Bioshock Inifinite is making me dizzy

It could be just me...

I've recently started to play Bioshock Infinite, love the game; but for the first time (ever) I'm starting to get a little dizzy when playing it. I've played tons of FPS in the past, never had an issue like this so I don't think its related to the game; I have reduced the mouse sensitivity, which helped a little.

That being said, could it be the size of my new monitor? I recently replaced my old Dell 24" monitor with an Asus 27" VG278 backlight 144hz display. Could it be caused by the larger panel/view? :confused:

Have you tried playing with the FOV, if you've gone up a monitor size and res but sit at the same distance, then changing the FOV might help.

LOL

Ha ha! that's something I haven't tried yet, changing the FoV.

And to be honest it didn't even occur to me to try sitting a little farther away from the monitor...I'm glad I asked.

Hi guys, I finished the game over the weekend and didn't get dizzy at all. I simply moved my monitor back per your suggestion; it's now about three inches away from the wall, and didn't have to adjust the FoV. So for me, adjusting the mouse sensitivity and moving the monitor back was the trick. Thank you again everyone.
