I know how hard it is to get past VR sickness. But once you do, it becomes very hard to shake your guts. My first VR sickness was Assetto Corsa. But 10 years later I am very hard to shake out of VR. The game must be messed up, or the controls must be non-intuitive. But now I dogfight in planes and spaceships, drift down mountain roads. climb mountains and jump off of cliffs to escape enemies in the Forest. Just fight through it. New players should start with wave-based games. Make the world come to you. After a while, you can move to teleporting around. Then you go to free movement. Pretty soon you are doing things you could not do in the beginning.
I completed this journey on the Quest 3 via Steam using an NVIDIA RTX 3060 Ti V2 OC. It is just as beautiful on the Q3 as what you see on the PSVR 2. Kudo's to the developer for making something so beautiful and perfectly optimized for all platforms. I wish I could say the same concerning Kayak VR, but that simulator really needs to be better optimized.
As awe inspiring as this sim is, the shark experience it offers can’t even touch that presented to us from the original PSVR Worlds. That was pure perfection in terror, especially if you played the experience while connected to a home theater (surround sound) system. The shark encounter in this game looks more/less what you would actually see from watching the Animal Planet and seeing a shark swimming around a shark cage near the waters surface.
It was so fun and immersive that I played it for an hour just in the training area. I used the stick to turn while moving AND turning my head and everything. No problems🤷🏼♂️ I never really have issues w/ sickness tho. If you don't have motion sensitivity, it's a must-buy, imo.
You found your VR Kryptonite. I think we all ending up playing that one game that will make us have to level up our VR legs. Definitely trying playing with a fan in front of you. Also, take breaks often and you will begin to be able to play longer until your VR legs have be reforged..lol
For motion sickness a tip is to lower the brightness level and maybe set performance setting to - Game default - so the PS5 doesn't force anything weird behaviour that's not intended for the game. And for the game maybe try the swim function on or off ?
My immunity to motion sickness has been punctured by this one. After 15 mins the sense of unease envelops me and I have to surface back in reality. But I'll try click turning as a means to swimming with the humpbacks.
Is there anyway to move around with just the thumb sticks? Waving your hands all over the place is cumbersome. It's hard to get up and down and to places
yes right thumb, up or down, r2 forward and right thumb left or right . The up and down and forward are gained by getting flippers and a weight belt. I had no issues with sickness
Damn I'm sorry you had so much problem with the motion sickness. I'm honestly surprised considering your a veteran. I've been playing VR for a long time myself and have only experienced motion sickness one time and that was playing aircar standing up on pcvr. Sucks because I did enjoy the demo and while I agree there's not much of a game there it's still great for what it is
@@chrislair6832 Ikr! It's crazy! Even 24h later and I still feel like crap lol I've also seen a few people on social media having the same issue. It seems like the developer needs to work something out.
I’m blessed to be immune to motion sickness. I’ve never had it in my 40+ years. I can play this game for an hour or more with no issue, I just get a bit bored and go back to Behemoth or something else. Don’t get me wrong, it’s amazing, but you can only swim around for so long. I’m sorry that it bothered you as much as it did.
It took me a long time to get used to PSVR2. I used motion sickness medication (over the counter) and that helped, limited my play even if meant 5, 10, 15 minutes of gameplay, sat down rather than standing, and finally got used to it after many weeks. These days I have no issues in GT7 as I drive in VR a lot, but some games I need to re-adapt if I haven't played non-driving games for a while.
I did not throw up and played the Demo like 25 min, but I felt a bit sick and it took an hour to pass. I played many vr2 games, I agree people should be careful with Subside, though it is beautiful ❤
Hi mate. I wonder if we had similar experience with call of the mountain, if you played it? Psvr2 is still giving me some motion sickness but it’s getting better. However, in call of the mountain, the super slow turn speed gives me bad motion sick and incredible eye strain. I turn on snap turning and so much better. I don’t know if the slow turn speed did it but my god, it’s a horrible feeling. Like I managed to go through resident evil village as my first game on psvr2 and couldn’t wait to jump back in, Call of the mountain just did me in. Snap turning and lower brightness helped me loads and I really ended up liking the game lots.
@@grahamkelly8662 Absolutely! I played Horizon COTM when I first got my PSVR2 headset, and it was a nightmare with smooth turning lol I ended up playing it with snap turning enabled. But then again, at that time I didn't have my VR legs so maybe if I try it again now, it would be fine.
@ YES! I beat you. Finally someone who gets motion sickness on a game and I don’t. I tried subside demo and was absolutely fine. Really clear sharp visuals May I ask what troubled you? I’m going to check some reviews and see if the game is worth buying. Unsure how long it is and I suspect it will take about 5 hours or less to finish and no replay ability. Although it was relaxing so I may give it a shot. Are you buying it?
@@grahamkelly8662 I read that in Daredevil's voice lol I think it's the slow speed of the smooth turning that made me sick. Enjoy mate, I'm glad that it's not causing you issues! No, I think I'm gonna stay away from Subside for a couple of weeks 😂
@@Hulkamaniac418 I’m so shocked that this is making people sick. I’m fine with it. I can’t see anything that would make anyone sick. For me it’s always games with fast movement that gives me motion sickness. Mostly when turning and as this game is almost stationary, moving and turning slowly, so I don’t feel anything. If you’ve bought the game, I hope it improves for you because I’m the motion sickness king and know all about it. I get hyped, put on an fps game, after 10-20 mins sometimes I’m in world of trouble. Mainly, Get hot quick Slightly feel sick INCREDIBLE eye strain where the pain gets so bad, it’s unbearable and I absolutely have to take headset off But when I don’t feel too sick vr is great. I just played this game for 30 mins and then call of mountain for 2 hour and felt great. Although a trick for me is to play in winter/autumn. Make sure window is open and no heating on. Cold room and that really helps.
Played the demo for over 1 hour and no problems. Only ever got motion sickness the very first time I played VR playing eve Valkyrie. Stop telling people not to try VR not everyone has your problem, you just turn people away from it! Are you using your hands to turn or the thumbstick?
@@janchan2258 I just wrote a post explaining why I haven't been able to publish my Alien Rogue Incursion review yet, but hopefully, it will be ready by the end of the week.
Did you realize that there is teleport in the movement options? You are doing a disservice to the game and developer advising to not buying it because motion sickness, since you could have simply said to use teleport instead.

You can turn of the swimming options in the settings in the game to help with motion sickness.
I lasted 5 minutes, so you did better than me!
I wish I could just be lowered into the cage with the shark!
My favorite memory from PSVR
Feel better!
@@matthewpilla4323 Ouch. I hope you're feeling better now mate! We're in this together lol

Someone mentioned swim turning in options, maybe check that mate,
@@sadukar_7th_legion Thanks for the tip!
Yeah turning off the swim turn option made all the difference for me.
This...
@@GamecatFarmerBrownsame for me ! No motion sickness after that just fun ❤
I guess being a seafarer for so long has a great benefit. Never experienced any sickness in vr. Just downloaded this demo, will test it out
I haven't had time to try the demo yet. I can't wait to try it.
Seems like you've experienced the bends but in VR that's pretty crazy.
When VR becomes dangerously real lol

It's a game i played in one hour, and I'm kinda being i want play more
I’m pretty bad with some games like GT7 sadly, but this I was fine.
I use something before i use my headset and I have no issues no dizziness nothing 😊😊😊
Never have gotten motion sickness in vr i hope this wont be the first I'll check out the demo thanks
Infact i felt a bit strange... maybe i could had motion sickness if i was new to vr
Still immune to motion sickness... no problem after about an hour and a half

I can't seem to find the demo?
