Just as an anecoditcal observation. I’ve had two cases of people who would claim to feel sick and dizzy in VR when they tried it, but then when I put them in a cool social situation in VR they reported not feeling dizzy any more. It’s like the dopamine of being in a cool/interesting situation (mostly social) seems to make the brain overcome the dizziness?
Theory: Seeing other people happily doing something is a stronger signal to the body about whether it’s okay than proprioception error. Consider, seeing other people puke is gonna make you want to puke. Maybe seeing people not puke at all does the opposite.
