I'm playing through Quake 4 for the first time and I've just come to the middle point of the game with the long first-person cutscene.
Never before has a game made me physically ill. That sequence put me in a cold sweat and had me nearly vomit.
A powerful event to be sure, and well-portrayed, but I'm not sure I like that level of immersion when it comes to these kinds of situations. For one, it's not exactly what I thought I was signing up for when I got the game.

Most oldish FPSs like Doom or Wolfenstein 3D and mostly anything before Duke Nukem 3D made me feel a bit nauseous and gave me headaches. Modern FPSs don't do that when I'm playing them, but I can't watch someone else play without getting nauseous. That's why I hate first-person cutscenes.
Hope you had a good night sleep despite that episode.
