Where the comfort work matters in Horizon Call of the Mountain
Climbing keeps the world sliding vertically through your view and dangles you over drops, so height response and motion response arrive together. As the PSVR2 launch showpiece it was built to demonstrate exactly that spectacle. If heights alone set you off, that is vertigo rather than motion sickness, and it deserves its own pacing: short climbs first.
