Best Settings for Reducing Motion Sickness in Avowed

Motion sickness in first-person games often stems from head movement, field of view, and motion blur. Avowed is no exception.

Disabling Head Movement and Camera Shake

To minimize motion sickness, start by adjusting head movement and camera shake. Navigate to Settings > Game > Camera and modify these settings:

• Third-Person View: Your preference (on or off).
• Head Bobbing: Off
• Head Bobbing Strength: 0%
• Local Camera Shake Strength: 0%
• World Camera Shake Strength: 0%
• Camera Sway Strength: 0%
• Animated Camera Strength: 0%

These adjustments should significantly reduce motion sickness. Experiment to find the optimal balance between immersion and comfort.

Adjusting Field of View and Motion Blur

If head movement adjustments aren't sufficient, tweak the Field of View and Motion Blur settings. Go to Settings > Graphics and adjust the following sliders:

• Field of View: Start with a lower value and gradually increase until you find a comfortable setting. This may require experimentation.
• Motion Blur: Reducing or eliminating motion blur often helps alleviate motion sickness. Try setting it to zero and adjust as needed.

Persistent Motion Sickness?

If motion sickness persists, continue experimenting with these settings. Consider switching between first-person and third-person perspectives. If all else fails, take a break, hydrate, and try again later. Don't force yourself to play if you're feeling unwell.

These settings offer the best approach to reducing motion sickness in Avowed.
