Did people get motion sickness from these. I know VR is diff, but the PS VR2 make my head hurt after 20 min or so.

No, because they weren't for games and they pretty much had always-on video passthrough, which greatly reduces the chances of getting nausea.

No delay with the passthrough video? Still can be disorienting. Maybe it’s just me.

Right, hence I said "greatly reduces the chances". I know some people are still affected.

I think with careful, controlled exposure, they could greatly lessen this feeling (or maybe even eliminate it), but it'd be a long road and I question how important it actually would be to them, so I don't actually suggest it.

Personally, I love VR. I've always been an avid fan of 3D TV/Games and VR, and I always will be. I long for the day that AR is properly implemented.

But I also understand that others don't share that love, for personal or even physiological reasons.

I wanna love VR but it makes me sick, which is odd because I fly drones with goggles and don’t get sick even with all the loops and flips.
