Motion sickness can quickly turn a fun gaming experience into a nauseating ordeal. If you're playing *Avowed* and feeling queasy, don't worry—we've got you covered. Here's how to tweak the settings to minimize that unpleasant sensation.
In most first-person games, motion sickness often stems from head movement, field of view, and motion blur. *Avowed* is no exception.
Minimizing Head Movement and Camera Shake
Disabling head movement and camera shake is often the key to a smoother experience. Navigate to the Settings menu, select the "Game" tab, and find the "Camera" section. Adjust the following settings:
- Third-Person View: On or Off (your preference).
- 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 balance between immersion and comfort. A little tweaking can make a big difference.
Adjusting Field of View and Motion Blur
If eliminating head bobbing and camera shake isn't enough, head to the "Graphics" tab in the Settings menu. Focus on these settings:
- Field of View: Start with a lower Field of View and gradually increase it until you find a comfortable setting. This might require some experimentation.
- Motion Blur: Reducing or completely disabling motion blur often helps alleviate motion sickness. Try setting it to zero and adjust as needed.
Still Feeling Sick?
If you're still experiencing motion sickness, continue experimenting with the settings above. Consider switching between first-person and third-person view as needed. If all else fails, take a break, have some water, and try again later. Your comfort is key!
These settings should significantly improve your *Avowed* gameplay experience. Enjoy the game!
