Conquer Motion Sickness in Avowed: A Guide to Optimal Settings
Many players experience motion sickness in first-person games. If Avowed is leaving you feeling queasy, these settings can help.
Recommended Settings to Minimize Motion Sickness in Avowed
The primary culprits of motion sickness in FPS games are often head movement, field of view, and motion blur. Let's tackle these in Avowed:
Eliminating Head Movement and Camera Shake
Begin by adjusting camera settings to minimize movement. Navigate to Settings > Game > Camera and modify the following:
- 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%
These adjustments should significantly reduce motion sickness. Experiment slightly to find the ideal balance between immersion and comfort.
Optimizing Field of View and Motion Blur
If head movement adjustments aren't sufficient, proceed to the graphics settings. In Settings > Graphics, locate the "Field of View" and "Motion Blur" sliders:
- Field of View: Start with a lower value and gradually increase until you find a comfortable setting. This may require some experimentation.
- Motion Blur: Disabling or significantly reducing motion blur often helps alleviate motion sickness. Try setting it to zero and adjust as needed.
Persistent Motion Sickness?
If you still experience motion sickness, continue fine-tuning these settings. Consider switching between first-person and third-person perspectives as needed. If all else fails, take a break, drink some water, and try again later. Don't force yourself to play if you're feeling unwell.
These settings should greatly improve your Avowed experience. Enjoy the game!
