Other FPS make me nauseous, I can't play Alien: Isolation or Serious Sam without getting woozy. MWO doesn't have that effect on me,


To the guy with the migraines, I'm sorry, those are intense and I've had only one when withdrawing from a couple prescriptions, taught me to always taper off medicine, no quitting cold turkey. I couldn't handle light or sound and crawled under my bed with my blankets to ride it out. Actually threw up from the pain alone.





El Bandito, your wife seems a little like my wife, which is why I insist on a chat program with push to talk. She likes to come in to ask how bad my nonexistent diarrhea is or if that rash on my balls has gone away. She loves Skype because I can't mute the mic fast enough to keep her nonsense from reaching my buddies.

Not as bad as my brother's wife, he has a fancy headset that comes with a little mute toggle and when we're in an intense WoW raid and he's calling out directions she mutes him and he goes a few minutes yelling at us to do this or that then realizes hes muted.


I swear wives just live to **** with their husbands.

Mine is similar to Johnny's. But the results were less benign. I had eye surgery and waited several days before "straining my vision" as directed by my Dr. When he gave the all clear I played a few rounds that evening. Needless to say my vision was not fully restored. I did more team damage during that run of matches than I have done in two years of play. I mean A LOT of team damage. Repeatedly. Quit and gave the healing process a few more days to take hold. My team was appreciative.


I didn't have anything as serious as you two, but I did have my eyes tested and played this game before. The eye drops that force your eyes to dilate had not quite worn off and I felt like I was playing through a fisheye lens. It was headache-inducing.
