More Camera Movement While Idling?

[Samayl]

Hello! I'm super hyped for this latest patch! I loaded up a new save file to get used to the new additions to the game, but once I loaded in, I immediately noticed that there is now a camera bob while standing still. There appears to be much more camera movement when running now, and even when standing still. I play with the camera movements dampened because I get very horrible motion sickness if it is not turned on. 

After the latest patch, I have noticed there is more a predominant sway/bob to the camera while doing things while the camera is idle. This includes : gathering, harvesting, and just in general interactions where the camera is idle. I can 100% feel that there is a slight sway to the entire camera during these times. Approx 5 minutes in game, and I'm already feeling the nauseating effects of this new change. I may be able to get used to it, but it concerns me.

Were idle camera movements effected by the game's latest change in aiming with weapons? I will continue the play the game and see if I can build tolerance to this new camera movement. Not sure if an actual change has been made, or it's a side effect of not having playing the Long Dark for a week.

I have pretty bad Video Game Sickness some Games I can't really play I get to where I get dizzy and want to throw up, for some reason I don't recall TLD ever making me sick though. I read that you can build up tolerance and eventually get to where Games won't make you sick anymore, so I think this is why I may not be getting sick with TLD. But if it still makes you sick and you aren't able to build up tolerance, I heard there are options... Benadryl can help but it can make you sleepy.

@Samayl Yes this "natural" view motion was added in the new update, you can turn on/off  a dampener for it (won't remove the effect fully but does lessen it) in the game menus under Options>Accessibility.
