I quickly got a very queasy feeling. I suppose that's a testament to how immersive it is. I mean, it's possible I just got sick because I was playing Skyrim but I think it was the VR

I have a vive and after playing a bunch in the first few weeks, it definitely hosed with me out in the world. it screws with your depth perception, and also you get the feeling that you're gonna run into real walls outside the play area even when you're not playing, it's pretty interesting. I quit using my vive cause it legit hurt my neck, it's been in the box for 2 years.

Didn't puke, but I felt all hosed up for almost an hour. Now I play Squadrons and NMS and run around all day with no problems on smooth turning. Occasionally something will get a hitch in my stomach but it goes away quickly. Usually it's doing barrel rolls in my spaceship. Yeah, I got a little demo, "eye of the temple" which cleverly utilizes the 2mx2m space you're supposed to have for vr by having you "walk" onto blocks that move. Even that made me queasy at first. If I had set up a tiny bit more room I would have continued playing but the first few times it sure did make my stomach go "wtf". Clearly more vr will only fix this.

Occasionally something will get a hitch in my stomach but it goes away quickly. Usually it's doing barrel rolls in my spaceship. It can also vary quite a bit by the actual game you're playing. For example, Flight simulators where you've often literally got the whole world spinning all around you tend to be quite a bit more challenging than stuff like Beat Sabre where movement is nice and linear. For me it's Boneworks that always fucks me up. Don't know what it is that does it, I can play pretty much any other VR game just fine, but that one always gives me a splitting headache in 15 minutes flat.

I can normally handle it, but it definitely feels "off" in a way that's tough to describe, compared to something ostensibly similar like Half Life Alyx. The one time I've felt kinda sick from VR was in Boneworks while a bit hungover.

The only VR thing that messes me up is rotating the camera around a 3rd person character. I never really had to get my "VR legs" as it were, and now I miss that fun stomach-lurch feeling and never really get it in VR games. I'm too desensitized.

This is something you might not be able to answer, but for the people who get VR sickness: would you say that the difference between your own body height and the height at which the in-game character is placed has anything to do with it? That is to say, do you experience vertigo more strongly when there is a large disparity between those two things, or would you say that games in general are good about adjusting for the placement of the headset in your own experience? It's just a question I've been asking myself for a while. I'm kind of curious about what throws off some peoples' sense of balance so much when using VR headsets while others aren't affected, and the difference in proportional movement between what happens in the game versus what your body is used to is one of the possible reasons I've been able to think of. There's not exactly much in the way of hard numbers about this kind of thing floating around, though.

I think a lot of it has to do with the way each person’s brain deals with conflicting sensory inputs. I not only can’t play VR, I often get ill viewing first person let’s plays. But I have always had issues with this, to the point where I was getting desensitization treatment in second grade. My husband, by contrast, loves VR, and has never been motion sick. Most people tend to learn to neutralize sensory conflict with time. So while someone might initially have issues with virtual height, if they persevere, they’ll be able to play without problems.

Sure, most people will get used to it eventually. I'm just wondering what people's first-hand experiences with this are. I'm thinking a lot of it might come from the difference between your body's kinesthetics (the "felt" position of your body) and what your eyes are telling you your position actually is. That sort of thing can really mess with our sense of balance. There's actually a pretty neat little experiment you can do to demonstrate that. Step onto a solid, flat surface and stand on one leg. Stand normally, then close your eyes completely, and try standing on the same leg again. Most people find it unexpectedly harder to do the second one, even though you'd think that it ought not to make that much of a difference.

I'm usually pretty good about VR sickness but one thing that set me off real bad unexpectedly was actually skyrim. Not moving around, I had no problems doing smooth locomotion and not teleporting. It was actually going into a shipwreck. The entire room being at 45 degrees while I'm standing on flat ground really hosed me up after being there for a few minutes.

It's definitely weirder the further things get removed from real life. Not just height or movement, but (for me at least) things like walking up closer to an in-game wall then you ever would in real life, or jumping off a ledge. For whatever reason, those are the two most common things my brain weirdly reacted to initially - the first with a bit of general disorientation, the second with a mixed-up vertigo.

i've never had any difficulty differentiating between game and IRL, even with VR. i do however get motion sickness from excessive headbob in FPS games. and only that.

When I first played Half-Life 2 I viciously attacked any crates and crate-related items I saw, just for the fun of breaking them. IRL pallets looked really, really smashable for days afterwards.

I've been replaying Transcendence lately. It's a spacefaring roguelike game -- gate into a new system, blow up the hostile stations and their guardians, loot the wrecks, sell the loot, upgrade your ship. As the game progresses, enemies get more dangerous, and their loot gets more valuable. It...can break down a bit towards the endgame though. I just destroyed a Gaian Processor, basically a giant nanoassembler with a bunch of thermonuclear cannons on it, that roams around, blowing up everything it encounters and eating the resulting matter to help maintain itself. In the wreck was, among other things, 25 plasma cannons. This in a game where you can typically only use 1 primary and 1 secondary weapon at a time.  On the plus side, my money problems are solved! I've also found stations with 30 segments of diamond lattice armor, one of the best armors in the game...and even the largest playership can only use 6 segments of armor.
