Are they just using shitty headsets, such as the Oculus ones? I've never had this issue with HTC Vive OR Valve Index...

I think it's more likely they made a game that was just poorly designed for VR, moving players when they don't expect it a lot and the like.

I'm honestly curious about the science behind why VR makes some people motion sick. My first time using VR I never got motion sick once and never have since then. And my sister on the other hand got motion sick instantly when she tried it.

Edit: Fixed my atrocious spelling, must've been high or something.

Maybe I'm just old, but I never want to adopt VR, just like I never wanted to adopt 3-D Tvs.
