Alyx was excellent,there is a part in it you would like.!!

Diamonds aren't free :P

Remember to blink? Okay thank you. I am looking up Half-life Alyx now :)
