A few month
ago I startet playing Minecraft and after a while I felt sick. This happened every
time I tried to play Minecraft. Sometimes it took 1-2 hours and on other days
it started after a few minutes. The same thing happened when I was watched a let’s
play video about Minecraft on youtube.
I never had
problems like that before while playing what made me believe that it was
related to Minecraft.
After
searching on the internet I was able to find other gamers with the same problem
and there is even a technical term for that…
“Gaming
Sickness” or “Motion Sickness”
Wikpedia
says
“Videogame-Related
Motion Sickness, or VRMS, is a condition where a person exhibits symptoms
similar to motion sickness caused by playing video games.”
The reason
why this happens is the deception or irritation of the sensory organs by
incompatible information. That means our eye perceives a wild movement but our
body isn’t moving. This confuses our brain and causes anxiety which is reflected
in the symptoms.
At the
moment I don’t play Minecraft a lot cause I don’t know how to prevent that
sickness.
What about
you? Have you ever had the same problem?
