Kind of feeling dizzy and sick after playing MotM

Anyone has similar feeling? I feel fine when using the Riftroaster and some other demos,but kind of sick when using MotM,is this because of the light?

    I'm not sure why but I didn't like MotM either. I think the controls are what did me in. Something about the way they handle mouse control and torso rotation. I haven't revisited the demo since I got my VR legs though, so maybe it isn't as bad as I remember.

    Got the same feeling. Also think it was because of the control scheme

    MotM is extremely laggy for me, like I'm drunk. Beautiful but pushing the limits of my hardware, that's for sure.

    Out of all the demos I tried, it made me feel the worst as well. I think it's all the particle effects slowing down the processing. It's a good example of why developers need to focus more on developing something that will run smoothly at 60 FPS then trying to add in all the "next gen" lighting and whatnot.

    That's my guess, anyway. Maybe they just coded something wrong that's not obvious but causes nausea.

    I am pretty sure it is the control scheme (at least in my case), moving in one direction that doesn't match your body while looking in another direction gave me motion sickness that lasted the rest of the day.

    I have problems with it as well. When moving the camera with the orientation tracker it somhow has this strange lag. It feels as if the position is set a step back every second frame or so. When moving the view with the mouse it does not have this lag.
