Those who struggle with motion sickness, what games do you play/recommend? (lemmy.world)

Over the many years I've tried to get into gaming (Dark Souls, Cats, Valorant, Hogwarts, Portal, etc), I've always backed out due to motion sickness. I'm getting really tired of never truly enjoying any gaming experience so it'd be nice to have some non-motion-sickness-inducing games to try out.

I relate. First person games are more likely to cause it for me, but there have even been a few third person that do it. Stray was horrible for me, I got stuck within 20 minutes! Interestingly enough, BOTW and TOTK do not cause me any problems despite being action based (though they are third person). I guess how they handle the camera and other video issues it’s the reason? I’ve played nearly 70 hours in TOTK and over 150 in BOTW and never felt green in the least.

Otherwise, I try to stick to turn based games and third person for the most part. Turn based games reduce the frequency that I have to spin the camera around to get my bearings. I’m lucky that I prefer rpgs, so there’s a good collection of third person turn based games to choose from. Persona 5 for example. No issues at all.
