You're experiencing headaches after playing the Overwatch beta for about 30 minutes. This seems unusual since you haven't had it before. Are others noticing the same issue? If so, could there be a solution? It might be related to your sensitivity to fast-paced, cartoony games. You're using a good monitor and aren't sitting too close. Consider checking your game settings, ensuring proper hydration, and taking regular breaks.

I experienced it alongside borderlands. Probably because the game has a playful style, but maybe it's just our unfamiliarity with such designs.

During the open beta, the settings were locked, making it hard to test things right now. Make sure your field of view was sufficient—it can impact the experience.

It's been okay for me. The main issue is from poor opponents. I'm using a 27-inch 1440p screen and set the frame rate to 165Hz. Let me know if that helps with your question.

Try adjusting the settings to reduce the brightness or lower the gamma value. That should make a difference.

Perhaps the interface is running slowly?

The field of view reached its limit. I'll attempt it once the game comes out. What links the controls to discomfort?

If the controls lag, your hand-eye sync could be disrupted and you may experience nausea. Stuttering and low frame rates produce similar issues, along with a high input latency display.

Reduce the settings for better frame rates. Disable anti-aliasing since it may lead to blurriness.

I maintained a steady 60 frames per second with minimal interruptions. AA was already disabled.
