just a general observation from me...

I've tried these first person games and I get extremely nauseated and a blinding head ache after a short time with playing.

I presume that I'm in a very small minority as these type of games sell like hot cakes.

shame really

I forget which games I tried, I know one was Ghost Recon or something like that, Assassin's Creed and one other.

plus I'm really shyte on those control buttons !!!!!!! as evidenced with one of the Madden NFL games...

Is it worth playing? And I ask that as a person who has never played it before.

I have "bought" the game from Epic and have yet to download it. It will be one of those games that will sit there, waiting to be downloaded, and then one day bored silly of the transfer thread I will play one of these games.

As I said, never played it before, and you are not the first person I have seen say the developers have ballsed up the game. As a newbie though, will I be able to play it as I didn't play it before.

Yes for sure I would give it a go in your position. I played for years before I got fed up with the people up top messing about and buggering things up. There is a lot of good content to explore, most of the older stuff was well written before they got lazy and started pushing out c&p content. Just don't waste your money on their crates they sell to fund the game, they are a rip off.
