Uuuurgh! My Head Hurts

Paladin2000 · 08-13-2004, 03:13 PM

Uuuuuurgh! After playing for 4 hours, my head hurts like hell and I am feeling a little quesy. Does anyone get motion sickness from playing this type of game?

No. You could actually have a real sickness. Have you eaten anything (I know I don't eat or drink when playing Morrowind)

My last meal was 5 hours ago. I always have a cup of coffee while playing games, not to mention cigarettes too...

I used to get motion sickness from playing Wizardry 8; Morrowind has always been okay, though, for me. I think Wizardry is a bit jerkier. It's the first person view, can really do your head in!

First person games always give me motion sickness after playing for more than 1 hour. I need to stop playing for a least 30 minutes to 1 hour or I will throw up (seriously).

Now that I am feeling much better... It is time to continue my adventure. Till my head hurts again, so long!

Really, Wizardry never gave me motion sickness. Except for the mine tunnel ride.

No, I never get motion sickness when playing first person view game. Maybe you just spend too long on the computer and you need a rest or two.

Pala, I'm with you. I get the same thing (though it's not my stomach, I never feel like throing up)... it helps to look away when you're running on a straight line, or focus on a point next to the monitor, you still can see what's going on, but it helps. Okok, you could just have a break, but one doesn't want to be a sissy when it comes to playing morrowind, right?

Cheers
