Anyone else having issues with motion sickness?
I’m highly susceptible to it, it’s mostly only applied to VR so far but for some reason playing this on my PC has me feeling sick and sweaty after about half hour. Sucks too as PC with M/KB I find a
far superior way to play as opposed to using a controller (not to mention having everything at the highest settings), but at least PS5 doesn’t make me want to puke.
I can make a controller work I guess, but has anyone found a solution for this? Something about the camera or the way the game moves my brain finds disagreeable.
Have you maxed out the FOV?
the FOV in the game is sadly really narrow even on max settings.
the camera is way too close too.
I also think the way Leon moves, and the way the devs programmed the camera to move can add to feeling motion sick for some people.
the issue IMO being that the camera doesn't move smoothly.
in most games, as you walk straight forwards, the camera and character model move smoothly with a consistent speed... let's say 2km/h.
in REmake 4 however leon and the camera move "more realistically". Even if you move perfectly straight forward, Leon will take a step and then slow down a bit as he moves his foot forward to take the next step, this gets worse if he is wounded or was recently hit.
the camera ALSO moves at those inconsistent speeds. meaning if Leon slows down for half a second, so does the camera, and soon after when he speeds up for a second again, so will the camera too.
so the camera will go from (again these are made up speeds for the sake of demonstration) 2km/h to 1km/h and back to 2km/h at semi-regular intervals, which is also changed slightly whenever you are even minimal change the movement direction of Leon, which is why I said semi-regular intervals.
because the way he moves his feet, and therefore the speed at which he moves, and the interval between him speeding up and down, changes every time you turn a corner, get hit, sidestep, etc.
for me this doesn't make me motion sick, but it adds to the sluggish feeling of the game as a whole, and why IMO the original game feels way better to play.
but I can see that maybe adding to making people motion sick.
if you add this irregular camara speed with fast mouse movement, I could totally see it being an issue for some.
add to that how close the camera is and how narrow the FOV is and you got a bunch of causes that can all add up if you're sensitive to them.
Leon Kennedy is a very popular video game character, and the voice actor Nick Apostolides has been playing the role since the remake of Resident Evil 2.
Nick enjoyed creating the one-liners for Leon, including his favorite one, "You want to get ugly? Let's get ugly," which he wrote himself.
The same face model used for Resident Evil 2 remake was used for Leon in Resident Evil 4, but it was not Nick's face that was scanned, but a model named Edward Bataluda.
One of the IGN commenters joked that 99% of the budget for the game went into animating Leon's hair, which Nick found amusing.
Nick talked about the subtle change he made to Leon's voice for Resident Evil 4, giving him a more hardened attitude compared to the previous game.
One commenter pointed out the oddity of calling the President's daughter a "baby eagle" when using code names, and Nick admitted it was a good point.
Another commenter joked about Leon's expensive jacket, to which Nick joked that he would like to see the character's closet.
Nick expressed excitement about the return of Mike, another character from the series.
Nick teased that the "hasta luego" line makes a return in Resident Evil 4 remake, and he had fun recording it
