Conquer Motion Sickness in Avowed: Optimal Settings for a Smooth Gameplay Experience
Many gamers experience motion sickness while playing first-person games. If you're finding Avowed triggers nausea, these settings can help alleviate the problem.
Recommended Settings for Motion Sickness Reduction in Avowed
The primary culprits for motion sickness in first-person games, including Avowed, are often head movement, field of view, and motion blur.
Minimizing Head Movement and Camera Shake
To reduce motion sickness, adjust the following settings within the "Game" tab, under "Camera":
- Third-Person View: Your preference (on or off).
- Head Bobbing: Off
- Head Bobbing Strength: 0%
- Local Camera Shake Strength: 0%
- World Camera Shake Strength: 0%
- Camera Sway Strength: 0%
- Animated Camera Strength: 0%
Experiment with these settings to find the optimal balance between immersion and comfort.
Adjusting Field of View and Motion Blur
If eliminating head movement doesn't fully resolve the issue, navigate to the "Graphics" tab in the settings menu. Adjust:
- Field of View: Start with a lower setting and gradually increase it until you find a comfortable level.
- Motion Blur: Reducing or completely disabling motion blur often helps significantly.
Persistent Motion Sickness?
If you still experience motion sickness, continue experimenting with the above settings. Consider switching between first-person and third-person perspectives as needed. If all else fails, take breaks, hydrate, and try again later. Don't force yourself to play if you're feeling unwell.
