If you're diving into the immersive world of *Avowed* but find yourself battling motion sickness, fear not! Here are the best settings tweaks to keep your gameplay smooth and your stomach settled.

The Best Settings to Reduce Motion Sickness in Avowed

First-person games often trigger motion sickness due to head movement, field of view, and motion blur settings. *Avowed* is no exception, but with a few adjustments, you can enjoy the game without the queasiness.

Start by tackling head movement and camera shake, which can be major culprits. Navigate to the Settings menu and select the "Game" tab. Scroll down to the "Camera" section and adjust the settings as follows:

  • Third-Person View: On or Off (this doesn't affect motion sickness directly)
  • 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 your motion sickness while playing *Avowed*. Feel free to tweak these settings to find the perfect balance of immersion and comfort.

If the above changes don't fully alleviate your symptoms, head to the Settings menu and click on the "Graphics" tab. Look for the "Field of View" and "Motion Blur" sliders under the basic settings:

  • Field of View: Start by lowering the "Field of View" slider. Gradually increase it to find your comfort zone, which may take a few tries.
  • Motion Blur: Turn off "Motion Blur" or reduce it to zero. Adjust as needed to see what works best for you.

What If You’re Still Feeling Motion Sick?

If you're still feeling queasy, continue to experiment with these settings. You might also find relief by switching between first-person and third-person views. If all else fails, don't force it—take a break, hydrate, and come back later when you feel better.

These are our top recommendations for reducing motion sickness in *Avowed*. With these adjustments, you can fully enjoy the game without the discomfort.
