Okay I have a confession to make....

I haven't finished a Doom since Doom 3 (2004).

I have loved every minute of Doom (2016) and Doom Eternal, but I haven't finished either of them.

I get too motion sick to play video games like that anymore.

Even Titanfall I have to take a break between levels.

I'll finish them someday, I promise...

That sucks! I don't get any motion sickness, so no personal recommendations, but have you tried some of the common tricks (like increasing FoV, disabling motion blur)?

Playing on a high refresh display with frames higher than 60 might help too.

I have noticed that I get less motion sick in some games on my new 240hz screen, but unfortunately I still get it.

That said, I'm unsure what my actual fps is in Doom/E but I'd wager somewhere around 100.
