Motion Sickness - still an issue?

When the latest expansion pack came out, there was an immediate outcry; it’s not fun, it’s frustrating, etc. etc.

It then quickly became a “medical condition” push.

Then it was realized it messed with botters, but more importantly, most players took up DF rather well.

So, those suffering from motion sickness - what are you doing? “Regular” flying isn’t back yet… are you still playing?

I don’t typically get motion sickness but dragonriding is very disorienting. The wind lines off the wings and my entire screen turning blue are the problems. To get around it, I use dragonriding as little as possible.

Ground mounts, those dragon ferries, and flight paths still work.

Did you try using the accessibility settings? It’s supposed to help. I haven’t looked at them myself but I thought I saw that they remove some of the excess art around dragonflying.

Those I know are not playing, only playing on the ground where they can, leveling alts or just quit.

Your post comes across as very condescending and disrespectful, just fyi.

They don’t do much of anything.

You should be able to turn those off in settings.

I do. I have reduce motion and keep character centered in the camera turned on. They don’t do anything about the wind lines or turning everything into a blue blur.

It does help the wife some, but still affected by it.

No, the lines don’t turn off.

Oh, I did not know.

Did you turn off full screen effects?

hes upset that he was pulling this same crap attack on players in another thread and i perma blocked him…thus the reason this trolling thread now exists.

The only thing it does is stop the forward movement when it jerks you forward. The speed lines don’t go away. The movement itself is also too fast for some and slowing down doesn’t work, because you keep slowing down or you have to speed back up with the movement and lines again to keep going.

I don’t use it I just use a ground mount and I’m about ready to quit because I’m so far behind.

Thing is, I’m 90% sure I was able to turn them off when I was experimenting with the options that were there. I’ll double check when I get home, but turning off full screen effects should yeet the lines

Ah. You’re one of those ableist D-Bags.

Shove off.

I see. Well maybe blizz should add a way to turn off the lines and blur effect but provide a different visual that shows you have the thrill of the skies buff (better than the little icon in the buffs bar) until they reach the point where they are planning to release pathfinder.

Doesn’t solve the problem. It changes more than just DR stuff, which makes things annoying or difficult in other respects.

We asked them for that in beta. We got ignored. :frowning:

it’s still there just all around the mount, which is right where your looking
