In SuperhotVR there are multiple acts of self harm; Shooting oneself in the head, jumping to your death. They make up a very very small amount of the game's content. After an update which made those scenes optional, the devs did another update and removed them all together. The VR community has surprisingly responded in a very mature and supportive manner.

LOL, just kidding. They're totally shitting themselves. https://old.reddit.com/r/virtualreality/comments/op018r/all_scenes_alluding_to_self_harm_will_be_removed/ https://steamcommunity.com/games/617830/announcements/detail/2992063678829322337

    I've tried a couple of the Vive models and one Oculus, both for Steam, and also PSVR and some kind of phone thing.

      Damn, that's a shame, give it another generation if the vive and oculus messes with you. But part of that sickness comes from the dissonance between what your eyes and ears are experiencing and what your brain is expecting based on information its receiving from other senses. It's literally your brain fighting the illusion, as the tech improves, as we learn to hijack more and more of your brain's sensory input, the line blurs between what the brain will be capable of discerning. I gotta go, but long story short, our current VR tech is only grabbing like 30% of our sensory bandwidth in the form of audio, visual, and very minor fuck I forgot the word, touch and body positioning. Haptics, better visuals, lighter headsets, and other tech will push that percentage to a point where shit will drastically change in how we think of reality. as we completely hijack the inputs of the brain in the vat. sorry, in a hurry.
