VR Motion Sickness: the new Industry

[Zenbane]

While some 75% of the free-world are trying to start petitions to combat delays in Rift shipping dates, the market is shifting towards making VR-dedicated living a thing we can do without feeling the urge to poop or puke.

Military style electro-frying:

^^^ The most likely candidate for inducing the real Zombie Apocalypse

But in real news, NVidia to the rescue via identifying the Latency root cause:

Can't wait until I can play through Albino Lullaby in one-sitting!

The root cause IMO isn't latency at this point. It's moving around in games in a way that throws off the inner ear, for example playing racing games with the g-forces missing and without your seat physically turning as your car turns.

So far, the only things that have made me feel at all unwell in VR are stuttery frame-rates in American Truck Simulator, and camera movement--particularly hand-held cameras--in 360 videos. The latter way more so than anything in a game.

Extremely happy to hear about this! I'm dying to play this game longer; as is everyone I've shown it to.
