    That gave me such a headache of note. I hated that level so much.

    *performs thread necromancy*

    So for only the second time ever, I get motion sickness in a game. I can't play Far Cry 3 for longer than 45 minutes or so before I have to lie down a bit. I changed the fov so it's not that and I get very high fps but for some reason I get queasy when playing it. After googling it it looks like quite a few people have had the same problem.

    Weird, I never noticed anything out of the ordinary with FC3, unless it's something PC specific (I played on XBox).

    I googled it a bit and I wonder if it's maybe mouse smoothing. I've got a feeling it may be on. Will check next time I play it.

    Check your vertical sync as well.

    v-sync is currently off. Should I put it on rather?

    yeah, try enabling that. It might cause your FPS to drop though, but at least your vertical refresh rate will be in sync and you shouldn't have any screen tearing (if any).
