Why PUBG: Battlegrounds can trigger motion sickness
First-person mode puts you behind the character's eyes, and PUBG's own help pages describe two settings that change how that view moves: the field of view and motion blur. The support site gives no menu tab for either. It names no head bob or camera shake setting.
- Motion blur, which leaves an afterimage according to the travelling speed
- A first-person field of view left low: the slider runs from 80 to 103 degrees
- The First Person Perspective mode, where you play as if looking through the player's eyes
