Motion Sickness from rotation smoothing
This game caused both my wife and I motion sickness due to the rotation smoothing. This should be an easy fix. We both really want to play this but get motion sickness within half an hour.

I see this game is made in Unity.. The way you fix this is you remove any kind of Lerp being done to the mouse input and instead rely on the raw input. At least put it behind a bool that we can toggle on/off in the main menu.

People who play a lot of FPS will get this MUCH quicker than those who don't since we rely on 1:1 movement. Right now, this feels like we're swimming underwater.

I strongly advise that you have motion smoothing defaulted to off. It is a very bad first impression when your players are getting sick. Most of them wont even know why it's happening.

Hey MesaMarshall! Sorry to hear that you were experiencing this issue. As you found out by now, there is indeed an option to turn the motion smoothing off, which should mostly prevent motion sickness. Thanks a lot for your feedback. We will take it into account!

You know whats funny, I'm not one who's prone to motion sickness but one time I was playing and I ended getting really nauseous dizzy and ended up throwing up, and I remember thinking "this smooth aiming is not helping" I thought maybe the taco bell I had earlier was off but I played today and ended up getting sick again after aa while of playing, though this time I stopped before it got too bad. I was confused cause once again I very rarely, if not at all, get motion sick, but I guess I found what does it lol. It was nice to know that I wasn't the only one and that the dev even went as far as to set an auto anti motion sickness setting. I really like this game so I'm glad I can play without getting motion sickness!
