Until VR came along I had long lost interest in modern games for that very reason. Everything was the same. Nothing I hadn't already played. VR gaming has breathed new interest for me with gaming. Currently 150+ hours Into the Radius.

I get you, but I failed at developing my VR legs :c

Do a little each day with comfort settings on. I don't know anyone who wasn't able to get through that stage within a month. The moment you feel sick though, stop. Wait an hour or two before continuing.

I'll try to play around with the settings, that is like the last thing for me to try...

The worst feeling is when my character jumps or falls, that is when I feel the most sick.

It was the same for me when I got started. I would suggest sticking with one game at first too. That way you get used to the motion of that particular game and your brain will eventually know what to expect when you jump or turn (actually you should start with snap turning).

My gf used to get horribly nauseous at first. After a few weeks she was killing it every night in population one (a game with a Lot of crazy motion). Good luck!
