Having problems with motion sickness?
Go to Accessibility Settings. Click the box to use alternate full screen effects. And from the dropdown menu selection the option to disable dynamic camera movement and keep the screen centered.
With those options the view you see in-game looks just like regular flying, with the exception of a few muted wind effects just around your mount.
If that still isn’t enough, you only need a minimal amount of dragonriding to get through the campaign tutorial quests. After that, just pretend you’re in any other expansion and are confined to the ground for the next 8 months. Just use your ground mount and flight points. Maybe Blizzard will release regular flight halfway through this expansion.
Still not satisfied? Dragonflight expansion probably isn’t for you. Play WOTLK Classic or find another game.

And you can’t ignore that many people simply do not find it fun and resent having to use it or walk.

Dragonriding may take a bit of practice to get the hang of.
Dropping the system, because some people “do not find it fun”, after it’s only been out a day isn’t good gamemaking.
Most players complaining now are ones who probably already had their minds made up before Dragonflight launched, spent 10 minutes trying it in-game, then came here to the forums to complain.

have you looked at all the accessibility options? go under options in the menu —>accessibility----> General and there is a motion sickness setting and camera shake. I get bad motion sickness and played with those settings and it really helped! Good luck!

It is after all a fair question.
I get that. Blizz does abandon things too fast. But all they have to do with this one is enable regular flying and give more options.

My mind was not made up! Looks so fun! Is fun, not good at it, at all! My 13 year old can stay flying for 15-20 min and not hit the ground once. Me on the other hand, cannot fly worth a piss. This was geared toward a different generation…I did fix all of the game effects to help with the dizziness and vertigo, however, I just am not able to “do it”. I look forward to regular flying, but for now, this dragonrider is grounded. =(
You don’t need the reflexes of a 13-year old to dragonride.
Here’s some tips for dragonriding.
Sorry you’re going through this OP.
Just know, that a lot of stuff you can get to by just boosting up and gliding for the most part. As you progress through the campaign, there’s some very very easy Dragon Glyphs to get. All you have to do is double space bar to boost up to get them.
From there you can upgrade the dragon to make things even easier, but for now you should be able to do all the content by mainly boosting upwards and gliding.
Until then just keep looking for the easy to get glyphs, or look them up online to ease up your dragon flying woes. Again, I think 99% of things you can do just boosting and gliding so I dont think you have to fret about it being required.
Even in the dungeon that requires flying, you can just fly through the cyclones and get to all the content.
I’ve been talking all day about the fact that some people (myself included) don’t like it, so what are you on about?
Well if you don’t like it don’t play it why you think it’s called Dragon flight not ground flight hence the word dragon I like it it’s cool it’s Unique this is the first expansion that lets you fly right away without have to work for anything I think it’s cooling unique I played during Wrath of which king I played all through the expansions I guess you just can’t please everybody
I agree I think those people should move on play something else that’s not made for them in my opinion
They didn’t drop anything. Dragonriding is one of the best things they have ever added to the game. Finally flying is fun and engaging. Now if we could just get dynamic weather! You’ll get your boring noclip sky swimming later. Much later.
I agree some people like to complain a lot if it doesn’t go their own way right away
Unfortunately it seems like the majority of people, when hearing we disabled people need an option O P T I O N to use slower traditional flight, just brings out all the hatred of disabled people. i have never seen a space so full of people openly mocking others for their disabilities… its really disheartening to know that there is no acceptance nor understanding from the forums, just hatred.
… as i was typing this post
just wow… sorry I’m disabled, can you please stop though?

Stick to your ground mount then, that works totally fine.

Go collect all glyphs.
Seriously your complaint is basically that of a Pokemon fan not being able to defeat the Elite 4 with their team of level 10 Pokemon.
Just. Play. The. Game.
If you have motion sickness, adjust the settings, you are already given options for the game to adapt to your minority condition.
And if your condition is SO severe you can’t play even with those settings adjusted, you either:
- Need treatment
- Find your way around dragon riding until air swimming is available again
- Politely ask for other alternatives
- Skip this expansion
