No motion sickness, but most VR games make me disorientated after a while and I just don't enjoy them very much. They're fun for a couple of hours once in a great while, but I never see myself doing it as a daily hobby.

VR is like flying cars. It's a stupid idea that sounds cool.
VR still sucks, but didnt boats make people want to throw up. Then trains, then cars. They still do sometimes, but it'll be worth it
I think the challenge is that with transportation, there are approaches to reduce the impact such as looking at the horizon, sitting in the front where the motion impact isn't as severe, etc. With VR there's less way around it, and fewer ways to redirect your perception (yet). Which is why the percentages are higher than car users
I know I'm not really in a virtual world. A helmet isn't going to fool me.
Women, as mentioned previously, are more likely than men to get VR sick. Asian people are more likely than other ethnicities to experience motion sickness in general.
~~It doesn't make sense. Also, I can't see any scientific evidence or sources that underpins this article mentioned. It's kinda racist, in a sense.~~
This proved to be a fact. My apologies.
You've got to get used to using new technologies. When iPhone was first introduced, people confused that there's no button to control things in the screen. The same thing is happening here.

What we can do about feeling sick is to ignore VR and never use it again.
