It must be impossible for you to watch TV or any movie as they are all recorded at 24 FPS.

Some people easily get motion sickness and it can be aggravated by many factors, including low and/or irregular framerates.

I'd be interested to know if people complaining about motion sickness at low fps have that issue with all games, or only FPS/TPS. And if they have the same issue with "first person" segments in movies (which are pretty damn rare in the first place, and basically always at a very consistent but low framerate)

You don't control a movie, those two aren't comparable

I can control a movie. Play, pause, fast forward , rewind....

You must know you are being purposely disagreeable, right? If not, I would love a clear explanation on how you think that is comparable. Educate me.

Sorry, figured it was an obvious joke, but sometimes that doesn't come across well in text form.

But to look at it at a different angle, GTA 5 on the Xbox 360 and the PS3 sold millions, and typically ran at mid 20s FPS, same as a TV. I don't recall there being an issue or outcry of it causing motion sickness, and yet with million in sales, it would have been played by enough people.

Why didn't this have such issues claimed? Or was there reports and claims it caused issues that I missed?
