Why Assassin's Creed Origins can trigger motion sickness
The game is played from a third-person perspective, and the camera follows Bayek as he climbs nearly every structure and travels on foot, horseback, camel-back or boat. On PC you can widen the view with the FOV slider. Ubisoft fixed a PC bug in patch 1.4.1 where the FOV setting could make the camera twitch in the menu. On PlayStation and Xbox, no camera comfort setting turns up in the sources opened.

Frequently asked questions
Does Assassin's Creed Origins have an FOV slider?
On PC, yes. Screenshots of the PC graphics settings, reported by DSOGaming and GamingBolt before launch, show an FOV slider. Ubisoft's patch 1.4.1 notes fixed a camera twitch tied to the FOV setting. The sources opened do not give the range or show the slider on consoles.
Can you change the field of view in Assassin's Creed Origins on PS4 or Xbox One?
Not in any source opened. The FOV slider is reported for the PC version only.
Can you turn off motion blur in Assassin's Creed Origins?
The sources opened do not list a motion blur setting on any platform, so we cannot confirm one. Check the display and graphics menus on your platform.
