I just bought elder scrolls IV: oblivion yesterday and to my utter dismay, my computer was too old to run it properly.
Well, taking all the good effects off and reducing the resolution to 800x600, I started to play. Only to realize that I got video game motion sickness. Man!
The last time I got that when Doom was released and now again! I like that game and even considered upgrading my computer for it, but playing and just thinking about playing will make my stomach turn and head spin. Life is so unfair. |

I don't think alcohol works, it makes me even more nauseas. |

I think that, if you get video game motion sickness you shouldn't play it  |

Can't you even play for 5 minutes?
Try short intervals and then increase them. Oblivion is a great game, I would easily buy it if I wasn't poor.
(I recently stumbled upon a lame ass glitch though) |

dear me... Oblivion does look teh sexy however, so i shall be requisitioning a copy as soon as finances permits. My new PC should manage it, if it doesnt there is likely to be much lamenting and foul language to come  |

Chugs in places on my x2 4400 (oclocked to 4800 speed) 7800gtx 2gb ram <20 fps. I can't run it at max resolution unless I like to play it as a slideshow, so run it at 1280x1024 with all the bits turned on. Good excuse to spend the extra on another card for SLI maybe
Looks nice, not sure I have the time or inclination to devote to it though - looks a bit of a life sapper :S |
