Descent never made me sick... it's odd, but the only game to ever make me sick was The Elder Scrolls: Daggerfall with head bob and the HUD turned on. I'd get a migraine and be puking in minutes.

That's funny. I used to find myself head weaving while playing Daggerfall to compensate for that, too. :)

Oh wow, do most people use the mouse? I never even thought to do that, I've always played keyboard only.

I can testify to this - I first played this game when it came out and my dad bought it. I was 7 at the time, played it off and on for a few years, sometimes for hours at a sitting, and no motion sickness. I've been playing computer and console games my whole life, including fps and the like, and I recently re-discovered Descent 3. Popped it in, and within an hour I was reeling. :< Time to break out the ginger!

I haven't bought this yet, again. I have the original boxes for all the Descents, and even made some great levels of my own in DEVIL. I used my Flightstick Pro back then, and could do some fancy flying with that thing. Don't think I can hook it up to my laptop now! Fortunately I have a backup USB Stick for when I get around to download them all again.

The sickness and orientation problem was in fact a real plus for me.
Since I didn't had any such problem when playing the descent games back in the days.
But my friends had some.
And therefore i had my revenge for all my losses in doom and need for speed and, and, and..
I really like this series so much!!!!!!!!

I thought i would too. I vaguely remember getting motion sick when i played Descent originally back in the 90s..But now it doesn't bother me at all.
I get motion sickness from playing games like Doom, or Duke Nukem 3d.

I used to get motion sickness from the original when it was released due to the low framrates, but I am doing better now. I still take breaks after one level.
