I have a weak stomach, and Minetest & FPS games aren’t healthy for it. How do I minimalize the effects of motion sickness in Minetest so that I can play for the longest time?

    It actually can work like that, but only to a limited degree.

    My wife used to get terrible motion sickness from Minecraft but adapted over time to the point where she can play it at least.

    For me the biggest difference in many/most games is adjusting the FoV setting. Higher FoV helps a lot for me. Borderlands in particular defaulted to FoV 75 and was unplayable without adjusting it up to 90-100 instead.

        FoV is “field of view”, the angle from left to right of the world as displayed on your monitor. In my experience you want it around 90-100 degrees, but your preference may vary. I think my wife needed it very low along with a low mouse sensitivity while she got used to it.
