Sam from The Gamers Lounge writes, "There's a very easy test to see if you'd like Sublevel Zero, the new PC game from Sigtrap Games. I'll even link it here. Go on. I'll wait. All right, did you like what you saw there? Then congratulations, this is the game for you."

The co-founder of Sigtrap Games speaks to VRFocus.
Sucks to read about motion sickness but for me VR has taken me out of this world and into the game world. Maybe if they focused more or using real footage and adding in digital characters the sickness part would lessen. Those tiny old cockpit simulator games way back in the day felt real and never made me feel sick.
He's absolutely right here in what he says. Even if you have 4k in each eye, going at 240fps, that still won't matter in many types of games. The games where you, by design, do not play as a normal human doing normal human things (like in typical walking, flight, driving simulators) will be prone to induce sickness. This is because regardless of the hardware: if you move at different/changing speeds than the user is expecting, they puke; if you swing the camera quickly around left-right, they puke; if you move the camera backwards in space, they puke. Without actually 'jacking in', your body will reject all the interesting movements that make certain games what they are. VR is creatively limiting in many respects, input mechanisms not withstanding.

Due to the fact that we at Power Up Gaming got our fill of upcoming blockbusters several weeks ago at EGX 2016 in Birmingham, it was Play Expo 2016's indie showcase that provided our main source of anticipation heading into the show."
