    As someone who used to get sick in cars and boats, I got it, so you might as well

    If the technology interests you, then sick or not, you’ll probably like it. Won’t play every day, but it’ll be a nice experience.

    Start with games with not a lot of motion (beat saber for example), then move to more intensive games. You’ll get sick after 15mins, then 20mins, then 25… until you last for a couple hours, and at this point you’ve built your resistance.

    Just stop playing when you feel sick and try again an hour later when you feel better or a few days later

    But yea, VR isn’t straightforward or an obvious purchase. It requires time and will, and money, obviously

    It’s clearly a luxury and you need to have too much money or be really motivated to purchase it

      Personally that’s what I’d like to do anyway. I’m saying that to discuss the growth of the technology among the masses.

      Assuming it doesn’t make me violently ill, i like tech and gaming enough to keep it around otherwise. But the potential for the issue and the committal involved off the bat are difficulties for any new, different-enough tech.
