And it turns out I’m not in the minority. The latest figures gathered in 2022 estimate that between 40-70% of users experience sickness within 15 minutes of exposure. For women specifically, it’s even higher, up to 80%. And we don’t know why

What figures? This is shit journalism when they reference a "figure" and then don't provide a source.

What headsets were they using and what software were they running? Because this is going to have a tremendous impact on the so-called "rift-sick" factor.

Not going to speak for anyone else but thus far, the only thing that makes me sick is roller-coaster-type demos.

Hmm, I haven't really gotten sick so far, but now I'm wondering if I just didn't experienec it long enough. Feels like my tolerance has been decreasing with age too, some first-person games just make me want to throw up nowadays.

I played with the Oculus Rift CV1 for a long time and never really got over the this. If I played regularly I sort of got used to it, but I still found that having a fan on and a bottle of water nearby was necessary to avoid getting a headache or nausea. If I ever had a period of a few weeks of not playing it, my "tolerance" quickly went back to zero.
