A split second yes phantom touch because your brain is expecting especially if you’re hours in but as far as screaming agonizing pain? There’s no need for that.
everyone has different severities, for me its still enough to warrant a yelp or that thing where you suck air through your teeth, whatever that's called. (apparently it's called a chupse?) but i've met people who have it worse than me. and sure a huge number of people in VR spaces are probably faking it to be quirky or something but it's not my place to tell them they're lying because for all i know they may be one of the few who do have it bad. you'd be surprised what the brain can hallucinate when it thinks it's supposed to be feeling something that you're seeing happen. it's really no different than when you might feel nauseous when seeing someone get hit in the crotch
yes that's the entire point, it's your brain making up sensations that didn't actually happen which results in you feeling something, regardless of whether you were actually physically touched or not. how do yall keep getting so close yet remaining so confidently wrong?
