For Mods/Devs and players with Motion Sickness

I've noticed quite a few players across the forums and Reddit (Links to a few at the bottom) on both PC and console that are basically unable to play since launch due to the game causing intense eye strain and motion sickness. I've heard of a few different theories on why that is and so far have come up with this. 1. FoV slider on PC seems to scale to a 4:3 aspect ratio instead of the 16:9 that a majority of players' monitors are, and then stretching it creating a fishbowl effect due to the vertical not matching what the brain expects from that wide of a field of view. 2. Overly aggressive camera shake making players' eyes constantly have to refocus, causing an almost seasick like feeling. 3. Field of View is set too high/low compared to distance to the screen, suggesting that the screen be moved farther/closer. (I've tested this myself by both moving my monitor and changing the FoV everywhere between 55-105, with minimal to non existent results.) For many people (myself included), the game is virtually unplayable due to this issue. For many of us, this is the first game that has ever had that effect. Being that the first Destiny is one of my top 5 games ever I was pretty excited to be able to play this one with my friends, but a couple of us can't even play for more than 10-15 mins at a time without getting sick. I'm hoping that any other guardians with this issue will comment on this thread to keep visibility for the Devs so that we at least might get a response. Even if you aren't one of the people who is affected this is a very real issue for some of your fellow players so feel free to chime in. Or if you had the issue and managed to fix it, what did you do? With any luck, someone at Bungie will see this and react accordingly. If anyone knows a better place to post this where it is more visible to the Devs than on the forums please share.

He suggests that camera shake plays a large role. Edit: Friend of mine suggested that responders to the post detail their system specs to see if there is a commonality between them. i7 6700k, 16GB 3200mhz RAM, GTX1080, 27" 2560x1440@144hz monitor. Sensitivity set very low, as well as Motion Blur, Chromatic Aberration, Film Grain turned off. Manage well over 60fps so framerate isn't an issue.
