Just place a fan on the floor in front of you. Bam! No nausea. Because now you body instinctively knows your position and orientation in the space you’re in.
It’s such a simple thing but it really works!
Comment on Valve announces three new products: the Steam Frame, Steam Machine and Steam Controller

As someone who experienced nausea. I’ve tried all kinds of tricks. They all help, just like Dramamine or those bands with the beads that 1/10 pain.
It took quite a while to get over the nausea. A lot of starting and stopping with slightly longer sessions each time.
I fully expect that most people would not be willing to do that but I received the system as a gift and I really liked it. I wish they had more longer games. I’m so tired of the games that are 30s of concept and then do it over-and-over.

You really shouldn’t push through the nausea. That’s how it gets worse.
If you start feeling sick. Put it down.
But yes. And that’s why the games are still such a limited selection compared to flat screen.
No long campaigns in VR.

I recently watched a video where some dude had the VR treadmill and used it for Skyrim VR 2hrs per day for months

Yeah but he has to mod an old game to do that. Have you tried Skyrim VR?
It’s jank af. It gave me instant nausea because your head is the camera AND they kept the head bobbing in the game!
